Class IX: Biology Chapter 5: The fundamental unit of life. Chapter Notes Key learnings: 1) In 1665‚ Robert Hooke first discovered and named the cells. 2) Cell is the structural and functional unit of all living organisms. 3) Organisms may be unicellular or multicellular. A single cell constitutes the unicellular organism whereas many cells coordinately function in case of multicellular organism. 4) The size‚ shape and volume of the cell are related to the specific function that they

Cell Organelles Nucleus Its function is to control the cell’s activities and retain the chromosomes. The nucleus is bound by a double membrane‚ the nuclear envelope. The nuclear envelope has pores in it to allow the transport of mRNA. The cytoplasm like material is called nucleoplasm which contains chromatin (coils of DNA and histone proteins)‚ it is chromatin that condenses to form chromosomes during cell division. Within the nucleus is a small spherical body called the nucleolus which

are distinctive in plant cells are as follows: Plant cells contain cell structures like cell wall‚ plastids‚ and large vacuoles. Cell wall provide plant cells rigidity and structural support and cell to cell interaction. Plastids help in storage of plant products. Chloroplasts aid in carrying out the process of photosynthesis to produce food for the plants. Vacuoles are water-filled‚ membrane bound organelles which stores useful materials. Plants have specialized cells in order to perform

Cells are considered the basic units of life in part because they come in discrete and easily recognizable packages. That’s because all cells are surrounded by a structure called the cell membrane. The cell is the very smallest unit of living matter. All living things including plants and animals are made up of cells. Cells are made of atoms‚ which are the smallest units of matter. There are many different kinds of cells. The two kinds you are most likely to be familiar with are animal and plant

Cell Theory In biology‚ cell theory is a scientific theory that describes the properties of cells‚ the basic unit of structure in every living thing. The initial development of the theory‚ during the mid-17th century‚ was made possible by advances in microscopy; the study of cells is called cell biology. Cell theory states that new cells are formed from pre-existing cells‚ and that the cell is a fundamental unit of structure‚ function and organization in all living organisms. It is one of the

Maintains the shape of the cell. | Vacuoles | Both | Plants have a large central vacuole. Animal cells have smaller ones. | Used to store nutrients and water in the cell. | Vesicles | Both | Similar structure to a vacuole. | Transports materials throughout a cell. | Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (rER) | Both | Network of membrane tubes which branch from the nuclear envelope.

The studies of Robert Hooke 1665 into a plant material would allow the determination of a pore like regular structure surrounded by a wall of which he called cells’ this in itself unbeknownst to him‚ was the discovery of the fundamental unit of all living things. In 1838 a botanist called Schleiden derived the theory The basic unit of structure and function of all living organisms is the cell.’ Over 150 years later this can be regarded as one of the most familiar and important facts within the
