Basic Cell Biology

Classification of diversity of life
1. Domains
  1. The highest classification of life are separated in domains
  2. Bacteria Prokaryotes
  3. Archie Prokaryotes
  4. Eukara Eukaryotes
  5. Kingdoms
    1. Plantae
    2. Fungi
    3. Animalia
    4. Protist (single cells)
    5. Another branch to the classification
2. Forms of life are highly diverse
3. Remarkable unity
4. evident at the cellar and genetic level
Evolution of cells
1. The endosymbiont theory of cell evolution (eurkarotic) cells
  1. Theory that basic cells evolved by engulfing oxygen using non photosynthetic cells forming mitochondria in animal cells
  2. Chloroplast are the result of early cell ancestors of eurkyotvc cells engulfing photosynthetic cells
  3. Over the course of evolution the cells merged together into a single organism
Basic Cell structures
1. Animal Cells
  1. Nucleus
  2. endoplasm
  3. cytoskeleton
  4. microvilli
  5. mitochondria
  6. golgi
  7. ribosomes
  8. Plasma Membrane
2. plant cells
  1. nucleus
  2. rough endoplasm
  3. smooth endoplasm
  4. mitochondria
