  1. 1NucleusControls the cells activities
  2. 2CytoplasmWhere chemical reactions take place
  3. 3Cell MembraneControls the movement of what goes in and out of the cell
  4. 4MitochondriaReleases energy during aerobic respiration
  5. 5RibosomesWhere protein synthesis takes place
  6. 6Cell WallMade of cellulose for support
  7. 7ChloroplastsContains chlorophyll for photosynthesis. Absorbs light energy
  8. 8Bacteria are much .... than animal and plant cellsSmaller
  9. 9Yeast is aSingle-celled organism
  10. 10Parts of a bacteria cellCell Membrane, Cell Wall, Cytoplasm, Slime Capsule, Plasmids, Flagella, Genetic Material
  11. 11Bacteria don't have a .... so ....Nucleus so the genetic material is in the cytoplasm
  12. 12When bacteria multiply they form a ....Colony
  13. 13What are specialised cells?They are cells that have a different structure that is linked to its function
  14. 14Example of a cell with lots of mitochondriaMuscle cell, sperm cell
  15. 15Example of cells that have lots of ribosomes (to make lots of protein)Gland cells which produce enzymes
  16. 16Example of a cell with a tail to moveSperm cell
  17. 17Example of a receptor cell to detect stimuliCone cells in the eye
  18. 18Neurons are specialised to carry impulses from .... to the ....Receptors to the CNS (central nervous system)
  19. 19Example of a cell with many chloroplastsMesophyll cells of a leaf
  20. 20Root hair cells increase the surface area of the root so...It can absorb water and mineral ions efficiently
  21. 21Why does a muscle cell have lots of Mitochondria?Muscles need energy for movement
  22. 22What is diffusion?Diffusion is the spreading out of particles from a high concentration to a low concentration of a gas or particles in solution
  23. 23The difference in concentration of particles between two areas is calledConcentration gradient
  24. 24What determines the net movement of particles across a cell membrane?The concentration of particles on each side of the cell membrane
  25. 25Example of diffusion:Diffusion of oxygen from the bloodstream to the cells during respiration.
    Diffusion of carbon dioxide int photosynthesising cells.
    Diffusion of simple sugars and amino acids from the gut through cell membranes.
  26. 26Tissue is a group of cells with similar ...Structure and function
  27. 27Organs are made up of several types of tissueCell -> Tissue -> Organ System -> Whole Body
  28. 28(Animal) Muscle TissueCan contract and bring about movement
  29. 29(Animal) Glandular TissueProduces substances such as enzymes or hormones
  30. 30(Animal) Epithelial TissueCovers some parts of the body
  31. 31(Plant) MesophyllCan photosynthsise
  32. 32(Plant) Xylem and PhloemTransports substances around the plant
  33. 33(Plant) Epidermal TissueCovers the plant
  34. 34What tissue is the stomach organ made out of?Muscular tissue to churn the stomach contents.
    Glandular tissue to produce digestive juices.
    Epithelial tissue to cover the outside and inside of the stomach.
  35. 35During the development of multicellular organisms the cells ...Differentiate
  36. 36the food you eat must be changed from insoluble molecules to...Soluble molecules
  37. 37The soluble food molecules are absorbed into the...Blood
  38. 38The digestive system is adapted to...Exchange substances with the envrionment
  39. 39Plant organs include:Stem, leafs and roots
  40. 40The digestive system includes:Glands (pancreas, salivary glands to produce digestive juices).
    The stomach and small intestine.
    The liver which produces bile.
    The small intestine where soluble food is absorbed.
    The large intestine where water from undigested food is absorbed.
  41. 41What structures are found in both animal and plant cells?Nucleus
    Cell Membrane
    Cytoplasm
    Mitochondria
    Ribosomes
  42. 42What three features are found in a plant/algal cell but not an animal cell?Chloroplast
    Cell Wall
    Vacuole
  43. 43Where do most chemical reactions take place in a cell?Cytoplasm
  44. 44What organs are in the human digestive system?Glands
    Stomach
    Small Intestine
    Large Intestine
    Liver to produce bile
  45. 45What chemical produced by the liver aids digestion?Bile
  46. 46What are two differences between a plant leaf cell and a yeast cell?Leaf cell has chloroplast and a cell wall and a yeast cell doesn't.
  47. 47What is meant by the term 'differentiation of cells'?When cells change to from particular cells with different functions.
  48. 48How is a leaf adapted to carry out photosynthesis?It has mesophyll tissue with lots of chloroplast which absorbs light
  49. 49What happens, in detail, to food as it passes through the digestive system?It is mixed with digestive juices produced by the glands where it is then digested in the stomach and small intestine. Bile is added by the liver to aid the digestion. Absorption of the soluble food then takes place in the small intestine where the water from insoluble food in absorbed by the large intestine producing faeces.
