    Cell Structure & Function

    Uploaded by

    Wathiq Khalid Ibrahim
    This document provides an overview of cell structure and function. It discusses the cell theory that all living things are made up of cells, which are the basic functional units that come from preexisting cells. Cells can be either prokaryotic, lacking a nucleus, or eukaryotic, containing a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Examples are given of different cell types, including plant, animal, bacteria and red blood cells. A typical animal cell is depicted with labeled organelles.

    Cell Theory
    • All living things are made up of cells.
    • Cells are the smallest working units of all living
    things.
    • All cells come from preexisting cells through
    cell division.
    Rudolph Virchow 1821 - 1902
    Definition of Cell

    A cell is the smallest unit that is


    .capable of performing life functions
    Examples of Cells
    Amoeba Proteus

    Plant Stem

    Bacteria

    Red Blood Cell

    Nerve Cell
    Organization of the Body

    Two Types of Cells

    •Prokaryotic
    •Eukaryotic
    Prokaryotes

    • Lack a nucleus
    • Have a single chromosome
    • Reproduce by binary fission
    • Include bacteria
    Prokaryotic

    Eukaryotes

    • Contain a nucleus & membrane bound


    organelles
    • Multiply cells by mitosis
    Eukaryotic
    • Contain organelles surrounded by membranes
    • Most living organisms
