eukaryotes

plant, animal, fungi or protist organisms (everything except bacteria)

pafp

prokaryotes

bacteria


single called organisms, are smaller and simpler

what do animal cells contain

nucleus, mitochondria, cytoplasm, cell membrane and ribosomes

what do plant cells contain

nucleus, mitochondria, cytoplasm, cell membrane, ribosomes, and rigid cell walls, permanent vacuoles, and chloroplasts

what can plant cells have that animal cells don't/can't

cell walls, permemant vacuoles and chloroplast

mitochondria

produce and transfer energy through aerobic respiration

cytoplasm

a gel like material in a cell, is where chemical reactions happen, contains enzymes

3 things, property property contains

cell membrane

holds cell together, controls what goes in and out

cell walls

supports cell and strengthens it, made of cellulose


plant cells only

ribosomes

where proteins are made in the cell

nucleus

controls generic material that controls the cells activities

permenant vacuole

contains cell sap which keeps cell rigid, needs water (to keep rigid) helps support plant


plant cells only

chloroplasts

contain green substance called chlorophyll that absorbs light, is where photosynthesis occurs


(some) plant cells only

which type of cells don't contain a nucleus

bacterial cells

what do (those prokaryotic) cells have instead of a nucleus

a single circular strand of DNA that floats around in the cytoplasm and DNA rings called plasmid

bacterial cells don't have

a nucleus, chloroplasts or mitochondria

light microscopes

less magnification than electron microscopes, used to see larger structures like nuclei or individual cells

electron microscopes

much higher magnefication than light microscopes and can see smaller structures

j

how many times bigger the image of a specific rn observed is in compared to the actual real life size of the specimen


(how big picture is compared to real size)


the zoom in lol

magnification (equation)

magnification= image size / real size


M= IS /RS

what is cell differentiation

cell differentiation is the process by which a cell changes to be specialised

what are stem cells

unspecialised cells

some examples of specialised cells are

muscle cells, intestinal cells, RBC, sperm cell and nerve cells are all __ cells

stem cells have two types? which are

adult and embryonic

embryonic cells are ?

stem cells, straight out the embryo and can specialise into any cell

adult stem cells

limited stem cells, can only be found in bone marrow and can only differentiate into blood cells

are x, found in y, differentiate into z

therapeutic cloning is

the duplicate cloning of stem cells to cure disease

differentiation happens in a process called?

MITOSIS

Mitosis is needed for

growing and repairing cells

cytokinesis

during differentiation, it's the process in which the cytoplasm separates and ensure 1 nucleus ends up in each daughter cell

genetic material is contained in the form of ?

chromosomes, coiled into lengths of DNA molecules

Mitosis is? (definition

when multicellular (eukaryotic eg. plant and animal) organisms grow or replicate cells

what is binary fission what happens in binary

its how prokaryotic cells reproduce, through a type of division

what happens in binary fission how

similar to the cell cycle but they divide into two separate unicellular organisms

how many stages of the cell cycle are ther

4

what are the stages of the cell cycle IN ORDER

Growth, DNA replication, mitosis and cytokinesis

what is the first stage of the cell cycle and what happens in it

growth- cell grows to contain more cell structures and space for next stages

what is the second stage of the cell cycle and what happens in it

DNA duplication- DNA condenses, then duplicates but states attached in an X shape

what is the third stage of the cell cycle and what happens in it

mitosis- chromosomes line up in the middle, then are pulled to each opposite end of the cell, breaking chromosomes in half

what is the fourth stage of the cell cycle and what happens in it

cytokinesis- the division stage, a nucleus for each group of chromosomes before cytoplasm divide forming two identical daughter cells

Osmosis is?

the movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane from an area of high water converntration to an area of low water concentration

What does moving down a concentration a gradient mean

when something moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration (waterfall)

waterfall

diffusion is

the spreading out of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration

things that effect the rate of diffusion

the bigger the concentration gradient, the faster the diffusion rate


a higher temperature gives faster diffusion rate because a higher temperature= more energy= faster movement


the larger the surface area of the membrane, the faster the rate of diffusion because more particles pass through at once

3 things

osmosis vs diffusion ? difference between them

osmosis talks about the movement of water through a partially permeable membrane, diffusion had no membrane and it can be about gases or solutions

net movement

just the total number of water molecules moving

in an osmosis experiment, let's say the water has a lower concentration of water than the potato, does it increase or decrease in mass

it decreases because the water moves from an area of high to low concentration, so from the potato to outside

in an osmosis experiment, let's say the water has a higher concentration of water than the potato, does it increase or decrease in mass

the mass increases because the water had a higher concentration than the potato and water moves from an area of higher to lower concentration

active transport (definition and difference)

the movement of whatever from an area of low concentration to high concentration against the concentration gradient


difference is that it requires energy from respiration and moves against concentration gradient

an example of active transport

in root hair cells in plants, where the concentration of minerals in the plant is higher then the soil around them, so they take it through active transport
