Q1 | General Biology Cell Theory, Cell Organelles, Cell Types and Structure Origins of The Cell Theory The Cell Theory 1595 - Zacharias Janssen ✧ all living organisms are made up of one or more cells first compound microscope was invented ↳ simple or complex, microscopic or macroscopic, 1665 - Robert Hooke unicellular or multicellular published Micrographia containing drawings of cork 1674 - Anton Van Leeuwenhook ✧ the cell is the basic structural and functional unit of observed organisms in drops of water through a simple life microscope ↳ all biological or living processes that occur within the 1838 - Matthias Schleiden body for it to survive occur in the cells concluded that all plants are composed of cells 1839 - Theodor Schwann ✧ cells arise from preexisting cells concluded that all animals are composed of cells ↳ postulated by Rudolf Virchow 1855 - Rudolf Virchow proposed that cells came from other existing cells, The Modern Cell Theory completing the cell theory Expansion of the original cell theory that incorporates molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics, and the like Robert Hookie (1665) 1.

Shoot System - above the ground ↳ appears longer 2. Root System - below the ground ↳ flexible and strong cell walls ↳ supports immature region of plants Plant Tissues Sclerenchyma 1. Dermal Tissues: Epidermis ↳ thick cell walls filled with lignin ↳ outer layer of tissue surrounding the entire ↳ water transport, resistance to various plant stresses ↳ covers and protects the plant ↳ makes the cell tough and hard ↳ controls gas exchange and water absorption ↳ mostly dead when they reach maturity ↳ supports mature region of the plant Cuticle ↳ minimize water loss can be classified as ↳ protects cell from bacteria and other organisms fibers - long, slender In Roots - grouped in bundles, commercially ↳ root hairs - long, slender projections important ↳ increase the surface area for absorption of sclereids water and minerals - shorter than fibers - in seeds of coats and nutshells In Stems - stone cells - gritty texture ↳ trichomes - hair produced by epidermal cells ↳ protects the plant from sunlight 3. Vascular Tissue ↳ reduce transpiration (conserve moisture) ↳ transport water and nutrients In Leaves Xylem ↳ guard cells (lower epidermis) ↳ transports water and minerals from roots to ↳ contains chloroplast and pores (stomata) leaves ↳ gas exchange ↳ two types of conducting cells (both hollow and nonliving): 2. Ground Tissue tracheid - elongated, obliques, tapering ↳ fills the inner part of the cell end walls parenchyma, collenchyma, sclerenchyma vessel elements - long tubes made of individual cells, open at each and are Parenchyma joined end to end to make a tube ↳ most abundant tissue Phloem ↳ big, thin - walled cells ↳ sucrose and other organic compounds from ↳ large vacuoles and air spaces in between cells roots to leaves ↳ support and storage of food sieve tube elements / sieve cells - ↳ penetration of light and regulation of gas elongated, arranged to form continuous exchange sieve tubes, has cytoplasm, no nucleus companion cells - lie adjacent to and share cytoplasm with sieve cells, Collenchyma provide metabolic support and ↳ thick - walled, uneven regulation ↳ appears in bundles underneath epidermis Q1 | General Biology Cell Theory, Cell Organelles, Cell Types and Structure Animal Structural System 2.
