3. What Is Cell?
ī§ Cell is the smallest entity in which life can
exist.
4.
5. How Cell Was
Discovered?ī§ Cells are microscopic in nature so
their discovery was dependent upon
the invention of microscope.
ī§ Microscope was invented by David
Jensen in 1590 A. D. But 1st
useful
microscope was invented by Galileo (a
great astronomer) in 1610 A.D.
8. ī§ In 1665 A.D. Robert Hooke discovered cell
by his own made microscope in a slice of
cork.

12. Who Discovered The Nucleus?
ī§ In 1831 A.D. Robert Brown discovered the
nucleus in the cells of orchid.
13. Who Discovered Cytoplasm?
ī§ In 1839 A.D. Schwann observed that
nucleus was surrounded by a fluid in cell.
Now named as cytoplasm.
14.
15. Introduction To Cell Theory
ī§ Put forward by Schleiden (a botanist) and
Schwann (a zoologist) in 1839 A.D.
ī§ Cell theory was later corrected by Rudolf
Virchow in 1855 A.D.
17. Points Of Cell
Theory1. Cell is a basic unit of life.
2. All living organisms are made up of
cells.
3. New cells are produced from
preexisting cells.
18. Definition Of Cell
Now cell is defined as âStructural and
functional unit of life made up of
protoplasm containing nucleus
surrounded by cytoplasm and bounded
by cell membrane.

21. What Is Microscope?
ī§ Microscope is an optical instrument through
which we can visualize small objects which
we are unable to see with naked eye.
ī§ In 1590 A.D. David Jansen invented 1st
microscope.
ī§ Later Galileo, Robert Hooke and other
scientists made useful developments in
microscope.
22. Types Of
Microscopeī§ On the basis of source of illumination microscope is
divided into following three types.
1. Light Microscope
Type of microscope in which light is used as a
source of illumination.

30. Isolation Of Cellular Components
Cell fractionation is a technique to isolate various parts of cell to
determine their composition.
In cell fractionation 1st
number of cells are open in an ice cold
environment.
Then cells are placed in homogenizer or motor to break various
parts of cell.
In last cells centrifuged by the spinning action of centrifugation
machine.
Large particles e.g. nucleus, etc are settle on slow while small
particles e.g. ribosome are settled on fast motion.

membrane bounded structures.
Only contain mesosomes which
are infoldings of cell
membrane for the respiration
purpose.
Prokaryotes are unicellular
living organism like
bacteria, etc.

during interphase
Chromosomes
ī§ Chromatin network coils upon itself to
form a thread like structure called
chromosomes.
ī§ Chromosomes are species specific i.e.
every species have an specific number
of chromosomes like 46 in man.
64.
65. What Is Cytoplasm

78. Important Points About Lysosomes
ī§ Lysosomes are formed by Golgi bodies.
ī§ They contain various types of digestive enzymes so
help in intra cellular digestion.
ī§ Lysosomes are found in animal cells.
ī§ They can lead to digestion of their own cell if their
membrane got ruptured so also known as suicidal
sacs.
ī§ The process in which lysosomes digest their own
cell is called autophagy of cell.
79. Lysosomal Storage
Diseasesī§ Lysosomes have alpha â glycosidase enzyme.
ī§ Absence of alpha glucosidase leads to
glycogen storage in lysosomes.
ī§ Due to extra glycogen, lysosomes are
ruptured.
ī§ Ruptured lysosomes releases enzymes which
digest cells.
82. Key Points Of Plastids
Double membrane bounded organelles.
Occur in greatest number in plant cells.

RibosomesNamed because contain high concentration of
RNA.
One of the most vital cell organelles.
Ribosome are chief site for protein synthesis
so also known as protein factories of cell.
Manufactured in nucleolus.
Found free as well as attached to surface of
rough endoplasmic reticulum.
94. Contain about 50 types of different proteins.
There is millions of ribosome present per cell.
Each ribosome consist of two unequal parts (i.e.
large dome shaped part and small cap like part
which is attached on surface of dome shaped
part).
96. Key Facts About Centrosomes
Cell organelles found in animal cell and lower
plant cells.
Absent in higher plant cells.
Each Centrosome consists of two cylinders like
portions called centrioles.
Each centriole consists of nine parallel triplets
of cylindrical microtubules.
Centrioles replicate during cell division and form
mitotic apparatus and helps in cell division.
98. Key facts About Vacuole
ī§ Vacuoles are non protoplasmic liquid filled cavities in
cytoplasm.
Surrounded by a membrane called tonoplast.
Tonoplast is not a true membrane and selectively
permeable in nature.
Plant cells contain a large vacuole which contain cell
sap and act as store house of cell.
99. In plant cells vacuoles also contributed in
defence of plant cell.
After death of plant cell enzymes of vacuoles
released and cause lysis of plant cell.
In animal cells vacuoles are formed at time of
their need.
Vacuoles of animal cells are rich in
hydrolytic enzymes and participated in
digesting foreign material.
