- 2. The Cell Theory The cell theory (proposed independently in 1838 and 1839) is a cornerstone of biology. All organisms are composed of one or more cells. Cells are the smallest living things. Cells arise only by division of previously existing cells. All organisms living today are descendents of an ancestral cell. Schleiden Schwann
- 3. Cells are Us A person contains about 100 billion cells. That’s 100,000,000,000 or 1 x 1011 cells. There are about 200 different cell types in mammals (one of us). Cells are tiny, measuring on average about 0.002 cm (20 um) across. That’s about 1250 cells, “shoulder-to-shoulder” per inch. nerve cell Red and white blood cells above vessel-forming cells.

- 18. 18 The Cytoskeleton: Microtubules • Hollow cylinders made of two globular proteins called a and b tubulin • Spontaneous pairing of a and b tubulin molecules form structures called dimers • Dimers then arrange themselves into tubular spirals of 13 dimers around • Assembly: – Under control of Microtubule Organizing Center (MTOC) – Most important MTOC is centrosome • Interacts with proteins kinesin and dynein to cause movement of organelles
- 19. 19 The Cytoskeleton:Microtubule Operation

- 21.
- 22. 22 Microtubular arrays: Cilia and Flagella • Hair-like projections from cell surface that aid in cell movement • Very different from prokaryote flagella – Outer covering of plasma membrane – Inside this is a cylinder of 18 microtubules arranged in 9 pairs – In center are two single microtubules – This 9 + 2 pattern used by all cilia & flagella • In eukaryotes, cilia are much shorter than flagella – Cilia move in coordinated waves like oars – Flagella move like a propeller or cork screw
- 23.
- 24. 24 Cytoplasm •Cytosol = water • Organelles = solids Cytoplasm is really like a Jello fruit salad where the Jello is the cytosol and the fruits (oranges, grapes, bananas, maybe walnuts, etc.) are the organelles.

Mitochondrion • Acellular organelle probably of endosymbiotic origin that resides in the cytosol of most nucleated (eurkaryotic) cells. • This organelle produces energy by oxidising organic acids and fats with oxygen by the process of oxidative phosphorylation and generates oxygen radicals (reactive oxygen species ROS )as a toxic by-product
