Study Notes

Cell Types: Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic

Cells are classified into prokaryotic and eukaryotic types, both crucial for life.
Prokaryotic cells, the earliest life forms, lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
Eukaryotic cells evolved from prokaryotes around 2.7 billion years ago and contain a nucleus.

Key Organelles and Functions

Cell Wall: Provides structure and shape to plant cells, fungi, bacteria, and some protists.
Lysosome: Known as "suicide bags," these organelles digest excess or damaged cell parts and invading pathogens.
Nucleolus: The largest structure within the nucleus, responsible for ribosome production.
Ribosomes: Small structures associated with protein synthesis, found on the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER).

Characteristics of Prokaryotes vs. Eukaryotes

Prokaryotes do not have membrane-bound organelles; eukaryotes do.
Eukaryotic cells possess a defined nucleus and chromosomes, unlike prokaryotic cells.
Eukaryotic cells include organisms such as plants, animals, and fungi.

Historical Context of Cell Theory

Matthias Schleiden (1838): All plants are made of cells.
Theodor Schwann (1839): All animals are composed of cells.
Rudolf Virchow (1855): Cells arise only from pre-existing cells, forming the basis of cell theory.

Assessment and Creativity in Cell Studies

Comic strips must include all required elements, be neat, organized, and factually accurate.
Each organelle's function should be conceptually clear and creatively represented in projects.
Authentic creativity is encouraged in presentations, highlighting originality and engagement.

Visual Elements in Cell Documentation

Clear depiction of organelles and their functions is essential.
Organelles in diagrams must be properly labeled and positioned for clarity.
Projects should exhibit attention to detail and neatness to enhance presentation quality.
