The Cell Theory

All organisms are composed of one or more cells.

7.1 Cell Discovery and Theory

Cellular Structure and Function

The cell is the basic unit of structure and organization of organisms.

Chapter 7

All cells come from preexisting cells.

Plasma Membrane Thin, flexible boundary between the cell

and its environment

7.2 The Plasma Membrane

Cellular Structure and Function

Allows nutrients into the cell Allows waste to leave the cell

Selective Permeability

Cellular Structure and Function

The plasma membrane controls the movement ofsubstances into and out of the cell.

Plasma Membrane Controls the amount of a

substance entering the cell Controls the amount of a

substance leaving the cell

The plasma membrane is composed of the phospholipid bilayer.

Cellular Structure and Function

A phospholipid molecule is composed of a glycerol backbone, two fatty acid chains, and a phosphate group.
