Robert Hooke
1663 British
Named the cell "cell"
Wrote the book micrographia
Looked at Cork cells (wood)
Francesco Redi
1668- Italian
Disproved Spontanious Generation- proved that living things dont come from non living things (ex. maggots dont come from old meat)
Anton Von Leawenhoek
1673- Dutch
Father of Microscopes-made hundreds of microscopes with 200X
Father of microbiology- firt to find living objects in what seemed to be "non living" objects (found protists in rainwater, bacteria on teeth)
Robert Brown
1831- Scottish
discovered brownian motion- the random movement of particles/atoms (like electrons)
Discovered the nucleus of a cell
Schleiden and Schwann
1839- German
Schleiden- proved that all plants were made of cells
Schwann- proved that all animals were made of cells
DISCOVERED THAT ALL LIVING THINGS ARE MADE OF CELLS

schwann studied schwann cells (cells of the nervous system)
Rudy Virchow
1858- German
first to study leukemia and cancer
Created Cellulos Omunous Cellulos (all cells come from other cells)
Vonkolliker
1861- Switzerland
looked at muscle and nerve cells
discovered the mitochondria
improved the cell staining technique
Camille Golgi
1898- Italian
discovered the golgi apparatus
Robert Koch
1882- German

proposed the postulate that bacteria and viruses could cause infectous diseases
nobel prize for his work on taburculosus
Ernst Ruska
1931- German

invented the electron microscope
Watson and Crick
1953- American and British

Studied and photographed DNA

got the nobel prize for their DNA work

actually they werent the first to photograph DNA they just got the credit
Mitochondria
Found in both plant and animal cells

creates energy for the cell (glucose is too big a form of energy) so the mitochondria breaks down glucose into more usuable forms of energy called ATP

site of cellular respiration

double membrane

inner membrane is site of aerobic respiration

inner membrane is ruffled called the cristae

mitochondria have their own DNA and make their own proteins
centrioles
assit in cell division
only found in animal cells
they are made of protein fibers
Smooth and Rough ER
series of double membranes that loop back and forward between the cell membrane and the nucleus

fill up the cytoplasm

rough ER has ribosomes attatched to it (where proteins are made)

smooth ER has no ribosomes attatched to it

acts as a way of transporting proteins
Lysosomes
single membrane and a digestive enzyme (protein) inside

lysosomes dissolve bacteria and old organelles (called suicide sacks)
Golgi Body
Proteins are sent through the cisternae- Packages proteins that are received from the rough ER and sends them off to the cytoplasm (some are made into lysosomes)
Nucleus
Controls all cell activity

Nuclear membrane has pores that allow ribosomes, RNA, and others to pass in and out

Nucleus has chromatin in it

Nucleus houses the nucleolus which is a ball of chromatin

THE NUCLEOLUS MANUFACTURES RIBOSOMES

the chromatin is the DNA
Chloroplasts
where photosynthesis takes place in plant cells

makes glucose for the cell

only in plant cells
Autolysis
when the lysosome breaks open and self distructs in order to dissolve a bacteria etc
what is the difference between the outer and the inner structure of the mitochondria
outer- has a double membrane just protects the mitochondria

innter- called the cristae white ruffled folded structure
where might have mitochondria have originiated from and why
they might have come from bacteria since mitochondria have their own set of DNA and create their own proteins
what does the outer membrane of the nucleus look like
it has pores that allow ribosomes RNA and others to pass in and out of the nucleus
describe the inner contents of the nucleus
chromatin- thick ropy strands that make up the nucleolus that make ribosomes- chromatin is also where the DNA is

nucleolus- condensed ball of chromatin
what are the disk like structures in chloroplasts called
Grana- connected by thylakoid membranes
what is the cell theory
all cells come from other cells
all living things are made from cells
cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things
what are photographs viewed through a microscope called
micrographs
a cell part with a specific job is called a
organelle
what organelle does both plant and animal cells have that covers the cell
plasma membrane
what does the plasma membrane do
regulates chemicals going in and out of the cell
what is the area between the nucleus and the plasma membrane called
cytoplasm
what do plant cells have in addition to the plasma membrane
cell wall
what is the difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells
pro- only bacteria, no nucleus only organelle it has is ribosomes
eukar- has a nucleus enclosed by a membrane and all the other organelles with membranes
what are the four types of eukaryotic cells
animal
plant
fungi
protista
what are the two kinds of prokaryotic cells
eubacteria and archiobacteria
what two structures are found in plant but not animal cells
cell wall and choloroplasts
what two things make up the membrane of a cell
proteins and phospholipids
phospholipid bilayer
two layers of phospholipids that are sandwiched together that make up the membrane
what kind of molecules cross the membrane easily
small nonpolar molecules like oxygen
what kind of molecules do not pass through the membrane easily
large polar molecules like sugars
what role do proteins play in the phospholipid bilayer
enzymes- carry out chemical reactions
also proteins help cells communicate and recognize each other
transport proteins- moves certain substances across the membrane
diffusion
movement of the molecules of a substance from where they are more concentrated to where they are less concentrated
equilibrium
when the concentration of the molecules of the substance is the same throughout and the system is balanced
selectively permeable membranes
these membranes only let some substances pass through but block out other substances

cellular membranes are selectively permeable
facilitated diffusion
transport proteins make a path for certain molecules (like water and sugars) to pass through the membrane
what are the three kinds of passive transport and what is passive transport
facilitated diffusion diffusion and osmosis

passive transport- when the cell doesn't use any energy to move substances through the membrane
osmosis
the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane
hypertonic
when there is a high concentration of solute and a lower concentration of water
hypotonic
when there is a lower concentration of solute and a higher concentration of water
in what direction does osmosis happen
water will move from the hypotonic side of the membrane to the hypertonic side of the membrane
when the concentrations of water and solute are the same on both sides of the membrane the solution is said to be
isotonic
active transport
when energy is needed to move molecules through a membrane
what do vesicles do
membrane sacs that move bigger molecules in and out of the cell membrane
exocytosis
when a vesicle moves a molecule OUT of the cell
endocytosis
when a vesicle moves a molecule INTO the cell
what surrounds the nucleus
nuclear envelope (it is a pair of membranes)
what does the nucleolus make
ribosomes
what do ribosomes do
they make proteins
ribosomes in the cytoplasm make proteins that ______
ribosomes attached to the rough ER make proteins that______
1) stay inside the cell for the cell to use
2) are sent outside of the cell for the body to use
what does the smooth ER do
builds lipid molecules and produces hormones
vacuoles
membrane bound sacs that are storage places for undigested nutrients, color pigments, or self defense poisons

ATP
where is ATP made in the mitochondria
in the ruffled folds of the inner membrane
ATP is a ___
nucleotide
cytoskeleton
network of fibers that supports organelles and maintains the shape of the cell
what are the two kinds of fibers that make up the cytoskeleton
microtubules- tubes of proteins that make a cell rigid and give it shape and organization-also allows organelles to move
microfilaments- enables a cell to change shape or move
what are the two things that allow a cell to move
flagella- one big tail that lets the cell move in a whipping motion
cilia- multiple short little tails that project from all around the cell
