Just read it. Okay?

1. Plant & Animal Cells

2. Robert Hooke discovered the
first cells. Cork Cells were
thought to have been these
cells.
Anton von Leeuwenhoek was
first to observe one celled living
things. Examples of these were
bacteria and parameciums.

3. The Cell Theory
All organisms are composed of one or more cells.
Cells are the smallest living things.
All organisms living today are descendents of an
ancestral cell.
Cells arise only by division of previously existing cells.
The cell theory (proposed independently in 1838
and 1839) is a cornerstone of biology.

4. Two Fundamentally Different Types of Cells
A prokaryotic cell
A eukaryotic cell

5. Eukaryotes and
Prokaryotes

6. Animal and Plant Cells Have More
Similarities Than Differences

7. Cytosol
Cytoplasm refers to the jelly-like material with organelles in
it.
If the organelles were removed, the soluble part that would
be left is called the cytosol. It consists mainly of water with
dissolved substances such as amino acids in it.

9. Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and
Function
1. Nucleus
 Nickname: “The Control Center”
 Function: holds the DNA
 Parts:
1. Nucleolus: dark spot in the middle of the
nucleus that helps make ribosomes

2. Ribosomes
 Function: makes proteins
 Found in all cells, prokaryotic and
eukaryotic

3. Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
 Nickname: “Roads”
 Function: The internal delivery system of
the cell

14. Endoplasmic Reticulum
 2 Types:
1. Rough ER:
 Rough appearance because it has
ribosomes
 Function: helps make proteins, that’s why it
has ribosomes
1. Smooth ER:
 NO ribosomes
 Function: makes fats or lipids

4. Golgi Complex
 Nickname: The shippers
 Function: packages, modifies, and
transports materials to different location
inside/outside of the cell
 Appearance: stack of pancakes

5. Lysosomes: circular, but bigger than
ribosomes)
 Nickname: “Clean-up Crews”
 Function: to break down food into
particles the rest of the cell can use and
to destroy old cells

19. Cell suicide (suicide is bad for
cells, but good for us!)
(The lysosome is not found
in plant cells)

 Nickname: “The Powerhouse”
 Function: Energy formation

Breaks down food to make ATP
 ATP: is the major fuel for all cell activities that
require energy

7. Vacuole (central)
 Function: stores water

This is what makes lettuce crisp
 When there is no water, the plant wilts
The Central Vacuole Controls Turgor Pressure

28. Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and
Function
8. Chloroplasts
 Function: traps energy from the sun to
produce food for the plant cell
 Green in color because of chlorophyll,
which is a green pigment

29. Chloroplasts
Think of the chloroplast as the solar panel of the plant cell.
