Chapter 3 Cells and Tissues Lecture Presentation by Patty Bostwick-Taylor Florence-Darlington Technical College © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  Part I: Cells  Cells are the structural units of all living things  The human body has 50 to 100 trillion cells © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  Overview of the Cellular Basis of Life  The Cell Theory 1. A cell is the basic structural and functional unit of living organisms 2. The activity of an organism depends on the collective activities of its cells 3. According to the principle of complementarity, the biochemical activities of cells are dictated by their structure (anatomy) which determines their function (physiology) 4. Continuity of life has a cellular basis © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  Overview of the Cellular Basis of Life  Most cells are composed of four elements: 1. Carbon 2. Hydrogen 3. Oxygen 4. Nitrogen  Cells are about 60% water © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  Anatomy of a Generalized Cell  In general, a cell has three main regions or parts: 1. Nucleus 2. Cytoplasm 3. Plasma membrane © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd. Figure 3.1a Anatomy of the generalized animal cell nucleus. Nucleus Cytoplasm Plasma membrane (a) Generalized animal cell © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  The Nucleus  Control center of the cell  Contains genetic material known as deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA  DNA is needed for building proteins  DNA is necessary for cell reproduction  Three regions: 1. Nuclear envelope (membrane) 2. Nucleolus 3. Chromatin © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd. Figure 3.1b Anatomy of the generalized animal cell nucleus. Nuclear envelope Chromatin Nucleus Nucleolus Nuclear pores (b) Nucleus © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  The Nucleus  Nuclear envelope (membrane)  Consists of a double membrane that bounds the nucleus  Contains nuclear pores that allow for exchange of material with the rest of the cell  Encloses the jellylike fluid called the nucleoplasm © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  The Nucleus  Nucleolus  Nucleus contains one or more dark-staining nucleoli  Sites of ribosome assembly  Ribosomes migrate into the cytoplasm through nuclear pores to serve as the site of protein synthesis © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  The Nucleus  Chromatin  Composed of DNA wound around histones (proteins)  Scattered throughout the nucleus and present when the cell is not dividing  Condenses to form dense, rodlike bodies called chromosomes when the cell divides © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  The Plasma Membrane  Transparent barrier for cell contents  Contains cell contents  Separates cell contents from surrounding environment © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  The Plasma Membrane  Fluid mosaic model is constructed of:  Two layers of phospholipids arranged “tail to tail”  Cholesterol and proteins scattered among the phospholipids  Sugar groups may be attached to the phospholipids, forming glycolipids © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd. Figure 3.2 Structure of the plasma membrane.

Glycoproteins in the glycocalyx act as an adhesive or cellular glue 2. Wavy contours of the membranes of adjacent cells fit together in a tongue-and-groove fashion 3. Special cell membrane junctions are formed, which vary structurally depending on their roles © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  The Plasma Membrane  Main types of cell junctions  Tight junctions  Impermeable junctions  Bind cells together into leakproof sheets  Plasma membranes fuse like a zipper to prevent substances from passing through extracellular space between cells © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  The Plasma Membrane  Main types of cell junctions (continued)  Desmosomes  Anchoring junctions, like rivets, that prevent cells from being pulled apart as a result of mechanical stress  Created by buttonlike thickenings of adjacent plasma membranes © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd.  The Plasma Membrane  Main types of cell junctions (continued)  Gap junctions (communicating junctions)  Allow communication between cells  Hollow cylinders of proteins (connexons) span the width of the abutting membranes  Molecules can travel directly from one cell to the next through these channels © 2018 Pearson Education, Ltd. Figure 3.3 Cell junctions.
