Frage Antworten
In which part of the cell is energy released during respiration? Mitochondria
Why is it possible to see a bacterial colony but not a single bacterium? One bacterium is very tiny. Many bacteria massed together in a colony can be seen
Why do muscles cells need a lot of mitochondria? Mitochondria release energy which muscles need for movement
What determines the net movement of particles across a cell membrane? The concentration on either side of the membrane
What does glandular tissue produce? Enzymes or hormones
Where is soluble food absorbed? In the small intestine
List the structures which are found in both animal and plant cells Cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, mitochondria, ribosomes
Give three features of a plant or algal cell which are not found in animal cells Cell wall, chloroplasts, permanent vacuole filled with sap
Where do most chemical reactions take place in a cell? In the cytoplasm
Name three organs in the human digestive system Three of: Salivary gland, pancreas, stomach, liver, small intestine, large intestine
What chemical produced by the liver aids digestion? Bile
Give two differences between a plant leaf cell and a yeast cell Leaf cells have chloroplasts and a cellulose cell wall Yeast does not have chloroplasts and no cellulose in it's wall
When, and in which direction, will diffusion take place in solutions and in gases? If two solutions are separated by a cell membrane, particles will move from a region of low concentration . Gases will also diffuse through the air from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration
What is meant by the term differentiation of cells? When cells start to divide they are very similar. As the tissues develop the cells change to form particular cells with particular functions
How is a leaf cell adapted to carry out photosynthesis? The leaf has mesophyll tissue. The mesophyll cells contain chloroplasts which can photosynthesise
Describe in detail what happens to food as it passes through the digestive system Food is mixed with digestive juices produced by glands. It's digested in the stomach and the small intestine. Bile produced by the liver is added to the food to help digestion. Absorption of the soluble food takes place in the small intestine. Water is absorbed by the large intestine
