They also have structures and other security measures that regulate the entry and exit of people. 7 Our cells also rely on biomolecules that provide shape and rigidity to them. In addition, our cells manage to become selective to the molecules that will move through it. 8 How can one distinguish the major parts of the cell? 9 Learning Competency At the end of the lesson, you should be able to do the following: Describe the structure and function of the major organelles (STEM_BIO11/12-Ia-c-2). 10  Learning Objectives At the end of the lesson, you should be able to do the following: Distinguish between the different structural components of the plasma membrane. Describe the diverse roles of proteins in membranes. Compare the structure and function of microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules. 11  Learning Objectives At the end of the lesson, you should be able to do the following: Describe the function and composition of cytoplasm. Describe the structure and function of the cell wall. 12 Overview of the Regions of the Cell The cell has three major divisions, namely, the plasma membrane, the cytoplasm, and the nucleus. 13 Overview of the Regions of the Cell The cell consists of both membrane-bound and non- membrane-bound organelles. 14 How do the major cellular structures help in the different cellular processes? 15  Structural Components of the Plasma Membrane Roles of Roles of Structure Lipid Bilayer Membrane Proteins Plasma Membrane Cytoskeleton Cytoplasm Cell Wall The plasma membrane is the cell’s primary barrier. 16  Structural Components of the Plasma Membrane Roles of Roles of Structure Lipid Bilayer Membrane Proteins Plasma Membrane Cell membrane or plasma membrane separates the cytoplasm from external Cytoskeleton environment. Cytoplasm It comprises the following: ❖ phospholipids ❖ glycolipids Cell Wall ❖ cholesterol ❖ glycoproteins ❖ membrane proteins 17  Structural Components of the Plasma Membrane Roles of Roles of Structure Lipid Bilayer Membrane Proteins Plasma Membrane Each of the phospholipids consists of the following: Cytoskeleton ○ head region phosphate group Cytoplasm hydrophilic ○ tail region Cell Wall two fatty acid chains hydrophobic 18  Structural Components of the Plasma Membrane Roles of Roles of Structure Lipid Bilayer Membrane Proteins Plasma Membrane Phospholipids make up the phospholipid bilayer. Cytoskeleton ○ two phospholipid layers Phosphate heads face the Cytoplasm cytoplasm and the cell’s exterior. Fatty acid tails are sandwiched. Cell Wall 19  Structural Components of the Plasma Membrane Roles of Roles of Structure Lipid Bilayer Membrane Proteins Plasma Membrane The fluid mosaic model describes the membrane structure. Cytoskeleton ○ mosaic of different molecules such as proteins, sugars, and cholesterol Cytoplasm ○ fluidity due to its natural viscosity Cell Wall 20  Structural Components of the Plasma Membrane Roles of Roles of Structure Lipid Bilayer Membrane Proteins Plasma Membrane Membrane fluidity is determined by: ○ the “kinks” in the fatty acid tails of Cytoskeleton the phospholipids ○ the cholesterol molecules which act Cytoplasm as regulators of fluidity Cell Wall 21  Structural Components of the Plasma Membrane Roles of Roles of Structure Lipid Bilayer Membrane Proteins Plasma Membrane Selective permeability is an important property of the lipid bilayer, in which it Cytoskeleton only allows certain molecules to move into and out of the cell.

Cell Wall The cytoskeletal elements can be observed by using fluorescence techniques. 27  The Cytoskeletal Elements Intermediate Microtubules Microfilaments Filaments Plasma Membrane Cytoskeleton Cytoplasm Cell Wall In addition to providing a structural framework to the cell, the cytoskeleton also serves other functions such as movement of organelles, macromolecules, and chromosomes. 28  The Cytoskeletal Elements Intermediate Microtubules Microfilaments Filaments Plasma Membrane These consist of helically arranged globular proteins called tubulin. Cytoskeleton Cytoplasm Cell Wall A microtubule is a helix of ɑ-tubulin and β-tubulin subunits. 29  The Cytoskeletal Elements Intermediate Microtubules Microfilaments Filaments Plasma Membrane It radiate from the centrosomes Form spindle fibers that move chromosomes Cytoskeleton Cytoplasm Cell Wall A microtubule is a helix of ɑ-tubulin and β-tubulin subunits. 30  The Cytoskeletal Elements Intermediate Microtubules Microfilaments Filaments Plasma Membrane They consist of long fibers of Cytoskeleton actin protein, making them Cytoplasm the thinnest cytoskeleton.

Cytoskeleton It helps maintain the shape of cells and prevent them from bursting. Cytoplasm Cell Wall 36  Structural Components of the Cell Wall Plasma Membrane Most bacteria have cell wall made up of Cytoskeleton peptidoglycan.

The cell is divided into main regions: ○ The plasma membrane is mostly composed of phospholipids. It serves as the primary barrier of the cell and is semi-permeable in nature. ○ The cytoskeleton is composed of microtubules, microfilaments, and intermediate filaments. The cytoskeletal elements provide support and framework and facilitate motility in cells. 40  Let’s Sum It Up! The cell is divided into main regions: ○ The cytoplasm is a jelly-like structure composed of the semi-fluid cytosol where all organelles and other cellular contents are immersed or suspended. ○ The cell wall is made up of peptidoglycan in bacterial cells and cellulose in plant cells. It gives a rigid structure for the cell and prevents it from bursting. 41 Let’s Sum It Up! The plasma membrane, cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, and cell wall all contribute to the cell’s maintenance and survival. 42 Challenge Yourself A pathogen invaded an organism’s body.
