Title: KEY CONCEPT Cells are the Basic unit of life.


1
  • KEY CONCEPT Cells are the Basic unit of life.

2
  • The cell theory grew out of the work of many
    scientists and improvements in the microscope.
  • Many scientists contributed to the cell theory.

3
Anton van Leeuwenhook
  • In the 1600s he was the first scientist to
    describe living cells using a simple microscope
    (contained one lens).

4
Robert Hooke
  • He was an English scientist who lived at the
    same time as van Leeuwenhoock.
  • Hooke was the first to identify cells and name
    them.
  • He observed that cork was composed of tiny,
    hollow boxes that he called CELLS.

5
Matthias Schleiden
  • German scientist who observed many types of
    plants and determined that all plants consist of
    cells.

6
Theodor Schwann
  • German scientist who determined that all animals
    consist of cells.

7
  • Rudolf Virchow
  • Proposed that all cells come from other cells.

8
  • The cell theory grew out of the work of many
    scientists and improvements in the microscope.
  • Many scientists contributed to the cell theory.
  • More was learned about cells
    as microscopes
    improved.

9
  • The cell theory grew out of the work of many
    scientists and improvements in the microscope.
  • Many scientists contributed to the cell theory.
  • More was learned about cells
    as microscopes
    improved.
  • The cell theory is a unifying
    concept of biology.

10
Before microscopes were invented, diseases were
thought to be caused by curses and supernatural
events.By using microscopes scientists realized
they were entering a new world---one of
microorganisms.Microscopes enabled scientists
to view and study cells.
  • The History of the Cell Theory

11
  • Early studies led to the development of the cell
    theory.
  • The Cell theory has three principles.
  • All organisms are made of cells.

12
  • Early studies led to the development of the cell
    theory.
  • The Cell theory has three principles.
  • All organisms are made of cells.
  • All existing cells are produced by other living
    cells.

13
  • Early studies led to the development of the cell
    theory.
  • The Cell theory has three principles.
  • All organisms are made of cells.
  • All existing cells are produced by other living
    cells.
  • The cell is the most basic unit of life.

14
  • All cells share certain characteristics.

15
  • All cells share certain characteristics.
  • Cells tend to be microscopic.

16
  • All cells share certain characteristics.
  • Cells tend to be microscopic.
  • All cells are enclosed
    by a membrane.

17
  • All cells share certain characteristics.
  • Cells tend to be microscopic.
  • All cells are enclosed
    by a membrane.
  • All cells are filled with
    cytoplasm.

18
  • There are two cell types eukaryotic cells and
    prokaryotic cells.

19
  • There are two cell types eukaryotic cells and
    prokaryotic cells.
  • Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus.

20
  • There are two cell types eukaryotic cells and
    prokaryotic cells.
  • Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus.
  • Eukaryotic cells have membrane-
    bound
    organelles.
  • (multi-cellular organisms)
  • ex. -humans
  • -other animals

21
  • There are two cell types eukaryotic cells and
    prokaryotic cells.
  • Prokaryotic cells do not
    have a nucleus.

22
  • There are two cell types eukaryotic cells and
    prokaryotic cells.
  • Prokaryotic cells do not
    have a nucleus.
  • Prokaryotic cells do not
    have membrane-bound

    organelles.
  • AKA (Unicellular organisms)
  • ex. bacteria
  • virus
