The origins of cell study

Individual cells are so small, they are seen in detail only with a :

microscope.

The first microscopeWas designed by Anton van

Leeuwenhoek in the 1600s.Really, it was a piece of glass. In 1665, Robert Hooke used a

compound microscope to see cork “cells”.

Development of the Cell Theory

Robert Hooke was the first to see and name “cells.”

Two other scientists, Shleiden (studied plants) and Schwann (studied animals),

were the first to write that living things are composed of cells.

Their conclusions contributed to what is now called the Cell Theory.

Development of the Cell Theory

The Cell Theory says:

All living things are made of one or more cells.

The cell is the basic unit of an organism.

All cells come from other living cells.

Characteristics of Cells

Two main types: prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Prokaryotes do NOT have a true nucleus.

Eukaryotes have a true nucleus. There are other differences as well…

Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells

Go to Section:

Eukaryotic Cells Eukaryotic cells have internal membrane-

bound structures called organelles. Organisms that are eukaryotic can be uni- or

multicellular. Unicellular organisms are able to carry out all

of life’s functions. Multicellular organisms can have

specialization of cell groups (tissues). Examples: include fungi, amoeba, plants, and

animals.

Prokaryotic Cells Prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound

organelles. They still have DNA, but no nucleus to

enclose it. Examples include: all bacteria.

All about virusesWhere did viruses come from? Possibly parts of cells

– Genetic material of viruses is similar to that of cells

Viral Structure Covered by an outer layer of proteins called

a capsid Inside the capsid – genetic material –

could be DNA or RNA

Viral Infections Viruses do not have ribosomes or

mechanism for making proteins They cannot function or reproduce on their

own To replicate, viruses must infect host cells

– Two types of viral reproduction Lysogenic Lytic

Lytic Cycle Host cell makes copies of its own DNA

as well as viral DNA or RNA Invading genetic material instructs the

host cell to make more viral protein capsids & enzymes needed for viral replication

With those copies of DNA and protein, new viruses start to form

Host cell lyses or “explodes” and releases thousands of new viruses

Lysogenic Cycle Lysogenic = literally “can initiate a lysis of

the cell” but it doesn’t do it right away Viral DNA inserts into DNA of host cell DNA stays dormant (it hides/rests) for a

length of time Under the right conditions, the viral DNA is

activated and the Lytic Cycle begins Examples—chicken pox-> shingles,

HIV

Fighting Viral Disease Antibiotics are ineffective against viral

infections The only way to fight a virus is with the

immune system by:– Fighting an existing new viral infection– Preventing the severity of viral disease by

vaccination: A vaccine is a killed or weakened virus that is injected into a person so their immune system (1) gets a preview of what the virus looks like(2) Can respond quickly so that the virus will not

totally infect the person and make them ill

Virus Variations & more Retrovirus

– Has RNA instead of DNA– Ex. HIV Virus that causes AIDS

Prions– Proteins that can cause infectious diseasesFor example:– Mad Cow Disease, Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease

How much do you know? What is the difference between a virus and

a retrovirus? What type of virus is HIV? Do prions have genetic material? Are viruses living? Give one reason why or

why not? Are viruses bigger or smaller than normal

cells? Do antibiotics work against viruses?
