14. Discovery of Cells
The invention of the
lens
Robert Hooke(1665):
observed a thin slice of
cork (dead plant cells)
with a microscope.
He described what he
observed as “little
boxes” (cells).
15. Discovery of Cells
Anton van Leeuwenhoek (1675): was the
first person to observe living cells.
16. Microscopes
Magnification: refers to
the microscope’s
power to increase an
object’s apparent size
Resolution: refers to
the microscope’s
power to show
detail clearly
17. The Cell Theory
Who developed the cell theory?
– Matthias Schleiden (1838):
concluded that all plants are
composed of cells
– Theodor Schwann (1839): concluded
that all animals are composed of
cells
– Rudolph Virchow (1855):
determined that cells come only
from other cells
18. The Cell Theory
What is the cell theory?
1. All living things are composed
of one or more cells.
2. Cells are organisms’ basic
units of structure and
function.
3. Cells come only from existing
cells.
21. Cell Diversity (SHAPE)
Cells differ widely in shape
Most cells are roughly
cuboidal or spherical.
22. Cell Diversity (INTERNAL ORGANIZATION)
Nucleus: contains DNA which directs the
activity of the cell
Organelle: a cell component that performs
specific functions in the cell
Eukaryotes: cells that contain a nucleus
and membrane-bound organelles
Prokaryotes: cells that lack nuclei and
membrane-bound organelles
26. The Parts of the Cell
Each living cell carries out the tasks of
taking food, transforming food into
energy, getting rid of wastes, and
reproducing.
Most eukaryotic cells have
three main components:
– Cell Membrane
– Cytoskeleton
– Nucleus
27. Structure & Function of Organelles
The Structure and Function of the
following organelles will be discussed:
– Cell Membrane – Mitochondria
– Nucleus – Lysosomes
– Cell Wall – Peroxisomes
– Cytoplasm – Cilia and Flagella
– Cytoskeleton – Basal Bodies
– Ribosomes – Centrioles
– Endoplasmic Reticulum – Vacuoles
– Golgi Apparatus – Plastids
28. Cell Membrane
Structure: phospholipid
bilayer with proteins that
function as channels,
markers, and receptors
-also contains cholesterol
which provides rigidity
Function: selectively
permeable boundary
between the cell and
the external environment
29. Nucleus
Structure: the nucleus
is a sphere that
contains another
sphere called a
nucleolus
Function: -storage
center of cell’s DNA
-manages cell
functions
30. Cell Wall
Structure: rigid wall
made up of cellulose,
proteins, and
carbohydrates

outside of the cell
membrane that
provides structure
and support
32. Endoplasmic Reticulum
Structure: a system of membranous tubules
and sacs

which molecules move from one part of the cell
to another)
Two types:
– Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
– Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
35. Golgi Apparatus

flat sacs
Function: receives
proteins from the rER
and distributes them to
other organelles or out
of the cell
(receiving,
processing,
packaging, and
shipping)
36. Mitochondria

Day 4 PPT on human body systems
45. What is Tissue ?
• Tissue is a cellular organizational level
intermediate between cells and a complete
organism. Hence, a tissue is an ensemble of cells,
not necessarily identical, but from the same
origin, that together carry out a specific function.
• The study of tissue is known as histology
or, in connection with disease,
histopathology.
46. The Importance of Tissue
• Formation of tissues has brought about a division of labour
in multicellular organisms
• Tissues become organised to form organs and
organs into organ systems
• As a result of improved organisation and higher efficiency
multicellular organisms have higher survival
• Plants are autotrophic organisms, so prepare their own
food by photosynthesis, they are stationary and do not
move from place to place, hence they do not need
much energy. Most of the tissues in plants are dead
and provide structural strength.
47. Importance Cont ……..
• Animals on the other hand are heterotrophic organisms,
they move in search of food and hence need more energy
compared to plants, most of the tissues they have are living.
• Hence the plants and animals are made of different types of
tissues.
• There are some tissues in plants which divide through out
their life, they divide for the growth and reproduction of the
plant
• Such ever dividing tissues are localized in certain regions of
the plant body, thus based on the dividing capacity of the
tissues they are classified into two
49. Types of Tissues
ANIMALTISSUE
Animal tissues can be grouped into four basic
types: connective, muscle, nervous, and epithelial.
PLANT TISSUE
Plant tissues are categorized broadly into three tissue systems
the epidermis, theground tissue, and the vascular tissue.
50. Plant tissues
Meristematic tissue: rapid cell division,
lengthening of shoots and roots
Dermal tissue: covering for the
plant body
Ground tissue: support,
photosynthesis, and storage
Vascular tissue: conduction of
water, food, and dissolved
minerals; strengthens and
supports
the plant
52. Meristematic Tissue
cells that do not
differentiate
cells retain the ability
to divide
Types:
– Apical – primary growth
at root and shoot tips
– Lateral – secondary
growth in trees and
shrubs
– Intercalary – secondary
growth in monocot
stems
53. Dermal Tissue
Single layer of cells called
the epidermis in
herbaceous plants
– guard cells
– trichomes
– root hairs
Functions
– absorption
– secretion of cuticle
– protection
– control of gas exchange

