  • B1 Cells
    • Types of cells
      • eukaryotic
        • cell membrane
        • cytoplasm
        • nucleus
      • prokaryotic
        • bacteria (single celled)
          • cell membrane
          • no nucleus - long circle of DNA, or rings of DNA called plasmids
          • cytoplasm
          • cell wall (not made of cellulose)
          • some have a protective lime capsule
          • some have flagella - for movement
          • when they multiply they form colonies
      • specialisation
        • nerve
        • muscle
        • sperm
        • root hair
        • xylem (dead)
        • phloem (alive)
    • Cells
      • animal cells
        • nucleus - controls cell activities
        • cytoplasm - liquid gel, chemical reactions occur
        • cell membrane - what goes in and out
        • mitochondria - energy is transferred
        • ribosomes - protein synthesis
      • plant cell
        • has animal structures
        • cell wall - rigid, made of cellulose
        • chloroplasts - contain chlorophyll, photosynthesis
        • permanent vacuole- contains cell sap, keeps cell rigid and supports cell
    • Microscopes
      • light
        • uses beam of light
        • magnification : up to 2000x
        • used to veiw living objects
        • cheap and easy to carry aroud
        • resolving power :200nm
      • electron
        • uses beam of electrons
        • magnification : 2000000x
        • can't be used on living things
        • very expensive, needs to be kept in special conditions
        • resolving power : 0.2nm
    • Calculations
      • magnification : size of image/size of real object
      • units
        • 1km = 1000m
        • 1m = 100cm
        • 1cm = 10mm
        • 1mm = 1000micrometres
        • 1 micrometre = 100 nm
      • order of magnitude :using powers of 10
    • types of particle movement
      • Active Transport
        • diffusion of particles across a semi-permeable membrane,  with an overall net movement of low to high concentration
        • requires energy
      • Diffusion
        • spreading of particles in a substance with an overall net movement of high to low concentration
        • higher temp the faster rate of diffusion
      • Osmosis
        • diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane,  with an overall net movement of high to low concentration
