Active Transport

The net movement of particles from an area of low concentration to an area of higher concentration using energy.

1 of 18

Osmosis

The net diffusion of water from an area of higher concentration of water to an area of lower concentration of water across a partially permable membrane.

2 of 18

Diffusion

The net movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. This happens when you breathe, it happens in leaves of plants(photosynthesis.

3 of 18

Stem Cells

are the fertillisation of the female gamete by the male gamete the cell starts to divide by mitosis. As this stage the cells are undifferentiated.

4 of 18

Differentiation

Is the process by which an unspecialised early embryonic cell aquires the features of a specialised cell.

5 of 18

Undifferentiated

Cells have no specialised features. Stem cells are a type of undifferentiated cell.

6 of 18

Cell

Basic building blocks of all living organisms.

7 of 18

Tissue

Groups of cells with similar structure and functions.

8 of 18

Organ

Groups of tissues that perform a specific function.

9 of 18

Organ System

Groups of organs that perform a specific function.

10 of 18

Organism

Collective of organs that work together to perform a specific function.

Digestion

Digestion makes insolube substances into soluble ones. This process starts in the mouth. During digestion, digestive juices are added to the food. When the food that can be digested has been broken down, it is absorbed by the small intestine.

Biological Catalysts

These are made up of proteins and they speed up the rate of the reaction.

13 of 18

The Enzymatic Process

Substrate+Enzymes=Products

14 of 18

Carbohydrates

Carbohydrase-carbohydrates-sugars

15 of 18

Protein

Protease-protein-amino acids

16 of 18

Fat

Lipase-fats,lipids-fatty acids and glyterol

17 of 18

Rate

Rate is how much something changes over time.
