    • cells
      • plant cells
        • 1- nucleus      2- cytoplasm 3-cell membrane           4-mitrochondria 5-Ribosomes     6-rigid cell wall              7-permanent vacuole           8-ribosomes
      • animal cells
        • 1- nucleus      2- cytoplasm 3-cell membrane           4-mitrochondria 5-Ribosomes
      • bacteria cells
        • 1-cell membrane        2-cytoplasm   3-cell wall       4-plasmids
    • microscopy
      • magnification=image size / real size
      • standard form= a number between 1 and 10 x 10 to a power
    • cell differentiation and specialisation
      • cells differentiate to become specialised
        • sperm cells are specialised for reproduction
        • nerve cels are specialised for rapid signalling
        • muscle cells are specialised for contraction
        • root hair cells are specialised for absorbing water and minerals
        • phloem and xylem cells are specialised for transporting substances
    • chromosomes and mitosis
      • chromosome contain specialist genetic information
      • cell cycle;       1-growth & DNA replication         2-mitosis
    • stem cells
      • embryonic stem cells can turn into any type of cell
      • stem cells may be able to cure many diseases
      • stem cells can produce identical plants
    • diffusion
      • diffusion= the spreading out of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
    • exchange surfaces
      • surface area= length x width
      • cells can use diffusion to take in substances they need and get rid of waste products.
    • active transport
      • root hairs take in minerals and water using active transport
    • exchanging substances
      • gas exchange happens in the lungs
        • the job of the lungs is to transfer oxygen to the blood and to remove waste carbon dioxide
      • the villi provide a really large surface area
    • osmosis
      • osmosis= the movement of water molecules across a partiallypermeable membrane from a region of higher water concentration to a region of lower water concentration
