Cell_Notes

Cell Notes Section 2-1 Review 1. What observations were used to develop the cell theory' • German botanist, Schleiden – cells compose not only the stems and roots but every part of a plant • German zoologist, Schwann - made same claim about animals • German physician, Virchow – observed that cells come only from other cells 2. What function do organelles serve' • Eukaryotic cells possess organelles • Their small, specific membrane-bound internal compartments, that carry out specific functions in the cell. 3. Explain why cells must be small. • 2 limits that affect how efficiently cells work and that govern cell size. • One is related to the exchange between the inside and the outside of the cell. - All info and materials entering or leaving the cell must pass through “doors” in the cell membrane. The efficiency of this exchange depends on the ratio of cells, cell, organelles, materials, eukaryotes, eukaryotic, volume, theory, surface, specific, small, size, prokaryotes, organisms, must, membrane-bound, membrane, living, internal, function, explain, exchange, compartments, their, small, cells, bacteria
