Initial Observations of Cells
Cell wall
– Outer non-living part of
plant cells
Protoplasm
– Interior living portion of the
cell
– Nucleus
Contains the genetic
information of the cell
– Cytoplasm
Fluid part of the
protoplasm
– Organelles

Different Kinds of Cells
Prokaryotic
– Structurally simple cells
– Lack a nucleus
– Lack most other organelles
– Bacteria
Eukaryotic cells
– More complex
– Have a nucleus
– Have a variety of organelles
– Plants, animals, fungi, protozoa and algae
– Typically much larger than prokaryotic cells

– 1-2 micrometers in
diameter

The Structure of Cell Membranes
Cell membranes
– Thin sheets composed of phospholipids and
proteins
Fluid-mosaic model
– Two layers of phospholipids
Fluid
– Has an oily consistency
– Things can move laterally within the bilayer.
Mosaic
– Proteins embedded within the phospholipid bilayer
4-10 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
The Phospholipid Bilayer
Phospholipid structure
– Hydrophobic tails
– Hydrophilic heads
Bilayer
– Hydrophobic tails of each
layer associate with each
other.
– Hydrophilic heads on the
surface of the bilayer
Cholesterol
– Hydrophobic
– Found within the
hydrophobic tails
– Keeps the membrane
flexible

The Plasma Membrane
4-14 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
The Endoplasmic Reticulum
Consists of folded membranes and tubes throughout
the cell
Provides a large surface area for important chemical
reactions
– Because it is folded, it fits into a small space.
Two types of ER
– Rough
Has ribosomes on its surface
– Sites of protein synthesis
– Smooth
Lacks ribosomes
Metabolizes fats
Detoxifies damaging chemicals
produces lipids, including
steroids
4-15 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
After the rough ER synthesizes a molecule, it
packages the molecule into transport vesicles.
4-16
The Golgi Apparatus
Stacks of flattened
membrane sacs
Functions
– Modifies molecules that
were made in other
places
– Manufactures some
polysaccharides and
lipids
– Packages and ships
molecules
4-17 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Traffic Through the Golgi
Digestion
– Of food taken into
the cell
Destruction
– Disease-causing
organisms
– Old organelles

Peroxisomes
4-22 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Vacuoles and Vesicles
Membrane-enclosed sacs
Vacuoles
– Larger sacs
– Contractile vacuoles found in many protozoa
Forcefully expel excess water from the cytoplasm
Vesicles
– Smaller vesicles

The Endomembrane System ̶
Interconversion of Membranes
Membranes are converted from one membranous
organelle to another.
4-26 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Energy Converting Organelles
Mitochondrion
– A small bag with a large
bag stuffed inside
– Larger internal bag is
folded into cristae
Cristae contain proteins
for cellular respiration.
– Releases the energy
from food
– Requires oxygen
– Uses the energy to
make ATP
4-27 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Energy Converting Organelles
Chloroplasts
– Sac-like organelle
– Contain chlorophyll
– Perform photosynthesis
Uses the energy in light to
make sugar
– Contain folded membranes
called thylakoids
Thylakoids stacked into
grana
Thylakoids contain
chlorophyll and other
photosynthetic proteins.
– Thylakoids surrounded by
stroma

Ribosomes
4-31 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Cytoskeleton
Provides shape, support and movement
Made up of
– Microtubules
– Microfilaments
(actin filaments)
– Intermediate filaments
4-32 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Centrioles
Two sets of
microtubules arranged
at right angles to each
other
Located in a region
called the centrosome
– Microtubule-organizing
center near nucleus
Organize microtubules
into spindles used in
cell division

Nuclear Components
Contains chromatin
– DNA + proteins
– Becomes condensed during
cell division into chromosomes
Surrounded by double layer of
membrane
Nuclear membrane contains
pores to control transport of
materials in and out of nucleus
Contains one or more nucleoli
– Site of ribosome synthesis
Contains nucleoplasm
– Water, nucleic acids, etc.

Getting Through Membranes
Diffusion
Facilitated diffusion
Osmosis
Active transport
Endocytosis
Exocytosis
4-38 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Diffusion
4-39 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
The Rate of Diffusion
Depends on
– The size of the molecule
Smaller molecules diffuse faster.
– The size of the concentration gradient
The greater the concentration difference,
the faster the diffusion.

Diffusion in Cells
4-41 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
The Direction of Diffusion
Determined solely by
the concentration
gradient
Diffusion that does not
require energy input is
passive.
Example:
– Oxygen diffusion

Active Transport
Opposite of diffusion
Moves molecules
across a membrane UP
their concentration
gradient
Uses transport proteins
in the membrane
– Specific proteins pump
specific molecules
Requires the input of
energy
