The History of Cells & the
Cell Theory
Discovery of Cells.
1665- Englsh Scientist, Robert Hooke, discovered
cells while looking at a’thin sice of cork.
He described the cells as tiny boxes or a honeycomb
He thought that cells only existed in piants and fungi
1673- Used a handmade microscope to observe
pond scum & discovered single-celled organisms
He called them “animalcules” ~
He also observed blood cals from fish, birds,
frogs, dogs, and humans
‘Therefore, it was known that cells are found in
animals as well as plants
150-200 Year Gap???
Between the Hooke/Leuwenhoek discoveries
‘and the mid 19" century, very few cell theory
advancements were made,
‘This is probably due to the widely accepted,
traditional belief in Spontaneous Generation.
Examples:
Mice from dirty dothes/corn husks
“Maggots from rotting meat
Development of Cell Theory
1838. English Botanist, Matthias Schleiden,
‘concluded that all plant parts are made of cells
1838- German physiologist, Theodor Schwann,
who wasa clase friend of Schleiden, stated that
all animal tissues are composed of cells.11/15/2015
Development of Cell Theory
1858- Rudolf Virchow, Russian physician,
after extensive study of cellular pathology,
concluded that cells must arise from
3 Basic Components of
the Cell Theory
1. All organisms are composed of one or more cells.
= (Schleiden & Schwann)(1938-39)
2. The cell is the basic unit of if in all living things.
'=(Schleiden & Schwann)(1838-39)
3. All calls are produced by the division of
preexisting cells.
‘= (Virchow)(1858)
Theory
Aset of statements or principles
devised to explain a group of
facts or phenomena, especially
‘one that has been repeatedly
tested or is widely accepted and
can be used to make predictions
about natural phenomena.
Modern Cell Theory DN
Madern Cell Theory consists ofthe 3 basic components
(of cell theory, plus 4 additional statements:
'= 4. The cell pass information from cell to cell during
cell division using DNA.
1=5. Allces have basically the same chemical
‘composition and metabolic activities.
1=6, Allcells have basically the same chemical &
physiological functions-(movemert, digestion, etc)
Cell activity depends on the actwities of structures

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and
Function
‘Nucleus
‘Nickname: “The Control Center”
‘= Function: holds the DNA
= Paris:

‘nucleus that helps mate ribosomes
‘Nucleus - largest organelle; control center of
the cel; consists of:
‘= Muctoar envelope - couble membrane
structure containing pores
= Nucteoli synthesize ribosomes
= Chromatin - threadlike material composed
‘of DNA (genes) & proteins
Note: during cell division, chromatin
condenses to form chromosomes11/15/2015

Ribosomes
‘= Function: makes proteins
‘= Found in all cells, prokaryctic and
eukaryotic
Ribosomes ~ dense particles of rRNA and protein
‘Free ribosomes — synthesize proteins that
function within the cell
‘= Aitached nbosomes ~ synthesize proteins
incorporated into cell membranes or
exported outside the cell11/15/2015