56. All 4 types of tissues
are present in the root tip
57. Animal Tissues
• Multicellular (large) organisms function more
efficiently if cells become specialized for specific
functions.
• There are four types of tissues found in
animals: epithelial, connective, nerve,
and muscle tissue.
• Sponges do not have tissues.
60. Epithelial tissues
Epithelial tissue covers the whole surface of the
body. It is made up of cells that are closely packed
and are composed of one or more layers. This
tissue is specialized to form the covering or lining
of all internal and external body surfaces.
Epithelial tissue that occurs on surfaces on the
interior of the body is known as endothelium.
Made up of continuous sheets of densely
packed cells, with little space or intercellular
material between them.
61. cont . . . . .
A basement membrane is usually present.
Functions:
Forms the covering or lining of all free body surfaces,
both internal and external to protect cells from
mechanical injury and water loss.
Some has special functions of absorption,
secretion, excretion, sensation and respiration.
62. Connective tissues
The connective tissue is specialized to connect and
anchor various body organs
It connects the bones to each other, bind the tissues and give
support to various parts of the body by creating a packing
around the organs,
Thus the main function of the tissue are binding,
supporting and packing
The cells of the tissue are living and are separated from each
other
A homogenous gel like intercellular substance called the
medium or matrix forms the bulk of the connective tissue
63. Cont ……..
The space between the cells are filled with a non living matrix
which may be solid as in bone and cartilage and fluid as in
blood
Thus blood is a type of connective tissue
Blood has a fluid matrix called the plasma, in which the
RBC, WBC and platelets are suspended
The plasma contains proteins, salts and hormones
The bone is another example of a connective tissue
It is a strong and nonflexible tissue, embedded in a hard
matrix composed of calcium and phosphorus
compounds
64. Cont ……..
Two bones are connected to each other by another type of
connective tissue called ligament
Tissue is very elastic and has strength and contains very little
matrix
The muscles are connected to the bones by another type of
connective tissue called tendons
Tendons are fibrous with great strength and limited flexibility
Cartilage is another type of connective tissue, which has
widely spaced cells
The cartilage is seen at the surface of the joints, nose,
ear, trachea and larynx
65. Muscular Tissues
The muscular tissue are made of muscle cells and these cells are
elongated and large sized , so they are also called the muscle fibres
The movement of the body or limbs are brought about by the
contraction and relaxation of the contractile protein present in the
muscle cells.
Most of the muscular tissue is attached to the bones and hence are
called the skeletal muscles
The movement of the muscles can be controlled as well as
uncontrolled
The type of muscles in which the movement is under our control are
called the voluntary muscles
And the type of muscles where the movement cannot be
controlled are called the involuntary muscles
67. Types of Muscular Tissues
The muscular tissue can be divided into 3
1. Striated muscles
2. Smooth muscles
3. Cardiac muscles
STRIATED MUSCLES
The muscles are also known as skeletal muscles or voluntary muscles
The type of muscles show light and dark bands or striations when
stained, hence they are also known as striated muscles
The cells of this tissue are long, cylindrical, unbranched and
multinucleate.
They are attached to the bones and help in body movements
Each muscle cell is enclosed in a distinct plasma membrane
called the sarcolemma
68. Types of Muscular Tissues
SMOOTH MUSCLES
These are also known as the unstriated or the involuntary
muscles
They occur as bundles which are spindle shaped and have
a single nucleus
The movement of these muscles cannot be controlled
The tissue are often seen in the walls of the alimentary
canal, visceral organs except the heart
69. Types of Muscular Tissues
CARDIAC MUSCLES
They show the characteristics of both the striated and
smooth muscles
The cells of this muscles are branched cylindrical and un
inucleated , the intercellular spaces are filled with the
connective tissue
They have dark and light bands on them
The muscles around the heart show rhythmic contraction
and relaxation throughout the life , and hence these
involuntary muscles are also known as the cardiac muscles
70. Nervous Tissues
It is a tissue which is specialized to transmit messages within th
body
Brain, spinal cord and nerves are all composed of nervous tissu
The cells of this tissue are called nerve cells or neurons
The neurons have the ability to receive stimuli within or outside
the body and to conduct impulses (signals) to different parts of
the body
The impulse travels from one neuron to another
Many nerve fibres bound together make up a nerve
The neurons have the three main parts
71. Types of Nervous Tissues
1. Motor Neurons/Efferent
Accept nerve impulses from the CNS
Transmit them to muscles or glands
2. Sensory Neurons/Afferent
Accept impulses from sensory receptors
Transmit them to the CNS
3. Interneurons/Association
Convey nerve impulses between various parts of the CNS
73. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
ANIMAL AND PLANT TISSUES
ANIMAL TISSUE PLANT TISSUE
Since animals are mobile so they
require more energy, hence
more living tissues are required.
Since plants are stationary so they
do not require much energy, Hence
more living tissues are not required.
Animals move from one place to
another in search of food, shelter
etc., hence they need more energy
and there more tissues are living.
In plants, most tissues provide
structural strength. Most of these
tissues are dead 9can provide
mechanical strength as easily as the
living ones and need less
maintenance.Cell growth is uniformally
distributed
Growth is limited to certain
regions
Structural organisation of organs
and organ systems is more
specialised and complex.
Structural organisation of
organs is comparatively less
complex.
