What does a human cheek cell consist of?

What does a moss leaf cell consist of?
Chloroplasts, nucleus, cytoplasm, vacuole membrane, cell wall, plasma membrane, sap in vacuole
2 of 11
Give examples of two unicellular organisms.
Amoeba & Chlorella
3 of 11
What must unicellular organisms do?
Carry out all of the life functions; metabolism, response, homeostasis, growth, reproduction and nutrition.

What is differentiation?
When cells can specialise in different functions/ develop in various ways. This happens in multicellular organisms.

What does it mean for an organism to have emergent properties?

What is extracellular material and where is it found in the largest quantities?
It is material that exists outside of the cell membrane and is found in large amounts in tissues (e.g. bone).
