 Just as a building is made up of bricks the body of all living organisms made up of cells.

 Basing on the cellular organization some organisms are made of single cells “Unicellular Organisms” e.g. Chlamydomonas, Amoeba, Paramecium

 Organisms which are made up of more than a cell “multicellular”

 Irrespective of unicellular or multicellular organisms the cells perform similar basic functions for their survival.

WHAT ARE LIVING

ORGANISMS MADE UP OF?

(6)

 Cells are too small to be seen by necked eye. They are studied with the help of microscopes.

 Microscopes are high resolution instruments that are used for observing fine details of very small objects

 Two common types of microscopes

• Light microscope-magnification range from 100-1500

• Electron microscope- magnification range from 1 lakh- 5 lakhs

The Scale of Life

(9)
(10)

 Unicellular

 Made of Single Cell

 Single cell able to perform all the life processes like obtaining food, respiration, excretion, growth and reproduction.

 Cannot be divided in to cells, they are also called acellular organisms

Amoeba, paramecium

UNICELLULAR VS . MULTICELLULAR

 Multicellular

 Made up of many number of cells

 Cells have a similar basic structure and similar basic life activities

 Different shapes and aggregated to form different tissues

 Tissues form organs and organs give rise to organ system that perform special function.

 Plants, Animals and Fungi

(11)

 It performs all life function like intake of food materials, excretion, metabolism, respiration, irritability, etc.,

 Division of Labour – Cell usually possesses a number of components called cell organelles.

 Each cell organelle performs different functions

• Clearing waste material

• Protein synthesis

• Lipid synthesis

Cell is basic unit of life

(12)

A cell is a tiny mass of protoplasm which is surrounded by a membrane and is capable of performing all function of life .

 A typical cell is formed of three parts

• Plasma membrane-to create separate environment

• Nucleus-for its control

• Cytoplasm-possessing metabolic machinery

What is Cell made up of ?

(13)

 The outer most delicate elastic membranous covering of the cell that separates its contents from the external environment is called Plasma Membrane

 Plasma Membrane is Selectively Permeable (it allows entry of certain substance restricting others)

 It is made up of a bi-lipid layer and proteins are integrated in out and inside.

 Small carbohydrates are attached at placed to outer surface of lipids and proteins.

 Functions- Shape to contents of cell, Mechanical Barrier, Semi-Permeable, Endocytosis, Recognition Centres, Flow of Information, Osmosis, Cell Continuity, Modified to perform special functions like absorption in microvilli.

SEM-Plasma membrane

(15)

 Membranes act as physical barriers between the organelles of a cell and its cytoplasm and its surrounding environment.

 Impermeable – substances do not pass through the membrane

 Permeable – both solute and solvent can pass through

 Semipermeable – membrane permeable to solvent but prevents solutes passage

 Selectively Permeable – if membrane allows the passage of solvent and some selected solutes.

Transport Across the Membrane

(16)

 Substances may pass across the membrane without or with expenditure of energy-

 Active Transport -

substances pass the membrane with consuming ATP

 Passive Transport-

substances pass the membrane without consuming ATP

 Bulk Transport – Large amounts of substances and food particles across the plasma membrane

 The process of bringing the bulk of materials from outside by formation of endosomes is called endocytosis.

 Bulk expulsion of materials as in secretion and excretion is called exocytosis.

Active & Passive Transport

(17)

Active Transport

(18)

 Passive Transport is of two types

• Diffusion

• Osmosis

 Diffusion – The process of movement of substances (solid, Liquid or Gas)from the region of higher concentration to the region of its lower concentration till spread uniformly in the given space is called diffusion.

Passive Transport

Diffusion – Demonstration

(19)

 Helps in spread of different substances throughout cytoplasm of cell.

 Osmosis is a type of diffusion where only solvent is allowed to diffuse.

 Diffusion helps in exchange of respiratory gases between the cells and their environment.

 Transpiration is diffusion process

 Flowers spread aroma through diffusion to attract insects and other animals for pollination.

Importance of Diffusion

(20)

 Defined as the diffusion of water or solvent across a semipermeable membrane from a region of its higher concentration to region of its lower concentration.

 Plasma membrane functions as semipermeable membrane.

Osmosis

Osmosis Osmosis - demonstration

(21)

 Diffusion

 It can take place in solid, liquid and gases.

 It does not involve any semi permeable membrane.

 It equalizes the concentration of substances.

 Different substances diffuse independent of one another

 Diffusion is not much influenced by the presence of other substances

How Diffusion differs from Osmosis ?

 Osmosis

 It takes place only in liquid medium

 It requires semi-permeable membrane.

 It does not equalize the concentration of solvent on the two sides of the membrane

 Only solvent undergoes diffusion

 It is influenced by the concentration and type of solute particles.

(22)

 Osmotic solutions are those solutions which can cause osmosis

 They are three types

• Hypotonic Solution, Isotonic Solution and Hypertonic Solution

 Hypotonic – which has an osmotic concentration lower than another solution.

 Isotonic – The solution has an osmotic concentration similar to another solution.

 Hypertonic – which has an osmotic concentration higher than that of another solution.

Types of Osmotic Solutions

(23)

 Osmosis is of two types

• Endosmosis

• Exosmosis

 Endosmosis – Osmotic entry of water in to the cell or system

 Exosmosis – Osmotic withdrawal of water from a cell or system

 When we place the cell in higher concentration the water comes out of the cell by a process called exosmosis.

 When we place the cell in lower concentration the water enters in to the cell by a process called endosmosis.

Types of Osmosis

Endosmosis Exosmosis

 Division of nucleus is essential for cell division

 Reshuffling of chromosomes and changes in genes produce variations

Role of Nucleus in a Cell

(35)

 Prokaryotes (singular ) are a group of organisms that lack a cell nucleus or any other membrane-bound organelles. They differ from the eukaryotes, which have a cell nucleus. Prokaryotes are the single-celled organisms, such as bacteria, and are roughly one micrometre in diameter.

 A eukaryote is an organism whose cells contain complex structures inside the membranes. The defining membrane-bound structure that sets eukaryotic cells apart from prokaryotic cells is the nucleus, or nuclear envelope, within which the genetic material is carried

Prokaryotes & Eukaryotes

Bacteria Plant Cell

(36)

 Prokaryotes do not have a nucleus that houses its genetic material.

 Prokaryote cell consists of a large DNA molecule compacted in an area of cytoplasm called the nucleoid region.

 The nucleoid region is protected and encased by the cell wall, or cell membrane, the outer layering of the cell (similar to human's skin). Finally,

 Flagellum a rudder-like device, affords the prokaryote the luxury of mobility.
