Learning Outcomes

Topic 1:

Cell Structure and Organisation

Identify organelles of typical plant and animal cells from diagrams, photomicrographs and as seen under light microscope using prepared slides and fresh material treated with an appropriate temporary staining technique: ƒ chloroplasts, cell membrane, cell wall, cytoplasm, cell vacuoles and nucleus. Identify the following membrane systems and organelles from diagrams and electron micrographs: ƒ Endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, Golgi body and ribosomes. State the functions of the various membrane systems and organelles. Compare and contrast the structure of typical animal and plant cells. State, in simple terms, the relationship between cell function and cell structure for the following: ƒ Absorption – Root hair cells ƒ Conduction and support – Xylem Vessels ƒ Transport of oxygen – Red Blood Cells Differentiate cell, tissue, organ and organ system. *Use knowledge gained in new situations or to solve related problems.

A Brief History 1635 – 1703 Robert Hooke

Some Terms and Definitions A cell is a unit of life. It consists of protoplasm. Protoplasm: ƒ A mass of living matter in which endless chemical activities are carried out out.

Protoplasm of a cell comprise: o Nucleus, Cytoplasm and Cell surface membrane

Structure of an Animal Cell

Structure of an Animal Cell

The Nucleus

The Nucleus

Found in the cytoplasm of the cell. Contains the organism’s genetic material in the form of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid).

Functions Controls all cellular activities e.g. the synthesis of proteins. Is involved in cell division.

Organisation of Genetic Material Chromatin Æ Chromosome In the human cell, there are 23 pairs of chromosomes (except sex cells/gametes).

DNA

Nucleolus – plays a role in formation of ribosomes in the cell.

Nucleus

Chromatin – contains hereditary material (DNA). During cell division, chromatin threads condense into chromosomes during cell division

The Nucleus Nuclear Envelope/membrane – separates the nucleus from the surrounding cytoplasm

Nucleus Chromosome

Chromatin

Nuclear Pore – allows some substances to pass through (e.g. RNA) but not others (e.g. DNA)

Nucleus

Structure of an Animal Cell

The Cytoplasm

Organelles

The region where most cell activities occur. Consists of o Cytosol (semi-fluid medium) surrounding the nucleus and organelles Organelles: ƒ Nucleus (not part of cytoplasm) ƒ Mitochondria ƒ Chloroplasts ƒ Vacuoles ƒ Endoplasmic reticulum ƒ Golgi Body/Apparatus ƒ Ribosomes

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Comprise a network of membrane-enclosed spaces. Originates from outer membrane of the nucleus Two types of ER: Rough ER • Ribosomes attached to outer surface. *Site of synthesis of proteins.

Smooth ER • Lacks ribosomes. *Functions include synthesis of lipids and cholesterol and detoxification of drugs and poisons.

5

Smooth ER and Rough ER

Formation of ER vesicles

Golgi Body/Apparatus

Golgi Body/Apparatus

Comprise a stack of membrane-enclosed sacs and vesicles. Function Receives lipids and proteins made by the endoplasmic reticulum and modifies them chemically before repacking them into vesicles which are then transported to other parts of the cell.

Golgi Body

6

Mitochondria (mitochondrion)

What are lysosomes?

A double-membraned organelle. Function Involved in the release of energy from sugar molecules during cellular respiration. Energy gy is released in the form of molecules called ATP (adenosine triphosphate).

Vacuoles

An Animal Cell

Fluid-filled sacs enclosed by a membrane (known as tonoplast in plants). Can be found in both plant and animal cells. Functions? vesicles

Animal Cell

Cell surface membrane or Plasma membrane Surrounds cytoplasm externally Partially permeable membrane. Functions ƒ Controls substances entering or leaving the cell. ƒ Transfer chemical messages from cell exterior to interior. ƒ Keeps the cell contains in place O2 H2O CO2

7

Plasma Membrane

The Plasma Membrane is a Phospholipid Bilayer

A FluidFluid-Mosaic Model

Plant Cells

Cell Wall Composed of mainly of cellulose Plasmodesmata present Functions Protects the cell from injury Helps the cell to maintain its shape Prevent the cell from absorbing too much water.

8

Chloroplast Contains chlorophyll Site of photosynthesis in plant cells.

Structural feature

Adaptation of feature to function

Circular and biconcave in shape

This increases surface area to volume ratio for the diffusion of oxygen into and out of the cell at a higher rate.

Does not have a nucleus

Has a thin and elastic plasma membrane

Enables cytoplasm of red blood cells to contain more haemoglobin molecules to maximise oxygen carrying capacity Provides flexibility, allowing the cell to squeeze through narrow blood capillaries
