Biology is the science of living things. It studies cells, which are the basic units of life, and how they are organized into more complex organisms. All cells share several key characteristics: they are composed of organelles that perform essential functions, use energy, maintain internal balance, and reproduce. Cells can be either prokaryotic or eukaryotic, with eukaryotic cells generally being larger and more complex due to membrane-bound organelles like the nucleus. The introduction provides a high-level overview of biology and the basic components and functions of cells.

Biology Require energy to maintain their molecular
and cellular organization, grow and Derived from two Greek words: Bios and reproduce Logos; 4. Homeostasis the science that deals with living things. Maintain stable internal conditions studies everything about the living things (forms and functions) and how it relates to Temperature, pH, heart rate, etc its environment. 5. Growth and development Characteristics of Life Grow occurs as the result of cell division 1. Composed of Cells and cell enlargement Cell division is the formation of two cells All living things are composed of cells from a preexisting cell In multicellular organisms, many are New cells enlarge as they mature specialized to perform specific functions When a cell grows to a size where its Cells are always very small surface area isn’t big enough for its 2. Organization volume, the cell divides
Organized at both the molecular and 6. Reproduction
cellular levels All species have the ability to reproduce Cells are organized into tissues, tissues o Not essential to survival of individual into organs, and organs into organ but is essential for continuation of a system. species In multicellular organisms, cells and groups of cells 7. Responsiveness (tissues) are organized by their function Respond to stimuli in the external Cells → tissues environment Tissues → organs Detect and respond to changes in light, heat, sound and chemical and mechanical Organs →Systems contact. Systems →ORGANISM 8. Adaptation 3. Energy Use is a process which allows organisms to become gradually better suited to Use energy in a process called metabolism survive in their environment. o Sum of all chemical processes All organisms should adapt to their habitat or they will die.
Cell Structure and Function
Cells Smallest living unit of life. Most are microscopic Cell Size
Characteristics of All Cells
It has a surrounding membrane. Protoplasm –comprising the living part of a cell. Organelles – structures are for cell function. Cell Types Eukaryotic Prokaryotic
Prokaryotic Cells Prokaryote- from Greek, pro “before” and karyon “kernel” Include bacteria and blue-green algae. Eukaryotic Cells Eukaryotes-from Greek, eu “before” and karyon “kernel” Include plants, animals, protists and fungi
Genetic DNA in chromosomes is in membrane- bounded
DNA is in cytoplasm Organization nucleus.
Organelles No membrane- bound organelles Membrane- bound organelles
Binary Fission Mitosis, meiosis
Reproduction Mostly asexual Mostly sexual
Organelles Movement Across the Plasma Membrane
Cellular machinery A few molecules move freely: o Water, Carbon dioxide, Ammonia, Two general kinds Oxygen o Derived from membranes Carrier proteins transport some molecules o Bacteria-like organelles o Proteins embedded in lipid bilayer Bacteria-Like Organelles Membrane Proteins Derived from symbiotic bacteria 1. Channels or transporters Endosymbiotic theory o Move molecules in one direction o is an evolutionary theory of the 2. Receptors origin of eukaryotic cells from prokaryotic organisms. o Recognize certain chemicals Plasma Membrane 3. Glycoproteins Contains cell contents o Identify cell type Double layer of phospholipids & proteins 4. Enzymes Phospholipids o Catalyze production of substances Polar Cell Walls o Hydrophylic head Found in plants, fungi, & many o Hydrophobic tail protists Interacts with water Surrounds plasma membrane Cell Wall Differences Plants – mostly cellulose Fungi – contain chitin Cytoplasm Nucleus Viscous fluid containing organelles Control center of cell components of cytoplasm Double membrane o Interconnected filaments & fibers Contains o Fluid = cytosol o Chromosomes o Organelles (not nucleus) o Nucleolus o store substances Nuclear Envelope Separates nucleus from rest of cell Cytoskeleton DNA Filaments & fibers Hereditary material Made of 3 fiber types Chromosomes o Microfilaments o DNA o Microtubules o Proteins o Intermediate filaments o Form for cell division 3 functions: Chromatin o mechanical support Nucleolus o anchor organelles Most cells have 2 or more Directs synthesis of RNA o help move substances Forms ribosomes Cilia & Flagella Membranous Organelles o Provide motility Functional components within cytoplasm Cilia Bound by membranes
o Short Endoplasmic Reticulum
o Used to move substances outside Helps move substances within cells
human cells Network of interconnected membranes
Flagella Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
o Whip-like extensions Ribosomes attached to surface
o Not all ribosomes attached to rough o Found on sperm cells ER Centrioles It manufactures, processes and transport proteins for export from cell. Pairs of microtubular structures Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum Play a role in cell division No attached ribosomes It functions for lipid synthesis and metabolism of carbohydrates. Also works for detoxification of drugs Golgi Apparatus Other Organelles Involved in synthesis of plant cell wall Release & store energy Packaging & shipping station of cell Types o Mitochondria Lysosomes (release energy) Contain digestive enzymes o Chloroplasts Functions o Aid in cell renewal (store energy) o Break down old cell parts Mitochondria o Digests invaders Have their own DNA Vacuoles Bound by double membrane Membrane bound storage sacs More common in plants than animals Break down fuel molecules (cellular Contents respiration) o Water o Food o Glucose o wastes o Fatty acids Release energy o ATP Chloroplasts Solar energy capturing organelle help turn sunlight into food that can be used by the cell .
