Lecture 18: what it means to be a single cell
What is a cell?
- Cells are the fundamental building blocks of life
- All living organisms are made up of cells and the materials produced by them
- Cells are small, membrane-bound compartments in which most biological reactions
occur
- Cells come in very different sizes
- They have the same basic structure but differ in the details
- Prokaryotes do not have a nucleus and organelles
- Eukaryotes do have a nucleus and organelles (mitochondrial (all) and chloroplasts
(plants))
- Animal and plant cells differ in some key aspect
- Plant cells have a cell wall, which allows them to grow tall
- But animal cells can change shape
Most cells are very small

Document Summary

Lecture 18: what it means to be a single cell. Cells are the fundamental building blocks of life. All living organisms are made up of cells and the materials produced by them. Cells are small, membrane-bound compartments in which most biological reactions occur. They have the same basic structure but differ in the details. Prokaryotes do not have a nucleus and organelles. Eukaryotes do have a nucleus and organelles (mitochondrial (all) and chloroplasts (plants)) Animal and plant cells differ in some key aspect. Plant cells have a cell wall, which allows them to grow tall. 1673 van leeuwenhoek invents the microscope a(cid:374)d starts to see little thi(cid:374)gs the (cid:271)irth of (cid:373)i(cid:272)ro(cid:271)iolog(cid:455) but also the three kingdoms of life: plants, animals, Do not contain nucleus and rarely harbor membrane-bound organelles.
