Answer C [This object is a pull tab] Slide 10 / 143 Slide 11 / 143 Cell Size Surface Area to Volume Ratio Eukaryotic cells are, on average, much larger than prokaryotic cells. The average diameter of most prokaryotic cells is between At the time when prokaryotic cells were evolving, there were most likely 1 and 10 µm. By contrast, most eukaryotic cells are between 5 to different sizes of cells. A cell's efficiency and ability to survive depended 100 µm in diameter. on its surface area to volume ratio . Animal Cell (Eukaryote) The volume of the cell determines the amount of chemical activity it can carry out per unit time. The surface area of the cell determines the amount of substances the cell can take in from the environment and the amount of waste it can release. Bacterium (Prokaryote) As a cell grows in size, it's surface area to volume ratio decreases. It performs chemical reactions faster, but it has a harder time getting nutrients in and waste out.
Slide 12 / 143 Slide 13 / 143 Limits of Cell Size Organelles We know that cells need to be small enough so that they have To increase efficiency in the an increased surface area to volume ratio, but be large enough to larger cell, eukaryotes perform the chemical reactions of metabolism. evolved many bacterium-sized parts known as organelles . Least Efficient Most Efficient Organelles subdivide the cell into specialized compartments. They play many important roles in the cell. Some transport waste to The smaller the cell, the larger The bigger the cell, the smaller the cell membrane. Others keep the molecules required for specific its surface area and the smaller the surface area is compared chemical reactions located within a certain compartment so they do not its volume. to its large volume inside. need to diffuse long distances to be useful. Slide 14 / 143 Slide 15 / 143 Organelles Multicellular Organisms Organelles making up Eukaryotic cells include: Even with organelles, the size of the cell is limited to about 1000 µm 3 . · Nucleus · Vacuoles This is why large organisms must consist of many smaller cells. · Lysosomes · Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum · Ribosomes · Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum · Peroxisomes · Chloroplasts · Mitochondria · Golgi Apparatus Slide 16 / 143 Slide 17 / 143 2 Which of the following are prokaryotic cells? Diversity of Eukaryotes A Plants Protists: The first eukaryotic cells. Protists are B Fungi single-celled eukaryotes. They range from protozoans to algae. C Bacteria D Animals Fungi: These organisms evolved second in time along with plants. Examples include mushrooms, molds, and mildews. Plants: Plants vary in type from the first plants called mosses to the modern flowering plants. Animals : Animals were the last eukaryotes to evolve. Animals range from ancient sponges and hydra to primates.

Slide 21 / 143 Slide 22 / 143 The Biological Nucleus The Nucleus The nucleus from chemistry with protons and neutrons is not the The defining organelle in eukaryotic cell is the nucleus . The same nucleus involved with cells. nucleus of the cell contains the DNA and controls the cell's activities by directing protein synthesis from DNA. Biological Nucleus prokaryotes : pro: before karyon: kernel/seed (nucleus) The biological nucleus is usually, but not always, in the center of a eukaryote : eu: true cell and it is sometimes referred to as the "control center" of the cell. karyon: kernel/seed (nucleus) So prokaryote = "before a nucleus" And eukaryote = "true nucleus" Slide 23 / 143 Slide 24 / 143 3 Main Functions of the Nucleus Inside the Nucleus The nucleus is enclosed by a double cell membrane structure called the 1. To keep and contain a safe copy of all chromosomes (DNA) nuclear envelope. and pass them on to daughter cells in cell division. The nuclear envelope has many 2. To assemble ribosomes (specifically in the nucleolus). openings called nuclear pores. Nuclear pores help the nucleus 3. To copy DNA instructions into RNA (via transcription). "communicate" with other parts of the cell. Inside the nucleus is a dense region known as the nucleolus . The nucleolus is where rRNA is made and ribosomes are assembled. They then exit through the nuclear pores.

Every cell has all the genes necessary to make all parts of the organism. Cells become specialized by only expressing (turning on) certain genes, a small fraction of all the genes in the genome. Transcription and translation occur in Eukaryotes the same as in Prokaryotes, Transcription but there are extra steps that help regulate expression. These muscle cells and brain cells (neurons) have the same DNA but they are expressing different genes, that is why their structure and function are so different.
