Cell Structure: Animal Cells

Animal cells have a cell membrane that separates them from surroundings.
They contain cytoplasm, a gel-like liquid where chemical reactions occur.
The nucleus contains the genetic material (DNA).
Mitochondria are the site of aerobic respiration, releasing energy.
Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis.

Cell Structure: Plant Cells

Plant cells have all animal cell structures: cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, mitochondria, ribosomes.
Additionally, they have a cellulose cell wall for structural support.
Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and absorb light energy for photosynthesis.
A permanent vacuole stores cell sap and provides support.

Bacterial Cells (Prokaryotes)

Bacteria have a cell wall made of peptidoglycan (not cellulose).
They have a cell membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes.
DNA is circular and not enclosed in a nucleus; some have plasmids.
Bacteria lack internal membranes: no nucleus, mitochondria, or chloroplasts.

Functions of Cellular Structures

Cell membrane: controls passage of substances into/out of the cell.
Nucleus: contains DNA, controls cell activities (animal/plant only).
Mitochondria: site of aerobic respiration (animal/plant).
Ribosomes: protein synthesis (all cell types).
Chloroplasts: photosynthesis (plant only).
Cell wall: provides support and shape (cellulose in plants, peptidoglycan in bacteria).
Permanent vacuole: storage and support (plant only).
Plasmids: small DNA loops carrying extra genes (bacteria).

Specialised Cells

Cells differentiate (become specialised) to carry out specific functions in the body.
Root hair cell: has a long extension (root hair) that increases surface area for absorption of water and mineral ions; thin walls let water move through quickly; no chloroplasts (underground, no light).
Xylem vessel: dead cells with no top/bottom walls, forming a continuous tube for water transport; walls thickened with lignin for support.
Palisade mesophyll cell: column-shaped to pack many cells under the leaf's upper surface and contains many chloroplasts for maximum photosynthesis.

Root hair cell

Organisation of Cells

Cells divide to produce new cells for growth and repair.
Cells can become specialised to carry out specific functions.
Levels of organisation: cells → tissues → organs → organ systems → organism.
Examples: palisade mesophyll cells form leaf tissue; leaf is an organ.

Levels of organisation

Magnification Formula

Formula: magnification = image size ÷ actual size.
Equation triangle: M = I / A; I = M × A; A = I / M.
Units must be the same (e.g., both in mm or both in μm).
Magnification has no units (e.g., ×10, ×3000).

Magnification equation triangle

Converting Between Units

1 mm = 1000 μm (micrometres).
To convert μm to mm, divide by 1000; to convert mm to μm, multiply by 1000.
Common error: forgetting to convert units before using magnification formula.
