7 -1 Life Is Cellular The Discovery of the Cell 7. 1: Life is Cellular Early Microscopes In 1665, Robert Hooke used an early compound microscope to look at a thin slice of cork, a plant material. Cork looked like thousands of tiny, empty chambers. Hooke called these chambers "cells. " Cells are the basic units of life. Slide 1 of 31 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show
7 -1 Life Is Cellular The Discovery of the Cell Theory In 1838, Matthias Schleiden concluded that all plants were made of cells. In 1839, Theodor Schwann stated that all animals were made of cells. In 1855, Rudolph Virchow concluded that new cells were created only from division of existing cells. These discoveries led to the cell theory. Slide 2 of 31 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show
7 -1 Life Is Cellular The Discovery of the Cell The cell theory states: • All living things are composed of cells. • Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things. • New cells are produced from existing cells. Slide 3 of 31 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show
7 -1 Life Is Cellular Exploring the Cell Electron Microscopes Electron microscopes reveal details 1000 times smaller than those visible in light microscopes. Electron microscopy can be used to visualize only nonliving, preserved cells and tissues. Slide 4 of 31 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show
7 -1 Life Is Cellular Exploring the Cell Transmission electron microscopes (TEMs) • Used to study cell structures and large protein molecules • Specimens must be cut into ultra-thin slices Slide 5 of 31 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show
7 -1 Life Is Cellular Exploring the Cell Scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) • Produce three-dimensional images of cells • Specimens do not have to be cut into thin slices Slide 6 of 31 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show
7 -1 Life Is Cellular Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes Cells come in a variety of shapes and sizes. All cells: • are surrounded by a barrier called a cell membrane. • at some point contain DNA. Slide 7 of 31 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show
7 -1 Life Is Cellular Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes Cells are classified into two categories, depending on whether they contain a nucleus. The nucleus is a large membrane-enclosed structure that contains the cell's genetic material in the form of DNA. The nucleus controls many of the cell's activities.

7 -1 Life Is Cellular Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes are cells that contain nuclei. eu = true kary = nucleus Prokaryotes are cells that do not contain nuclei. pro = before (and pro rhymes with "no") REMEMBER: EU-TRU-PRO-NO!!!! (Eu=true nucleus, pro = no nucleus) Slide 9 of 31 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show
7 -1 Life Is Cellular Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes Prokaryotic cells have genetic material that is not contained in a nucleus. • Prokaryotes do not have membrane-bound organelles. • Prokaryotic cells are generally smaller and simpler than eukaryotic cells. • Bacteria are prokaryotes.

7 -1 Life Is Cellular Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes Eukaryotic cells contain a nucleus in which their genetic material is separated from the rest of the cell. Slide 11 of 31 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show
7 -1 Life Is Cellular Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes • Eukaryotic cells are generally larger and more complex than prokaryotic cells. • Eukaryotic cells generally contain dozens of structures and internal membranes. • Many eukaryotic cells are highly specialized. • Plants, animals, fungi, and protists are eukaryotes.
