CELLS
UNIT 4: CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
CELLS COME IN A VARIETY OF SHAPES
AND SIZES THAT SUIT THEIR DIVERSE
FUNCTION. THERE ARE AT LEAST 200
TYPES OF CELLS.
Explain the relationship between cell shape and cell
Explain function.
STUDENT
OBJECTIVE Describe Describe the three basic parts of a cell.
S
Compare Compare prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells.
• Cytoplasm:
• All the fluid
• The cytoskeleton
• All of the organelles (except
nucleus)
• Cytosol is the part of the cytoplasm
that includes molecules and small
particles, but without the membrane-
bound organelles.
CONTROL
CENTER
• The nucleus is a
membrane bound organelle
that carries the coded
information in the form of
DNA.
• Some cells have the DNA
float freely within the cell.
TWO BASIC
TYPES OF
CELLS
• The earliest cells on
Earth were simple
cells similar to some
present-day bacteria.
• As cell evolved, they
differentiated into two
major types:
1. Prokaryotes
2. Eukaryotes
PROKARYOTES
