  • Cells are very small in size
  • in 1665, Robert Hooke observed very thin slices of cork under a microscope
  • Cellula a latin word that means "small rooms"
  • Robert Hooke published his book called micrographia
  • Theodor Schwann extended this idea to animals as well
  • in1839 Theodore Schwannhe studied the animal tissues.
  • in 1855 ruldph virchowo bserved that cells comes from preexisting cells
  • the cell thoery states
    1.cells is the basic unit of life 2.all organism's consist if one or more cells 3.cells come from preexisting cells
  • eukaryotic cells these are bigger cells than prokaryotic cells
  • the word karyon means kernel
  • Eu means true
  • a prokaryote has its dna scattered in the region known as the nucleiod region
  • Prokaryotes have circular DNA and Cells walls
  • eukaryotes have linear DNA, plant and fungus cells have walls cells in it
  • DORA means
    D-DNA
    O-ORGANELLES
    R-REPRODUCTION
    A-AVEGRAGE SIZE
  • cell membrane it controls what passes in and out of the cell. this part present in both animals and plants cells
  • Cell walls this part plays a role in maintaining the shape of the cell and preventing it from excessive water uptake
  • flagella and cilia these are structures that hep animal cells
  • cytoplasm this is a gel like matrix where all the organelles are suspended within the cell
  • Nucleus the genetic material can be found
  • nuclear membrane it envelopes te nucleus and separate its contents from the cytoplasm
  • Ribososmes these are the organelles responsible for synthesizing proteins
  • centrioles these small,paired clyndrical structures are found near the nucleus
  • smooth er the one without ribososmes
  • rough ER the with ribososmes
  • golgi bodies they modify and process proteins
  • lysosomes plays a role in breaking down old organelles
  • mitochondrion it is the powerhouse of the cell. it is the site where energy in the form of adenodine is made
  • vacuole it stored food and water
  • chloroplast plants manufacturers their own food
  • Cell is the fundamental unit of life
  • tissue is a group of similar cells that work together to carry out a certain functions
