Organelles in an animal cell
Mitochondria, nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, ribosomes.
1 of 26
Organelles in a plant cell
Mitochondria, nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, cell wall, ribosomes, chloroplasts, permanent vacuole.
2 of 26
Function of membrane
Allows oxygen, carbon dioxide, water, glucose to exit/ enter cell; a barrier between cell and surroundings.
3 of 26
Function of cell wall
Stops cells bursting, gives cells their shape.
4 of 26
Function of chloroplasts
Photosynthesis, contains chlorophyll, stores starch.
5 of 26
Function of cytoplasm
Respiration, making proteins.
6 of 26
Function of permanent vacuole
Full of water to maintain shape and firmness, stores salt and sugars.
7 of 26
Function of nucelus
Controls all cell activities, contains DNA.
8 of 26
Function of mitochondria
Where energy is released during respiration.
9 of 26
Function of ribosomes
Where proteins are made.

11 of 26
Organelles in a bacteria cell
Slime capsule, cell wall, cell membrane,flagella, plasmids, cytoplasm, genetic material
12 of 26
Organelles in a yeast cell
Vacuole, food storage granule, cytoplasm, cell wall, cell membrane, nucleus.
13 of 26
Specialised cell is...
a cell adapted to do a specific function.
14 of 26
Adaptions of a fat cell
Small amount of cytoplasm, large amount of fat, few mitochondria, can expand up to 1000x its original size.
15 of 26
Adaptions of a human cone cell
Visual pigment, lots of mitochondria, synapses.
16 of 26
Adaptions of root hair cell
Root hair to increase surface area, large permanent vacuole to speed osmosis.
17 of 26
Adaptions of sperm cell
Tail to move, full of mitochondria, acrosome, large nucleus.
18 of 26
Diffusion
The net movement of particles from an area of high to low concentration.
19 of 26
Osmosis
The diffusion of water from a dilute to more concentrated solution through a partially permeable membrane.
20 of 26
Hypertonic
Has a higher concentration of solutes outside than in (shrivels up)
21 of 26
Isotonic
Same concentration of solutes outside and in. (just right for animal cells)
22 of 26
Hypotonic
Has a higher concentration inside the cell than out (good for plant cells, animal cells burst)
23 of 26
Active transport
The movement of substances against a concentration gradient and/or across a cell membrane, USING ENERGY.
24 of 26
Adaptions for exchanging materials
Large surface area (villi in the small intestine, root hair), thin short diffusion path, large blood supply, ventilated (alveoli)
25 of 26
How do food molecuels reach cells from the small intestine?
Active transport and diffusion
