OBSERVE & ANALYSE


What do you
wonder about
today’s topic?
ROBERT HOOKE

CELLS WERE FIRST DISCOVERED BY HIM


IN 1665
ROBERT HOOKE’S MICROSCOPE
ROBERT OBSERVED :

CORK COMES FROM THE BARK HONEY COMB


OF THE TREE
ROBERT CALLED

• THESE LITTLE COMPARTMENTS AS CELLS.


• CELL IS A LATIN WORD FOR ‘ A LITTLE ROOM’.
• CELL IS A STRUCTURAL & FUNDAMENTAL UNIT OF
LIFE
HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHY
ARE CELLS SO SMALL IN SIZE??????
Why are cells so small??

Cell Types
Prokaryotes Eukaryotes

Plant Animal
Bacteria
Prokaryotes
• Are much more diverse in both habitat
and metabolism
• Are single-celled. Differentiation into
different cell types almost never occurs.
• Have no separate nucleus.
• The cell is surrounded by a membrane,
and cell wall but there are no internal
membrane-bound organelles
Eukaryotes
Cells with a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles

Plant Animal

CELL
• THE SHAPE AND SIZE OF CELLS ARE RELATED TO THE SPECIFIC
FUNCTION THEY PERFORM.
• EACH LIVING CELL HAS THE CAPACITY TO PERFORM CERTAIN BASIC
FUNCTIONS.
• CELL CONTAINS A SPECIFIC COMPONENT CALLED ORGANELLES.
• EACH KIND OF CELL ORGANELLE PERFORMS A SPECIAL FUNCTION.
• ALL CELLS ARE FOUND TO HAVE THE SAME
ORGANELLES,IRRESPECTIVE OF THEIR FUNCTION AND WHICH
ORGANISM THEY ARE FOUND IN.
QUIZ TIME
• Why are cells of different shapes and sizes found in the
human body?
• Who discovered cells, and how?
• Why is the cell called the structural and functional unit of
life?
MODEL ANSWERS
Why are cells of different shapes and sizes found in the human
body?

> The shape and size of the cells depend upon the
function they perform. In a human body, each
organ performs a specific function, hence the
cells of different organs have different shapes
and sizes.

Who discovered cells, and how?

> Cells were first discovered by Robert Hooke, in1665. He


observed a thin slice of cork under his self designed
microscope.This slice of cork resembled the structure
of the honeycomb consisting of small compartments.
He named these small compartments as cells.
Why is the cell called the structural and functional unit of
life?

> Cell is called the structural and functional unit of life


because
a) It gives structure to the living organism.

b) It helps the living organism to perform various life


functions.
