Cellular Organization of Plants and Animals                 

  • Those organisms which are made of large number of cell are called multi-cellular organisms.
  • Those organisms which are made of only one cell are called unicellular organisms.
  • Unicellular organisms are amoeba, paramecium, euglena, chlamydomonas.
  • Cell--------> Tissue------->Organ--------->System--------->Organism
  • Microscope is an instrument which helps to see those things that cannot see with our naked eyes.
  • “Micro” means small and “scope” means to see.
  • 1) Eyepiece (ocular): where you look through to see the image
  • 2) Body tube: Holds the eyepiece and connects it down to the objectives
  • 3) Fine adjustment knob: Moves the body of the microscope up/down more slowly; fine control. Gets the specimen exactly focused. We only use this after we first use the coarse adjustment knob.
  • 4) Nosepiece:  Rotating piece at the bottom of the body tube. Let’s us choose between several lenses (objectives.)
  • 5) High power objective: Used for high power magnification (the longer objective lens)
  • 6) Low power objective:  Used for low power magnification
  • 7) Diaphragm: Controls amount of light going through the specimen
  • 8) Light/mirror: Source of light, usually found near the base of the microscope.
  • 9) Base: Supports the microscope
  • 10) Coarse adjustment knob: Moves body of the microscope up/down more quickly; Gets specimen approximately focused.
  • 11) Arm: Holds main part of the microscope to the base.
  • 12) Stage clips: Hold the slide in place.
  • 13) Inclination joint: Use to tilt the microscope.
  • A cell is the unit of structure and function of a living organism.
  • First main Difference between animals and plants cell is that the outer most covering in plant cell is cell wall.
  • The second one is cell membrane is present under the cell wall in plants. But it is the outer most covering of the animal cell.
  • Cytoplasm (خلیہ مائع) is a thick viscous (گاڑھا) liquid which fills the space between the nucleus and the cell membrane.
  • Centrioles: Animal cells contain organelles known as centrioles, which are not present in plant cells. Centrioles help move chromosomes during cell division.
  • Vacuole is a sac (تھیلی) like structure which store waste material for some time before removal from the body.
  • Vacuole: Animal cells may have many tiny vacuoles.
  • A plant cell usually has a single large vacuole, which serves as a storage tank for food, water, waste products, and other materials.
  • Nucleus is the most important part of the cell. It controls all activities of the cell.
  • Plant cell has chloroplast which has green pigment called chlorophyll (پودوں اور پتوں کو سبز رنگ دینے والا مادہ).  It helps plants to prepare its own food.
  • The largest cell is the egg of an Ostrich.
  • Many organs when work together makes a system.
  • Mouth, stomach, small intestine, liver etc. work together to make digestive system.
  • Heart, vessels called veins and arteries make circulatory system.
  • Nose, windpipe and lungs make respiratory system (نظام تنفس).
  • Removal of wastes from the body and nervous system (اعصابی نظام) for overall control of the body is called excretory system (نظام اخراج).
  • Nervous system is made up of brain, spinal cord and nerves.
  • Difference between animal and plant cell.
