Schwann and Schleidon

Rudolph Virchow
1st to view cells “tiny boxes”– cork
Robert Hooke

1st to view living cells in drop of water– “little beasties”
Anton Von Leeuwenhoek
Size
Function
Organization
Diverse
Maintaining a stable internal environment
pH, temp, salt concentration, water, etc
Homeostasis
"down" the concentration gradient (low to high) NO ENERGY REQUIRED Diffusion Osmosis Facilitated diffusion Ion channels **EQUALIBRIUM
Passive transport
“Up” the concentration gradient high to low
Requires energy (ARP)
Sodium/potassium pump
Endocytosis (phagocytosis and pinocytosis)
Exocytosis
Active transport
More water on inside of cell
Hypertonic
More water outside cell
Hypotonic
Same amount of water inside and outside of cell
Isotonic environment
