What 3 things do plant cells have that animal cells don't?
Cell wall, Permanent vacuole, chloroplasts.
1 of 10
What is diffusion?
Diffusion is the net movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
2 of 10
How is a palisade leaf cell adapted for photosynthesis?
A) lots of chloroplasts at the top - nearer the light. B) tall so large surface area for absorbing CO2. C) thin shape means more can be packed in at the top.
3 of 10
Where is the genetic material found in: a) bacterial cells & b) animal cells?
a) Floats in the cytoplasm & b) Nucleus
4 of 10
How is a sperm cell adapted to swimming to an egg cell?
- Long tail to swim -Middle section full of mitochondria for energy -Acrosome provides digestive enzymes to break down the layers of the egg.
5 of 10
a)What is a Tissue? & b) What is an Organ?
a) A group of similar cells that work together to carry out a particular function. b) a group of different tissues that work together to perform a certain function.
6 of 10
Give 5 environmental factors that can affect the distribution of organisms
Temperature, Amount of Light and availability of: Water, O2 + CO2, nutrients.
7 of 10
What 3 substances can diffuse through cell membranes? & 2 that cannot!
CAN : oxygen, glucose + amino acids. CANNOT: starch + proteins.
8 of 10
Why is Glucose turned into starch when plants need to store it for later?
Because Glucose is soluble in water and could affect the way water moves into and out of the cells. Whereas Starch is insoluble in water.
9 of 10
What do YEAST cells consist of?
Nucleus, Cell Wall, Cytoplasm, Cell membrane.
