1.
2. Today’s objective:
Describe how unifying themes (e.g.,
structure and function, evolution, and
ecosystems) in the study of life show
the connections among living things
and how they interact with each other
and with their environment
3. All living things share some basic properties.
Cellular Organization
Reproduction
Metabolism (Obtain and Use Energy)
Homeostasis
Heredity
Responsiveness
Growth and Development
Adapt Through Evolution
12. Anabolism
The process of building up complex substances
from simpler substances
Building up cells and cellular components
Photosynthesis
13. Catabolism
The process of breaking down complex
substances into simpler substances to release
energy
Digestion
Cellular Respiration
14. Metabolism
The total of all chemical reactions in an
organism
Anabolism + Catabolism = Metabolism
15.
16. A stable state of conditions in the body that
are necessary for life
Body temperature
Blood volume
pH balance
Water balance
17.
18. Genes carry hereditary information
Genes are composed of DNA
Heredity is the reason children resemble their parents
Mutations change
DNA code and can be
passed from
generation to
generation
19.
20. Organisms react to stimuli:
Light
Temperature
Odor
Sound
Gravity
Heat
Water
Pressure
An example is a plant’s
leaves and stems growing
toward light
24. Development involves a change in the
physical form or physiological make-up of
an organism
25.
26. Adaptation
A process that enables
organisms to become better
suited to their environment
Species obtain adaptations
through evolution over great
periods of time
27. An Example of Adaptation
Desert plants have succulent waxy leaves and
stems to store water and reduce water loss
29. Objectives
• explain how cells carry out functions required for life
(Parts and function of the cell: mitochondria,
transcription and translation)
• explain how photosynthetic organisms use light energy
to combine carbon dioxide and water to form energy-
rich compounds (Chloroplasts & photosynthesis)
• trace the energy flow from the environment to the cells
(Food chain and energy pyramid)
• describe how organisms obtain and utilize energy
(metabolism)
• recognize that organisms require energy to carry out
functions required for life (processes in the body)
32. 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.
33. Definition of Cell
A cell is the smallest unit that is
capable of performing life functions.
36. Prokaryotic
• Do not have
structures surrounded
by membranes
• Few internal
structures
• One-celled
organisms, Bacteria
http://library.thinkquest.org/C004535/prokaryotic_cells.html
37. Eukaryotic
• Contain organelles surrounded by membranes
• Most living organisms
Plant Animal
http://library.thinkquest.org/C004535/eukaryotic_cells.html
42. Cell Membrane
• Outer membrane of cell
that controls movement in
and out of the cell
• Double layer
http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
43. Cell Wall
• Most commonly found
in plant cells & bacteria
• Supports & protects
cells
http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
45. Nucleus
• Directs cell activities
• Separated from cytoplasm by nuclear
membrane
• Contains genetic material - DNA
46. Nuclear Membrane
• Surrounds nucleus
• Made of two layers
• Openings allow material
to enter and leave
nucleus
http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
47. Chromosomes
• In nucleus
• Made of DNA
• Contain instructions for
traits & characteristics
http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
50. Endoplasmic Reticulum
• Moves materials around in
cell
• Smooth type: lacks
ribosomes
• Rough type (pictured):
ribosomes embedded in
surface
http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
51. Ribosomes
• Each cell contains
thousands
• Make proteins
• Found on ribosomes &
floating throughout the
cell
http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
52. Mitochondria
• Produces energy through
chemical reactions – breaking
down fats & carbohydrates
• Controls level of water and
other materials in cell
• Recycles and decomposes
proteins, fats, and
carbohydrates
http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
53. Golgi Bodies
• Protein 'packaging
plant'
• Move materials within
the cell
• Move materials out of
the cell
http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
54. Lysosome
• Digestive 'plant' for
proteins, fats, and
carbohydrates
• Transports undigested
material to cell membrane
for removal
• Cell breaks down if
lysosome explodes
http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
55. Vacuoles
• Membrane-bound sacs
for storage, digestion,
and waste removal
• Contains water solution
• Help plants maintain
shape
http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
56. Chloroplast
• Usually found in plant
cells
• Contains green
chlorophyll
• Where photosynthesis
takes place
