Chapter 1:
                   The fundamental unit of life.

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 perform.

5) A cell generally shows plasma membrane, nucleus and cytoplasm

6) Plasma membrane is a thin, selectively permeable membrane,
covering
the cell and is made up of lipids and proteins.

7) Functions of plasma membrane :
i) It separates the contents of a cell from its outside environment.
ii) It regulates the flow of substances to and from the cell through
diffusion,
facilitated diffusion, active transport and endocytosis.

8) Osmosis is diffusion of water through a selectively permeable
membrane.

9) A cell placed in different solutions:
i. hypotonic solution : A cell placed in it will gain water.
ii. hypertonic solution: A cell placed in it will lose water: Also known
as
plasmolysis.
iii. isotonic solution: A cell placed in it will neither gain nor lose water

10)Cells of Plants, fungi & bacteria: Contain both plasma membrane
& cell wall.
Cell wall is rigid, non-living & outer most covering, composed mainly
of
cellulose.

11) When placed in hypertonic solution, a living plant cell shows
plasmolysis

12) Cell wall provides mechanical strength to the cell. It permits the
cell to
withstand huge changes in the surrounding medium.
13) Nucleus is an important, spherical, usually centrally located
constituent
of the cell and is bounded by double layered nuclear envelope.

14) The nucleus of a dividing cell shows rod-shaped chromosomes,
made up
of DNA and proteins. In a non-dividing cell, the chromosomes
elongate and
take the form of thread-like chromatin.

15) DNA molecules are responsible for transmitting hereditary
information
from one generation to the next.

16) Nucleus controls all metabolic activities of the cell.

17) Depending on the presence or absence of nucleus, cells may be
prokaryotic or eukaryotic.
i) Prokaryotic cells lack a well-defined nucleus and instead show
nucleoid, an
undefined nuclear region containing the genetic material.
ii) Eukaryotic cells possess a proper nucleus with nuclear membrane.

18) Cytoplasm is the fluid content of the cell, occurring between
nucleus and

plasma membrane. It stores several vital chemicals and is the site of
certain
important metabolic pathways.
19) Several specialized cell organelles are present in the cytoplasm.
These
organelles perform different kinds of metabolic activities and are kept
separate from each other.

20) The various cell organelles include endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi
apparatus, lysosomes, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles and
centrosome.

21) Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an extensive, interconnected,
membranebound
network of tubes and sheets.

22) Ribosomes are attached to the surface of Rough Endoplasmic
Reticulum
(RER) and are absent in Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER)

23) Functions of ER :
i) It synthesizes important proteins (RER) and lipids (SER).
ii) It provides a pathway for intracellular transport of materials.
iii) SER of liver cells is important for detoxification.

24) Golgi apparatus is a network of stacked, flattened, membrane
bound
sacs and vesicles.

25) Golgi apparatus carries out the storage, modification and
packaging of
substances manufactured in the cell and is also involved in lysosome
formation.

26) The spherical, sac-like lysosomes contain powerful digestive
enzymes
and form the waste disposal system of the cell. They are also known
as
‘suicide bags’.

27) Mitochondria and plastids are each covered by 2 membranes and
possess
their own DNA and ribosomes.
28) Mitochondria are the ‘powerhouses of the cell’, providing energy
for
various metabolic activities.

29) Chromoplasts and leucoplasts are the 2 types of plastids present
in plant
cells.

30) Chloroplasts are chromoplasts containing chlorophyll and carry
out
photosynthesis in plants.

31) Leucoplasts store starch, oil and protein granules.

32) The large central vacuole of mature plant cells provides turgidity
to the
cell and also stores important substances.

33) In unicellular organisms, vacuoles play important roles in nutrition
and
osmoregulation.

34) Ribososmes are sites of protein synthesis.

35) Centrosome is found only in animal cells and consists of 2
centrioles.
Centrosome helps in cell division.

37) The membrane-bound cell organelles are absent in prokaryotic
cells.

38) Differences between plant cell and animal cell.

39) The basic structural organization of the cell helps it to perform important
functions like respiration, nutrition, excretion and protein synthesis.


Definitions

1) Cell - An autonomous self-replicating structure that forms the structural,
functional and biological unit of all living organisms.

2) Prokaryotic cell – A cell characterized by the absence of a distinct,
membrane-bound nucleus or membrane-bound organelles, and by DNA that
is not organized into chromosomes.

2) Nucleoid – An undefined nuclear region of the prokaryotic cell,
containing
the genetic material (nucleic acids).

3) Eukaryotic cell – A cell containing a membrane-bounded nucleus and
membrane-bounded organelles.

