Class Notes: Cells

Introduction to Cells

Cells are the basic structural and functional units of life. Every living organism is made up of one or
more cells.

Types of Cells

There are two main types of cells: Prokaryotic (without a nucleus, e.g., bacteria) and Eukaryotic
(with a nucleus, e.g., plant and animal cells).

Cell Structure

Key parts include: Cell membrane (controls entry/exit), Cytoplasm (gel-like substance inside),
Nucleus (control center), and Organelles like mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes.

Plant vs Animal Cells

Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole. Animal cells lack a cell wall
but have centrioles and smaller vacuoles.

Functions of Cells

Cells provide structure, produce energy, carry genetic material, and perform specialized tasks in
multicellular organisms.

Cell Theory

1) All living things are made of cells. 2) The cell is the basic unit of life. 3) All cells come from
pre-existing cells.

Conclusion

Understanding cells helps explain how life functions, grows, and reproduces.
