Chapter 7 Flashcards
Robert Hooke
(English) mid 1600, used a microscope to view cork (cell) In little tiny rooms in a monetary, got the name cell
Anton van Leeuwenhoek
(Dutch) late 1600, trying to improve the microscope, saw protist in pond water
Robert Brown
(Scottish) mid 1800, named the nucleus, bottenist
Matthias Schldiden
(German) mid 1800, bottenist, discovered all plants are made of cells, basically came up with the cell theory
Theodor Schwann
(German) mid 1800, all animals are made of cells, basically came up with the cell theory
Rudolph Virchow
(Polish) mid 1800, discovered asexual cell reproduction
What is the cell theory (3 steps)
- All organisms are made up of one or more cells
- All living things are made up of cells, basic unit of structure and function
- Cells come from preexisting cells
Study parts of the microscopes

Steps to using a microscope (8)
- Move stage and objective as far apart as possible
- Clean all lenses and aperture with lens paper
- Adjust to low power objective
- Place cleaned and prepared slide on stage and at least one clip
- Turn microscope on
- Focus and center image using low power objective (adjust diaphragm)
- Switched to next highest objective, focus and center
- Switch to high power objective, focus using fine adjustment only. Image should be clear to view/draw
Light microscopes…
Uses light and lenses, zoom in up to 1,000 times its actual size
Electron microscopes (SEM- TEM- STM)….
Uses magnets and electrons, zoom in up to 500,000 times its actual size
SEM Microscope
Scanning electron microscope. Information about the surface topography and composition of the sample
TEM Microscope
Transmission electron microscope. See through the specimen
STM Microscope
Scanning tunneling electron microscope. Imaging surfaces at the atomic level
Stereoscope/ stereo microscope
- light and lenses
- larger specimens
- usually around 10x
- under and above lighting
What kingdoms are prokaryotic cells?
Simple, small
- 2 kingdoms of bacteria
What kingdoms are eukaryotic cells?
Multicellular
- protist
- fungus
- plant
- animal
Prokaryotic cell:
does not have a nucleus, unicellular, doesn’t have membrane-bound organelles, has a plasma membrane
Eukaryotic cells
Bigger, complex, has nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, has a plasma membrane
Endosymbiont theory
Eukaryotic cells have evolved from prokaryotic cells, one cell eats another and that one reproduces, symbiotic, mutual relationship, autotrophic bacteria make food
Plasma membrane
Skin for a cell
- allows nutrients to go in and out, allows waste to leave, 2 layers, fluid
How does the plasma membrane work?
Selectively permeable (chooses what goes in and out)
Phospholipid bilayer
Glycerol with 2 fatty acid tails hanging from them. Polar head with 2 non polar tails
Other components of a fluid mosaic model
Proteins, cholesterol, carbohydrates
