The Living Units
Cell Theory:
• The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of life
• Organismal activity depends on individual and collective activity of cells
• Biochemical activities of cells are dictated by subcellular structure
• Continuity of life has a cellular basis

• Diffuse directly through the lipid bilayer
• Diffuse through channel proteins
• Molecules disperse evenly

Cellular MotionFlagella
• Projections are longer
• A single propulsive flagellum
• Movement is achieved by propelling itself across the surface or environment
• Basal bodies in the centrioles form the bases for ceia and flagella

Nucleus
• The control center containing genetic
• Largest cytoplasmic organelle - 5µm
• Nuclear envelop –dbl membrane barrier
• Nucleoli – DNA & RNA for genetic synthesis
• Chromatin – threadlike coils that form chromosomes in cell division. Genes

Cell Growth and ReproductionCell Life Cycle
• Cell division – essential for growth and tissue repair.
• Cells die and continuously reproduce• Some reproduce faster than others (skin,
intestinal vs. liver).
• Some loose ability to divide @ maturation
(nervous tissue, skeletal muscle, heart, RBCs)
• The DNA replicates before cell division

Cell Growth and Reproduction
Cell Division - M Phase (Mitotic)
• 2 phases: Mitosis & Cytokinesis
• Phase 1: Mitosis – nuclear divisiona) prophase
b) metaphase
c) Anaphase
d) telophase
• Phases merge together

Cell Division - Mitosis
Phase 2 – Cytokinesis
• Cytokinesis - cytoplasmic division
• Cleavage furrow formed in late anaphase by contractile ring
• Cytoplasm is pinched into two parts after mitosis ends
• The forming of 2 daughter cells
