Chapter Outline j
I. Introduction
1. This chapter provides a brief review of the basics of a cell, including cellular
j j j j j j j j j j j j j
components, biological energy, and an overview of a cell’s natural life span.
j j j j j j j j j j j j
2. Key Terms j
a. Cells – basic living, structural, and functional units of the human body
j j j j j j j j j j j
b. Eukaryotic cells – multicellular organisms j j j j
c. Prokaryotic cells – primitive cells j j j j
d. Plasma membrane – sheet-like structure that encapsulates and j j j j j j j
surrounds the cell, allowing it to exist as a distinct unit
j j j j j j j j j j j
3. Figures and Tables j j
a. Figure 1.1 – three-dimensional depiction of a typical mammalian liver cell
j j j j j j j j j j
II. Components of Cells j j
A. Plasma Membrane j
1. Sheet-like structure that encapsulates and surrounds the cell. It is j j j j j j j j j
asymmetrical and considered to be a fluid structure
j j j j j j j j
2. Key Terms j
a. Hydrophobic – molecule or part of molecule that repels water but has j j j j j j j j j j j
strong affinity for nonpolar substances
j j j j j
b. Receptors – macromolecules that bind a signal molecule with a high j j j j j j j j j j

, B. Cytoplasmic Matrix j
1. Consists of filaments or fibers and provides the cell with structural support,
j j j j j j j j j j j
framework, network to direct movement, means of independent location,
j j j j j j j j j
jpathway for intercellular communication, and possible transfer of RNA
j j j j j j j j
jand DNA j
2. Key Terms j
a. Microtubules –hollow,cylindrical cytoskeletalstructurescomposedof j j j j j j j
the protein tubulin that act to support the cell structure
j j j j j j j j j j
b. Intermediate filaments – strong, ropelike cytoskeletal fibers that are j j j j j j j j
made of protein and that function to provide mechanical stability to cells
j j j j j j j j j j j j
c. Microfilaments – solid cytoskeletal structures made of a double-helix j j j j j j j j
polymer of the protein actin that play a role in cell motility
j j j j j j j j j j j j
3. Microtubules, intermediate filaments, and microfilaments – make up j j j j j j j
jthe cytoskeleton

C. Mitochondrion
1. Cellular organelle that is the site of energy production by oxidative
j j j j j j j j j j
jphosphorylation and the site of tricarboxylic acid cycle j j j j j j j
2. Key terms j
a. Mitochondria – primary sites of oxygen use and ATP production in cells j j j j j j j j j j j
b. Oxidative phosphorylation – pathway in the mitochondria that makes j j j j j j j j
ATP from ADP and Pi
j j j j j
c. Electron transport chain – sequential transfer of electrons from reduced j j j j j j j j j
coenzymes to oxygen that is coupled with ATP formation and occurs within
j j j j j j j j j j j j
the mitochondria
j j
3. Mitochondrial membrane – consists of a matrix or interior space j j j j j j j j j
jsurrounded by a double membrane j j j j
4. Mitochondrial matrix – metabolic enzyme systems that function by j j j j j j j j
jcatalyzing reactions of the tricarboxylic acid and fatty acid j j j j j j j j
oxidation
