Title: How does cellular respiration work? What Cleans up a cell
1The Cell
By Alex Vo
and Adnan Abbuthalha
2Whats a cell?
- All living things are broken down into tiny
little dots called cells. These dots are so
small you cant even see them. - Yet, they are the what you need to survive on
Earth. - Cells hold all of your biological needs in order
to keep you a living thing. - If you dont have them, then you might as well
disappear into thin air.
3What does it do?
- The purpose of cell is to create life and
maintain it. - Each cell has a different function that helps our
body develop healthily. - These tiny things make up our whole entire body
from scratch and makes us into a walking, running
thinking machine (not really).
4The Diversity of Cells
Bacteria Cells make up the bread and mushrooms
you eat
- Cells come in all sorts and sizes. They perform
many types of jobs in order to keep YOU alive.
Muscle Cell produces energy so that you can
run and have fun
Red Blood Cell carry blood through your body
White Blood Cell fight bad bacteria that can get
you sick.
5Organization of a Cell
- Most cells are classified as a prokaryotic cell
or a eukaryotic cell.
6Prokaryotic Cells and Eukaryotic Cells
- A prokaryotic cell is different from a eukaryotic
cell because of the fact that it has no nucleus.
Its like a dumb cell with no brain. But,
besides the nucleus, everything else is the same
as a eukaryotic cell..
7Plant or Animal Cells?
- For a prokaryotic cell, theres always going to
be a cell wall, yet for a eukaryotic cell, its
different. - Eukaryotic cells are divided into plants and
animal cells. The difference is the fact that
plant cells have a cell wall and an animal cell
does not. - And obviously plant cells make up plants and
animal cells make animals and humans.

9What energizes cells?
- The Mitochondria
- They are the batteries of a cell and keeps it
constantly running. ( think energizer bunny) - 1-1000 mitochondria can exist in a cell depending
on how hard its job is - Its job is to gathers energy, kind of like your
stomach, which takes in nutrients, breaks them
down, and change them into energy that the cell
can use (ATP). - The way this all occurs is Cellular Respiration.
10How does cellular respiration work?
- Cellular respiration is the way that food is
broken down into ATP (energy) with oxygen.
11How does cellular respiration work?
Thats the glucose
First, the glucose( sugar from the food that you
ate) is brought through the outer membrane into
the inner membrane
12How does cellular respiration work?
Next, it enters the matrix where its like a
river full of water and enzyme( proteins that
causes chemical reactions). From there, oxygen
from the water is added and at the same time the
enzymes are beginning to mix the glucose and
oxygen together. This whole process is called
Krebs Cycle( because it was found by some guy
named Hans Krebs)
13How does cellular respiration work?
ATP
Finally, it ends its journey at the end and exit
the inner membrane and after that, the outer
membrane. This time its not just any type of
energy. Its ATP!
14What Cleans up a cell?
- A lysosome is another worker in the cell that has
many enzymes which helps digest nutrients and
other materials. - It can digest things like lipids, carbs, and
proteins which mostly come from the food that you
eat. - A lysosome also helps in removing debris and dead
materials in a cell, kind of like a vacuum. - This all occurs with autophagy.
15Whats autophagy
- Here are the steps
- First a membrane from the endoplasmic reticulum
surrounds the unwanted material isolating it from
the outside which prevents decomposing from
spreading and infection. Its like a gas chamber
which keeps everything in. - Then, the lysosome comes in and attaches itself
to the membrane. It forms a passage from itself
to the organelle( big word for something in a
cell). This passage is called an autophagic
vacuole. - Finally the lysosome sends its deadly enzymes
through the autophagic vacuole and destroys the
organelle.
16Cell Wall
- A cell wall in only found in prokaryotic cells
and eukaryotic plant cells - Its made of strong fibers, made from
carbohydrates (carbs.) and proteins, and woven
together to be called cellulose - The purpose of a cell wall is to protect the cell
from injuries and intruding materials that can
harm the cell.
17Ribosomes
- Ribosomes are found on the rough endoplasmic
reticulum and are floating in the cytoplasm. - Proteins are made here with special coded
instructions from the nucleus, which makes all of
them unique.
18How do ribosomes make protein?
- To make proteins, the two parts of a ribosome
must connect with RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) from the
nucleus. The RNA are lined with amino acids. - These amino acids get stripped off with the
instructions from the RNA. - From there the proteins are created with the
given info from the RNA. - Its basically like a protein factory and the
RNAs are the messangers from the nucleus.
19Cell/Plasma membrane
- The cell membrane is the thin, double layer of
lipids( oils and fats from things that you ate)
surrounding a cell. - A cell membrane protects and helps support a cell
while also allowing interaction with the outside.
20Passage through the Cell Membrane
- The cell membrane allows sodium, potassium,
calcium, and a few other things to enter and exit
the cell. - One method of passing through the cell membrane
is active transport. In this, particles move from
areas of low concentration to areas of high
concentration. Active transportation does require
energy. - Another way to put it is like moving from a less
crowded room to a more crowded room.
21Diffusion and Osmosis
- Another method of transportation is called
diffusion. In diffusion, molecules move from
areas of high concentration to areas of low
concentration. This makes sense since particles
in general usually move to where there is more
space. - The diffusion of water is given the special term
osmosis. - Its like moving from a crowded area to an area
that isnt densely populated.
22Vacuoles
These are some cholesterol vacuoles. The central
is the cholesterol. The green material
surrounding it is the vacuole.
- Its a single membrane surrounding the liquid or
solid object - Theres nothing special about a vacuole, its
just a sac that can hold many different types of
materials. - There are many types of vacuoles in a cell.
- In a plant cell, theres a central vacuole thats
used to store water, which is important for the
plant to survive.
