Subject Description
• Biology I is a Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics
(STEM) Specialized Subject taken in the first half of Grade 11.
• Learners go on a journey geared toward the deeper understanding
and appreciation of life processes at the cellular and molecular
levels previously introduced in Grades 7-10. They will also apply
basic chemistry and physics principles as they examine the
transformation of energy in organisms.
Let’s Revisit BIOLOGY as a subject
• Reflect upon your past experiences during your junior high school
years when you were exposed to lessons focused on biology.
• On a 1 whole yellow paper, compile a comprehensive list of the
biology topics that you can still recall from your junior high school
education.
CELL: THEORY, STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
MELC’s
1. Explain the postulates of the cell theory. (STEM_BIO11/12-Ia-c-1)
2. Describe the structure and function of major and subcellular
organelles. (STEM_BIO11/12-Ia-c-2)
What are CELLS?
• Cells are the basic building blocks
of all living things.
• The human body is composed of
trillions of cells. They provide
structure for the body, take in
nutrients from food, convert those
nutrients into energy, and carry
out specialized functions.
• Cells also contain the body’s
hereditary material and can make
copies of themselves.
The CELL Theory
• How/in what way can we observe
cells?
Advanced Compound Microscope
Magnification of up to 1000x
The CELL Theory
• Who invented the first microscope?
Zacharias Janssen – 1600
-Dutch spectacle maker
The Scientists behind the CELL Theory
• Robert Hooke
• Antonie van Leeuwenhoek
• Robert Brown
• Matthias Schleiden
• Theodor Schwann
• Rudolph Virchow
Robert Hooke
• Advancements in the microscope
were crucial for the discovery of
cells.
• Robert Hooke improved the
compound microscope in 1665.
• Hooke's microscope had three
lenses and a stage light for
illumination and magnification. Robert Hooke
Robert Hooke
• Hooke observed something
fascinating when he examined
cork under the microscope.
• Hooke documented his
observations in his book,
Micrographia.
• He referred to the structures in
cork as "cells" due to their
resemblance to monastery cells.
Robert Hooke’s Microscope
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek
• In 1674 Dutch scientist Antonie
van Leeuwenhoek published his
observations on tiny living
organisms which he named
animalcules.
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek
• It was believed that
Leeuwenhoek was the
first to observe under his
microscope the structure
of an Erythrocyte of
different animals as well
as a sperm cell.
Robert Brown
• One of the leading botanists in
his time, Robert Brown in 1831
was able to compare diverse
kinds of plant specimens under
the microscope.
• He markedly indicated that there
is a common thing about them-
they are all composed of cells, and
inside the cell is a dark dense spot
which he termed as the nucleus.
Matthias Schleiden
• He is a German botanist who in
1838 concluded that all plant
parts are made of cells.
Theodor Schwann
• He is a physiologist and
histologist and a close
friend of Schleiden.
• In 1839, he stated that all
animal tissues are
composed of cells, too.
Rudolf Virchow
• In 1855, the third tenet of
Schwann were replaced by the
Rudolph Virchow’s powerful
dictum, Omnis cellula e cellula,
“All cells only arise from pre-
existing cells”.
The CELL Theory
• The discoveries made by Hooke, Leeuwenhoek, Schleiden,
Schwann, Virchow, and others led to the formulation of the cell
theory.
• This theory can be summed up into three basic components:
(1) all living things are composed of one or more cells;
(2) the cell is the basic unit of life; and
(3) all cells arise from preexisting cells.
The CELL Structures and Functions
• The cells are the building blocks of life just as atoms are the
basic building blocks of all matter.
• Each cell contains materials that carry out basic life processes.
• Cell structures can only be observed under high magnification
electron microscope.
The CELL Structures and Functions
The CELL Structures and Functions
• A cell consists of three parts:
• the cell membrane,
• the nucleus, and, between the two,
• the cytoplasm.
• Within the cytoplasm lie intricate arrangements of fine fibers
and hundreds or even thousands of miniscule but distinct
structures called organelles.
The CELL Structures and Functions
These organelles perform a
variety of functions like:
• production of proteins,
• storage of important materials,
• harvesting energy,
• repairing cell parts,
• digestion of substances, and
• maintaining the shape and
structure of the cell.
The CELL Structures and Functions
The structures and functions of the cell organelles are categorized
into four:
• Manufacturing
(Nucleus, Ribosome, Rough and Smooth ER, Golgi
apparatus)
• Breakdown (Lysosomes, Vacuoles, Peroxisomes)
• Energy Processing (Mitochondria, Chloroplasts)
• Structural Support, Movement, and Communication
(Cytoplasm, Cytoskeleton, Centrioles, Cell Membrane, Cell
Wall, Chromatin)
The CELL Structures and Functions
The CELL Structures and Functions
Nucleus
Function:
• DNA synthesis
(Replication);
• RNA synthesis
(Transcription);
• Assembly of ribosomes
(Ribosome Biogenesis)
Ribosome
Function:
• Protein synthesis
• This process involves
decoding the sequence of
nucleotides in mRNA and
assembling the
corresponding amino acids
in the correct order to form
a polypeptide chain, which
ultimately folds into a
functional protein.
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER)
Surrounded by ribosomes
Function:
• synthesis of membrane
lipids and proteins,
secretory proteins, and
hydrolytic enzymes;
• formation of transport
vesicles
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER)
Surrounded by ribosomes
Function:
• Lipid synthesis;
detoxification in liver cells
Golgi Apparatus
Function:
• Modification and transport
of macromolecules;
• Formation of lysosomes
and transport vesicles
Lysosomes
Function:
• Digestion of ingested food,
bacteria, and a cell’s
damaged organelles and
macromolecules for
recycling
Vacuole
Function:
• Digestion;
• storage of chemicals;
• cell enlargement;
• water balance
Peroxisomes
Function:
• Diverse metabolic
processes, with breakdown
of H2O2 by – product
Mitochondria
Function:
• Conversion of chemical
energy of food to chemical
energy of ATP
Chloroplasts (for Autotrophs)
Function:
• Conversion of light energy
to chemical energy of
sugars.
Cytoplasm
Jelly – like substance that
holds the cell organelles in
place;
Function:
• site of many chemical
reactions
Cytoskeleton
Function:
• Structural support;
movement; transportation
Centrioles
Function:
• Helpers in cell division
Cell Wall
Function:
• Nonliving permeable wall
that surrounds the cell
membrane;
• encloses and supports the
cell
Cell Membrane
Function:
• Separates cell from
outside; controls what
enters and leaves the cell;
recognizes signals from
other cells
Chromatin
Function:
• Provides instruction for the
cell's activities, (growth,
reproduction)
