1. 1 INTRODUCTION TO CELL Metabolism

Living organisms are

Cells are the smallest unit of life . Excretion
-
All cells come from pre -

existing cells Homeostasis

↳ by the process of mitosis and cell division .
Reproduction
↳ there's no spontaneous creation of cells .




Exceptions to cell theory History Of Cell Theory
1 . Skeletal muscle 1665 Robert HOOK observed a plant cell and

to refer the smallest unit
" "
↳ made of muscle fibres used the word cell

↳ multinucleated Of life . There was a need to clearly define what

2. Giant Algae cells actually are and their properties .




↳ unicellular 1818 Three scientists developed the cell theory

↳ visible with naked eye which offers a widely explanation of 'The relationship

3. A septate Fungi between cells and living things
↳ with many nuclei Development of cell theory was made possible
↳ no dividing cell wall thanks to advances in microscopy .




↳ posses continuous / Shared cytoplasm .




Electron microscope : more details of cell structure .




Unicellular (1940s )
consist only of 1 cell

↳ has to carry out all the functions of life .
Surface area TO volume ratio
4. Paramecium metabolic rate of the cell is pro potion
↳ heterotrophic to volume of the cell .




> Cilia ( moving all direction ) > substances used in reaction must be

2 .
Euglena absorbed and waste products must be
3. Amoeba removed .




4. Chlamydomonas substances move into and out

> autotrophic ( make food with their large plasma membrane at the surface of cell .




Chloroplasts and photosynthesis ) very important for :
have cell wall > too small ,
substances will not enter

> TWO flagella > small cell may overheat bcs metabolism

> eye detects light produces heat faster




Multicellular human 220 All types call develop by differentat ion )

Different ation : process un specialised cells

different type of cells have different develop into cells with distinct structure and

> division of labour ,
in simple terms Emergent properties : the whole organism
function is Can do more
things than individual cells are
a a job or a role .




ex . function of red blood cells > carry oxygen capable of > interaction between

the different parts .





The whole is more than the sum

Of its parts .

, The difference between magnification and resolution


Magnification : degree to which the size of an image is larger than the image itself .





Resolution : degree to which it's possible to distinguish between two objects that are

very close together .




Eyepiece -
> ✗ 10

Objective magnification → ✗4 > ✗ 40 ( overall magnification )
> ✗ to > ✗ 100 ( overall magnification ) I
> ✗ 40 4 ✗ 400 ( overall magnification )
> ✗ 100 → ✗ 1000 ( overall magnification 1 A M


Magnification = size of image
actual size of Object


stem cells
A stem cell is that can form more cells
an undifferentiated cell of multicellular organism
of the same type indefinitely ,
and from which certain other kinds of cells arise by differentat .





Stem cells are ON SPECIALISED cells .





stem cells have the capacity to divide indetene-e.ly .





stem cells are not fully differentiated .
They can differentiate in different ways to produce
different type of cells .




4 TYPES OF STEM CELLS :

TOEI potent stem cells ( eight cells of the morula )

can differentiate into any type of cell , and can give rise to a complete organism .




Pluripotent stem cells ( embryonic stem cells of the blastocyst )
can differentiate into all body cells , but cannot give rise to a whole organism .




Multipotent stem cells ( umbilical cold stem cells I

differentiate into few related types of body cell
can a
closely .




Uni potent stem cells

can only differentiate into their associated cell type .




USE OF STEM CELLS TO TREAT DISEASE

regenerated tissue
]
-
produce ( skin for people who suffered burn )
Therapeutic
TO grow whole replacement organs ( hearts or kidneys )
TO produce large quantities of striated muscle fibres ,
or meat , for human consumption .




V


non -


therapeutic

small number of stem cells are still present in adult
body .




> give some human tissues considerable powers of regeneration and repair .
