Chapter 1:Introduction to Cells
What are Cells?
• All living things are composed of cells.
• Cells Are
•The basic units of structure and function in living things
•Click for a overview of cells
Cells and Structure
Structure: What an object is made of and how it is put together?
Lets Describe the Structure of the Object Below.
The structure of the house depends on the shape and function of the bricks. This is similar to cells.
Cells and Function
• Organisms Functions are the processes that enable the organism to live grow and develop.
• Functions1.Obtaining Oxygen, Food, Water
2.Removing waste
• Your bodies cells work together to keep you alive.
• Think about a small cell in you heart how does that cardiac cell work to keep you alive?
• What kinds of needs would your cardiac cell have?
Needs of CellsA single cell has the same needs as an entire organism. What is the name of a material that moves?

Microscopes
• Microscopes are instruments used to make small things appear bigger.
1665 Robert Hooke •Used his microscope to look at a slice of cork (tree bark)•He was the first to observe cells •Named cells “small rooms”
1674 Leeuwenhoek •Observed single celled organism •First to see living cells through a microscope•Named them animalcules “little animals”•Click for More
More Discoveries
1838, Matthias Schleiden
Combined his research with others and concluded all plants are made of cells
1839, Theodor Schwann
Concluded the same thing about animals.
1855, Rudolf Virchow
wrote “All cells are formed from cells”
What is the Cell Theory?
• The Cell theory is a widely accepted explanation of the relationship between cells and living things.
The Cell Theory States the following
1.All living things are composed of cells.
2.Cell are the basic unit of structure and function in living things.
3.All living things are produced from other cells.
How Do Microscopes Work?
• Some microscopes focus light through lenses to produce a magnified image, and others use beams of electrons.
Two main Types• Compound Light Microscope is an instrument that uses two or
more lenses to magnify small organisms.
• Electron Microscopes produce clearer and more detailed images than light microscope, they cannot be used to observe living things. focuses a beam of electrons to magnify objects.

•Light microscope are similar to magnifying glasses.
•They both use convex lenses to bend light causing objects to appear larger or magnify them.
•Magnification is the appearance of things becoming larger.

What is the cell theory? Do viruses follow the cell theory? Explain.
A Compound MicroscopeHas two main lenses•This microscope has a 10x lens in the eyepiece. •The revolving nosepiece holds three different lenses: 4x, 10x, and 40x.

Measuring ObjectsUse a metric ruler to measure the size of the circular field and compare it to object.

Resolution- The degree to which two separate structures that are close together can be distinguished.•Resolution improves with magnification