4) Unicellular organism – Organism having only one cell.

5) Multicellular organism - Organism consisting of more than one cell,
wherein the differentiated cells perform specialized functions in the
organism.

6) Diffusion – The spontaneous movement of a substance from a region of
its
higher concentration to a region of its lower concentration.

7) Osmosis – The movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane
from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water
concentration.

8) Hypertonic solution - A solution that has a higher solute concentration
than the one to which it is compared (eg - some kind of cell).

9) Hypotonic solution - A solution that has a lower solute concentration than
the one to which it is compared (eg - some kind of cell).

10) Isotonic solution - A solution that has the same tonicity as another
solution with which it is compared.

11) Plasmolysis - Shrinkage or contraction of the protoplasm away from the
wall of a living plant or bacterial cell, caused by loss of water through
osmosis.

12) Cell organelle – A specialized subunit within a cell that has a specific
function, and is usually separately enclosed within its own membrane.

13) Genes - A hereditary unit consisting of a sequence of DNA that occupies
a specific location on a chromosome and determines a particular
characteristic in an organism.

14) Membrane biogenesis – The process of synthesizing the biological
membranes.

15) Plasma membrane – The thin, selectively permeable membrane
composed of lipids and proteins which surrounds an entire cell and regulates
the flow of substances to and from the cell.

16) Cell wall – The rigid, non-living, outer covering of certain cells (like
plant
and bacteria), composed mainly of cellulose and providing the cell with
structural support and protection.

17) Cytoplasm - The jellylike material of a cell that is enclosed within the
plasma membrane, except the nucleus and contains the cell organelles.

  • 2. 10)Cells of Plants, fungi & bacteria: Contain both plasma membrane & cell wall. Cell wall is rigid, non-living & outer most covering, composed mainly of cellulose. 11) When placed in hypertonic solution, a living plant cell shows plasmolysis 12) Cell wall provides mechanical strength to the cell. It permits the cell to withstand huge changes in the surrounding medium. 13) Nucleus is an important, spherical, usually centrally located constituent of the cell and is bounded by double layered nuclear envelope. 14) The nucleus of a dividing cell shows rod-shaped chromosomes, made up of DNA and proteins. In a non-dividing cell, the chromosomes elongate and take the form of thread-like chromatin. 15) DNA molecules are responsible for transmitting hereditary information from one generation to the next. 16) Nucleus controls all metabolic activities of the cell. 17) Depending on the presence or absence of nucleus, cells may be prokaryotic or eukaryotic. i) Prokaryotic cells lack a well-defined nucleus and instead show nucleoid, an undefined nuclear region containing the genetic material. ii) Eukaryotic cells possess a proper nucleus with nuclear membrane. 18) Cytoplasm is the fluid content of the cell, occurring between nucleus and For More School Notes & Projects Visit www.toppersarena.com

These organelles perform different kinds of metabolic activities and are kept separate from each other. 20) The various cell organelles include endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles and centrosome. 21) Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an extensive, interconnected, membranebound network of tubes and sheets. 22) Ribosomes are attached to the surface of Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER) and are absent in Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER) 23) Functions of ER : i) It synthesizes important proteins (RER) and lipids (SER). ii) It provides a pathway for intracellular transport of materials. iii) SER of liver cells is important for detoxification. 24) Golgi apparatus is a network of stacked, flattened, membrane bound sacs and vesicles. 25) Golgi apparatus carries out the storage, modification and packaging of substances manufactured in the cell and is also involved in lysosome formation. 26) The spherical, sac-like lysosomes contain powerful digestive enzymes and form the waste disposal system of the cell. They are also known as ‘suicide bags’. For More School Notes & Projects Visit www.toppersarena.com
  • 4. 27) Mitochondria and plastids are each covered by 2 membranes and possess their own DNA and ribosomes. 28) Mitochondria are the ‘powerhouses of the cell’, providing energy for various metabolic activities. 29) Chromoplasts and leucoplasts are the 2 types of plastids present in plant cells. 30) Chloroplasts are chromoplasts containing chlorophyll and carry out photosynthesis in plants. 31) Leucoplasts store starch, oil and protein granules. 32) The large central vacuole of mature plant cells provides turgidity to the cell and also stores important substances. 33) In unicellular organisms, vacuoles play important roles in nutrition and osmoregulation. 34) Ribososmes are sites of protein synthesis. 35) Centrosome is found only in animal cells and consists of 2 centrioles. Centrosome helps in cell division. 37) The membrane-bound cell organelles are absent in prokaryotic cells. 38) Differences between plant cell and animal cell.
