What are bacterial cells like? | A bacterial cells consists of cytoplasm and a membrane surrounded by a cell wall. The genes are not in a distinct nucleus. |
How are yeast cells different form bacterial, plant and animal cells? | Yeast cells are single-celled organisms; furthermore the yeast cells are not living organisms. |
Specialised Cells | Cells that carry out a particular function. |
Examples of specialised cells | Fat Cells, Cone cells, root hair cells and sperm cells |
Diffusion | The net movement of particles of a gas or a solute from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. |
What affects the rate of diffusion? | The greater the difference in concentration, the faster the rate of diffusion. |
What is a Tissue? | A tissue is a group of cells with similar structure and function. |
What is an organ? | Organs are made of tissues. One organ may contain several types of tissue. |
What are group systems? | Organ systems are groups of organs that perform a particular function. |
What organs form the digestive system? | The stomach and the small intestine. |
