1. CELL SCIENCE

2. WHAT IS A CELL?
The cell is the basic structural,
functional and biological unit of
all known living organisms. It is
the smallest unit of life that is
classified as a living thing and is
often called as “ building block
of life”

3. ROBERT HOOKE
He is the
first person
who
identified
the cells in
1665

4. SIZE OF THE CELLS
The smallest cell is 0.1 to 0.5 micrometer in
bacteria.
The largest cell measuring 170mm x 130mm, is he
ostrich egg.

5. THE CELL THEORY
The cell theory states that:
All the living things are composed of cells
Cells are the basic units of structure and
function in living things
New cells are produced from existing cells

6. SHAPE OF CELLS
Smooth muscle cell
Ovum
Epithelial cells
Nerve cell
Fat cell
RBCs
Spirogyra
Sperm
Amoeba
Bacteria

7. TYPES OF CELLS
Prokaryotic cells
Eukaryotic cells

8. PROKARYOTIC CELLS
Prokaryotic cells are a group of organisms whose
cells lack a membrane- bound nucleus
BLUE GREEN ALGAE BACTERIA

10. EUKARYOTIC CELLS
Eukaryotic cells has well organized
nucleus with a nuclear membrane.
Ex: All organisms other than blue
green algae and bacteria are
eukaryotic cells
