Field of view

More detail = smaller field of view


Less detail = bigger field of view

Osmosis

- H2O travelling across cell membrane


- Passive transport


- High to low concentration


- No extra energy needed



3 types:



Isotonic - H2O moves in and out of cell equally


Hypotonic - H2O enters cell


Hypertonic - H2O leaves cell

Cell membrane transportation

Total magnification

Power of the objective (low medium high) × power of eyepiece (10)

Plant and animal cells labeled

Refer to Pinterest and diagram sheet

Abiogenisis vs biogenisis

Abiogenisis: non living things create living things


Biogenisis: living things create living things

Cell theory

All organisms are made of cells


Cells are a basic unit of life


New cells come from pre-existing cells

Cytoplasm function

A jelly like substance that supports the organelles inside


The "backround"

Nucleus function

Controls cell activity


"The nucleus takes over controlling everything"

Chromosomes function

DNA

Endoplasmic reticulum function

A system of channels from the nucleus


Rough ER: ribosomes attached (small circles/dots)


Smooth ER: no ribosomes

Golgi Apparatus function

Packages things that are made in the cell to be transported to another organelle or outside of the cell


(Ex. Enzymes, proteins, hormones)

Lysosomes function

Break down food particles and destroy old, worn-out cell parts

Ribosomes function

Makes protein out of amino acids

Mitochondria function

Converts food into energy for the cell


"Powerhouse of the cell"

Chloroplasts function

ONLY FOUND IN PLANT CELLS


absorb sunlight and convert into glucose (photosynthesis)

Central vacuole function

ONLY FOUND IN PLANT CELLS


Stores water and other materials


(If your plant droops down it means the central vacuole is empty or very little filled and you should water your plant!)

Cell wall function

ONLY FOUND IN PLANT CELLS


Protects cell

Centriole function

ONLY FOUND IN ANIMAL CELLS


cell division

Scanning electron microscope (SEM)

3 dimensional


Surface image, not detailed

Transmission electron microscope (TEM)

3 dimensional


Very detailed, but small field of view

Confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM)

3 dimensional and very detailed, large field of view

Cell membrane

E

E

SA/V ratio and diffusion

As the cell gets larger the volume increases faster than the surface area



Since the surface area is the location where materials enter and leave the cell, when the volume increases faster than the surface area, the cell's metabolic needs cannot be met



As the cell gets smaller, the SA/V ratio increases



If oxygen were diffusing into the cell, the smallest cell would receive the greatest oxygen to all parts



In order for the diffusion needs to be met properly, the cell divides instead of getting bigger and bigger

Organism organization

Organelle


Cell


Tissue


Organ


System



(OCTOS)

Multicellular organisms

As organisms grow larger, they must become multicellular



Different cells become specialized to perform specific tasks

Main job of the leaf

To capture the Sun's energy to produce food for the plant



Takes in: sunlight, carbon dioxide, water



Gives out: oxygen, glucose

Photosynthesis equation

Not balanced: CO2+H2O>C6H12O6+O2



Balanced:


6CO2+6H2O>C6H12O6+6O2



"6 in front of everything except for the long part"

Stomata function


Specialization of leaf cells

Let's gases in and out of leaf

Why is the stomata on the underside/bottom of the leaf?

So they don't dry out from sunlight

Guard cells function


Specialization of leaf cells

Opens and closes to allow/not allow water and gases to pass/not pass into the stomata

Spongy mesophyll function


Specialization of leaf cells

Contains chloroplasts to carry out photosynthesis


Loosely packed

Phloem


Specialization of leaf cells

Transports sugar from leaves to rest of plant

Xylem


Specialization of leaf cells

Transports water and minerals from roots to leaves

Vascular bundle


Specialization of leaf cells

Transport highways throughout the leaf


"Viens"

Palisade cells


Specialization of leaf cells

Main cells for photosynthesis


LOTS of chloroplasts


Tightly packed

Epidermis


Specialization of leaf cells

Transparent layer to allow light to pass through to the underlying layer

Cuticle


Specialization of leaf cells

Waxy coating


Protects leaf from water loss

Root hairs

Increase surface area for osmosis

Root pressure

Soil outside root is hypotonic to root cell so water enters cell by osmosis

COhesion of water molecules

Water sticks to other water molecules in the middle

ADhesion of water molecules

Water sticks to inside walls of xylem

Transpiration of water out of leaves

The water concentration is higher inside the leaf cells than in the air



Water moves from an area of high concentration (hypotonic inside the cells) to an area of lower concentration (hypertonic outside the cells)

Phloem transport

1. Sugar is produced in the leafs


2. Sugars are actively transported from the leaves to the phloem tissue


3. Once the sugars are pumped into the phloem tissue, the water follows due to osmosis


4. The sugar/water moves from high to low pressure (down to the roots)

Semi - permeable membrane

Only certain particles can move in and out of the cell

Reverse osmosis

Contaminated water is forced through the semi - permeable membrane



allows water molecules through, but traps bacteria

Medication enclosed in liposomes

Keeps body safe from irritating/bad tasting medications when taking an oral medication

Lenticels

Lens shaped openings in the stem and roots of plants which allows gas flow

Tropism

Plant growth due to stimulus


3 types

Gravitropism

Plant growth due to gravity



Positive gravitropism: towards/with gravity (ex. Roots growing down)



Negative gravitropism: away/not with gravity (ex. Stems growing up)

Phototropism

Plant growth due to the the light direction


Plants will automatically grow towards the light


Good for photosynthesis

Thigmotropism

Plant growth due to touch/contact


(Ex. Vines on wall)
