Biology 2.4
Cellular Life Processes
2
Bio 2.4 Cell BitsBiological ideas, as they relate to each of the life processes at the cellular level, are
selected from:
• reasons for similarities and differences between cells such as cell size and shape,
•type and number of organelles present.
Limited to plant and animal cells

5
Cell wallA rigid structure made of cellulose
surrounding plant cells. This provides shape and strength.
6
Cell membranePlant cell
Animal cell
A layer that encloses the cell contents.
Controls what enters and exits the cell.
7
Cell membraneIs made of two
layers of lipid (fat) molecules with proteins for cell identification, active transport and communication.
8
Cytoplasmfills the interior of the cell. It
consists of a liquid (called the cytosol that contains water, proteins and dissolved ions) and cell organelles.
It is used to transport substances throughout the cell and create internal pressure and is where most chemical reactions occur.
9
NucleusContains the
genetic material which controls the cells activities.
nucleoplasm
Nucleolus: round structure inside nucleus: produces the ribosomal RNA
10
Nuclear membrane
Separates the contents of the nucleus from the cytoplasm. Perforated by pores and continuous with ER.
11
ChromosomesStructures
made of DNA and protein containing genes for protein synthesis.
12
MitochondriaOrganelles
within the cytoplasm for cell respiration - where food molecules are broken down to release energy.
13
Chloroplast
Organelles in plant cells containing chlorophyll for photosynthesis.
Starch granule
StromaGrana
Membrane
14
Centriole
Centrioles
Mostly present in animal cells for cell division.
Produces spindle fibres for separating chromosomes.
15
Vacuole Liquid-filled
organelle in cytoplasm for creating pressure and storing water and dissolved substances.
16
RibosomeOrganelle found
free in the cytoplasm or attached to ER.
Used for protein synthesis.

17
Endoplasmic reticulumIs a system of membranes and
connecting tubes that provide a surface for chemical reactions and a pathway for moving material within the cell.
Rough ER
Smooth ER
RER vs SER• RER
– Produces proteins (both secreted & part of cell membrane)
• SER– Produces lipids, steroids– Metabolises carbohydrates– Regulates calcium levels
18
19
LysosomeMembrane-bound sac containing
digestive enzymes.
Breaks down food and worn out cell parts.
20
Golgi bodya series of membrane-bound sacs
for producing and releasing secretions.

23
Plant Cellshave:
- rigid cell walls giving the plant cells a geometric shape;
- chloroplasts (usually);
- starch granules
- large central vacuole
They are usually larger than animal cells.
24
Become specialised to perform support, absorption of water, conduct liquids, allow gases in and out, manufacture food, form protective surfaces and reproduction.

27
Animal Cells
don’t have a cell wall and have centrioles and an irregular shape. Become specialised to perform specific tasks. Humans have over 200 different kinds of cells.

Similarities and differences
31
Cell size
32
33
Cell size is limited by the rate at which essential nutrients and oxygen can diffuse into a cell and waste products can be removed.
34
Cell shapeis determined by the role of the
cell.Nerve cells are long and thin to
conduct neural messages around the body.
Intestinal cells have frilly edges to increase surface area for rapid diffusion.
35
Egg cells are spherical and large to contain organelles and nutrients for the zygote.
Sperm cells have a long flagellum and many mitochondria for fast movement.
36
RBC’s are disc-shaped with rounded edges for easy passage through blood vessels.
Many cells are flat to increase the surface area, reduce travelling distance and increase diffusion rates
37
Relative numbers of organelles present
Secretory cells (e.g. glands) have large numbers of golgi bodies.
Highly active cells (e.g. muscle) have larger numbers of mitochondria.
38
Leaf cells contain large numbers of chloroplasts.
Root cells have a large surface area for efficient water absorption.
