The Cell

Robert Hooke
• Coined
the term
“cell”
Matthias Schleiden
• All plants are
made of cells
Theodor Schwann
• All animals are
made of cells
Rudolf Virchow
• Cells can only
arise from
pre-existing
cells
Cell Theory
1. The cell is the basic unit of
structure.
2. The cell is the basic unit of
function.
3. All cells arise from pre-existing
cells.
Organelles
• specialized structures of cell that
allow it to carry out essential life
processes such as nutrition,
excretion, respiration, response,
movement, and reproduction.
Cell types
Prokaryotic—no nucleus,
circular DNA, ribosome

Eukaryotic—larger, nucleus,
linear chromosomes, membranous
organelles
Prokaryotic Cells
• Have no membrane-
bound organelles
• Include true bacteria
• On earth 3.8 million years
• Found nearly everywhere
• Spores in each breath;
intestines
• Naturally in soil, air, hot
springs
nucleoid (DNA)

ribosomes

food granule

prokaryotic
flagellum

plasma membrane
cytoplasm cell wall
Eukaryotic Cells
• Have numerous internal
structures
• Various types & forms
• Plants, animals, fungi, protist
• Multicellular organisms

Eukaryotic cell structure
• Nucleus is the control center of the
cell
1. Membrane bound (nuclear
envelope)
2. Contains nucleoli; synthesizes
ribosomal RNA
3. DNA in chromosomes (DNA and
proteins)
