GENERAL BIOLOGY 1 THE CELL THEORY Our body is made up of cells. Each of which is about five of a millimeter. It is too small to be seen by the naked eye yet it contains practically all the information about you: your eye color, blood type, sex, etc. CELL THEORY - refers to the idea that cells are basic unit of structure in every living thing. - Fundamental scientific theory of biology according to which cells are held to be the basic units of all living tissues. CELL THEORY Zacharias Janssen Time : 1590 invented the first compound microscope. Compound Microscope A microscope with a high resolution and uses two sets of lenses providing a 2-dimensional image of the sample. CELL THEORY Robert Hooke Time : 1665 used light microscope to look at thin slices of plant tissue (cork) *Saw tiny chambers and coined the term "cell“ CELL THEORY Robert Hooke Time : 1665 observed dead cells in a thin cork slice through a self- made microscope and published this information in his book 'Micrographia'. He gave the name ' Cell'.  CELL THEORY Anton Van Leeuwenhoek Time : 1673 First people to use a microscope to study nature and first person to see tiny living organisms in a drop of water. *Termed these microorganisms 'animalcules' CELL THEORY Anton Van Leeuwenhoek Time : 1673 designed an improved microscope and observed first free- living cells (Bacteria) CELL THEORY Robert Brown Time : 1831 a Scottish Botanist discovered 'nucleus' CELL THEORY Felix Dujardin Time : 1834 A French Zoologist, discovered the semifluid living material inside a cell and named it Sarcode (semifluid contain of protozoan) CELL THEORY Matthias Schleiden Time : 1838 German botanist, concluded that "All plants are made up of cells". *credited for developing first two tenets of cell theory (with Schwann) CELL THEORY Theodore Schwann Time : 1839 German zoologist concluded that "All animals are made up of cells" *credited for developing first two tenets of cell theory (with Schleiden) CELL THEORY Jan Evangelista Purkinje Time : 1840 sarcode was renamed as 'Protoplasm' - the First Substance' MODERN CELL THEORY Rudolph Virchow Time : 1855 concluded that "Where a cell exists, there must have been a pre-existing cell" *credited for developing the third tenet of the cell theory. MODERN CELL THEORY Rudolph Virchow Time : 1858 presented the idea " Omnis Cellula e Cellula', which means that all living cells arise from pre-existing cells. Postulates of Cell Theory are; All living organisms are composed of cells. Cells are the basic unit of life. All cells come from pre-existing living cells Let's have a quiz.. 1. Who concluded: "all animals are made of cells'? A. Rudolf Virchow B. Robert Hooke C.

(ribosome) Smooth E.R. (no ribosomes) Endoplasmic Reticulum Functions: Connects membrane Moves material Process protein Smooth E.R. – production & storage of carbs & lipid Golgi Apparatus Description: Flattened stack of tubular membrane Found near cell membrane Function: Sorts & packs protein into vesicle & transports them Lysosome Description: Contains digestive enzymes Functions Digests food, bacteria, worn out organelle Vacuole Description: Sac (membrane bound) Functions: Stores food, enzyme, and other material Support Mitochondrion Description: Double membrane bound organelle Function: Power house of cell – produces energy for growth, development, and movement Centrioles/ Basal bodies Description: Small structure outside nucleus formed from microtubules Functions: Helps in cell division (mitosis) Helps in forming flagella and cilia Chloroplast Descriptions: Double membrane bound organelle Pigment chlorophyll is present in inner membrane Functions|: Captures light & converts it into chemical energy Pigment chlorophyll (photosynthesis)