23The Importance of a Central Vacuole in a Plant
Cell
- The central vacuoles stores salts, minerals,
nutrients, proteins, and pigments (material that
gives plants its certain colors). - All of these things in the vacuole are important
especially the water, to the plant cell because
its basically what keeps it from dying.
24Centrioles
- Cells do not give birth or reproduce, instead
they divide in a way called mitosis. - Centrioles are things that help the cell to split
up, kind of like forming a clone. - These cell parts are found in pairs and
perpendicular, which means they form a 90 degrees
angle. - Theyre surrounded by groups of three
microtubules. - Centrioles are mostly found in animal cells and
not that often in plant cells.
25What Do Centrioles Do in Mitosis?
- First, the pair of cetrioles make a copy of
itself, so theres 4 now. - As the cells begin to split, each pair runs to
the opposite ends of the cells. - Their microtubules shoot out and connect to each
other forming a watermelon shape. - This formation will allow the chromosomes to
divide into two groups evenly and be able to put
them into orders once the cell splits.
26Plastids
- Plastids are only found in plant cells or other
things that use photosynthesis (the way of
gaining energy with the sun) - Theyre found in the all around the cytoplasm(
jelly like material surrounding a plant cell,
after the cell wall). - A plastids job is to store molecules, which can
vary depending on the type of plastid . - There are many types of plastids in a plant cell.
- 3 types of plastids are chloroplast, chromoplast,
and leucoplast.
27Chloroplasts
- Plants make their own food with these.
- Chloroplasts are the areas where sunlight is
gathered and turned into sugar for the plant to
use. The process has to do with photosynthesis. - The stroma is the area where chemical reactions
take place and sugar is created. - The thylakoid holds chlorophylls that gather the
suns energy before being changed into sugar. - One thylakoid stack is called a granum.
- The stroma lamellae is like the skeleton of
chloroplasts that keeps it all together.
28Photosynthesis in the Chloroplasts
- First, the plant shouldve already absorbed water
and carbon dioxide from the air around it. - Next,the chlorophylls in thylakoids absorb in the
suns energy and sends that energy to the stroma.
- The stroma begins the mixing of water and carbon
dioxide. - Finally glucose ( sugar) is formed.
- Oxygen is also created. Thats why people think
its bad cutting down trees, because its
lowering the amount of oxygen in the air. - Its the opposite of how the mitochiondria works
since the mitochondria breaks down food to create
gluclose and chloroplasts build up to make
glucose.
29Chromoplast
- Its another plastid that holds a plants pigments
(material that makes a plants color, mostly
leaves). - It hold many pigments, yet does not hold any
chlorophylls. - Colors are mostly red, yellow, and orange.
- Color will vary depending on how much sun is able
to be taken in. - The amount of sunlight depends on the seasons of
the year, or how far the planted area is from the
sun.
30Leucoplast
- Leucoplasts are non-pigmented plastids that are
used in plants for storage - There are three types
- Amyloplasts - colorless plant organelle related
to starch production storage - Aleuroplasts - colorless plant organelle related
to protein production storage - Elaioplasts - colorless plant organelle related
to oil lipid production storage
Amyloplasts
Ealioplasts
Aleuroplasts
31The Nucleus
- The nucleus is pretty much the HQ of the cell. It
controls cell processes by controlling the
proteins made. The instructions for making every
protein in the cell is found in DNA
(Deoxyribonucleic Acid) - RNA (Ribonucleic acid) is another nucleic acid
that is connected with cell processes.
32The Nuclear Envelope
- The nucleus envelope is the membrane that
surrounds the nucleus. - The small openings allow materials, like RNA and
proteins, to pass through the nuclear membrane.
33The Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
- Its several connected membranes
- The Rough ER makes proteins that are used in the
cell membrane and also outside the cell membrane - It is called rough because of the ribosomes
that are on its surface. These ribsomes send
amino acid chains to the rough ER. - After the rough ER finishes making the proteins,
it sends the proteins to the Golgi apparatus or
cell membrane in vesicles, or tiny bubble
transporters
34The Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
- Its several connected membranes
- The smooth ER has a more tubular structure than
the rough ER. - The job of the smooth ER is to make and store
lipids (ex.-steroids), and fatty acids.
35The Golgi Apparatus
- The Golgi apparatus is a stack of membranes that
get proteins from the ER and change them. - The Golgi Apparatus changes simple molecules into
more complex ones and also alters proteins. - It also assures that proteins dont have flaws or
unneeded materials.
36The Job of A Golgi Apparatus.
- Another task of the Golgi apparatus is to make
lysosomes (small enzymye-filled organelles that
break down carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins) - In plants, the Golgi apparatus can make complex
sugars. - After the molecules inside the Golgi apparatus
are ready for shipping, a vesicle is formed and
sent out of the cell through the cell membrane.
37Cytoskeleton
- Some cells have a cytoskeleton that helps the
cell keep its shape. - The cytoskeleton also helps with cell movement.
- The two essential structures in a cytoskeleton
are microfilaments and microtubules.
38More of the Cytoskeleton
- The cytoskeleton is connected to every part of
the cell membrane and every organelle. - Motor proteins that attach to organelles move
them along microfilaments and microtubules almost
like a train carrying cargo over tracks.
39Microfilaments
- Microfilaments are composed of a long, thin
protein called actin. - In muscle cells, actin and myosin (which are
called actomysoin when together), help contract
and relax the muscle cell (which in turn helps
muscles to relax or contract) - The pushing and pulling of microfilaments in the
cell membrane help the cell move.
40Microtubules
- Microtubules are thick, round, proteins called
tubulin. - They are important in cell division by attaching
to chromosomes and helping them split. - Microtubules can combine to form flagella (which
aid in cell movement) and cilia (which help
single-celled organisms move around) - They both help the cell move quickly in water.
