B1-B9 Flashcards
name the 8 cell parts and there functions
cell membrane - protects cell controls what goes in nd out ๐ถ
cytoplasm - fluid fills the cell (where chemical reaction) ๐ถ๐ณ
vacuole - cell storage ๐ณ
mitochondria - produces energy (respiration)๐ถ๐ณ
nucleus - controls the cell , has the dna ๐ถ๐ณ
cell wall - supports the cell ๐ณ
ribosomes - decode the message ๐ถ๐ณ
chloroplast - for photosynthesis ๐ณ
calculation for magnification :
Measure the scale bar image (beside drawing) in mm.
Convert to ยตm (multiply by 1000).
prokaryotic
eukaryotic cells :
prokaryotic = bacteria
eukaryotic = animal plant and fungi
differences E is much bigger
P has no nucleus
P = only 1 chromsome
Diffusion ?
Osmosis ?
Active transport ?
Diffusion = movement from high to low
Osmosis = pass through semi permable membrane from a less concentrated to more
Active transport = ions across a cell membrane from a low to high
cell cycle / mitosis
mitosis = cell duplication
cell cycle = The cell then leaves interphase, undergoes mitosis, and completes its division.
stem cells ?
stem cells = cells produced by bone marrow , can turn into different blood cells
therapeutic cloning
advantaged
disadvantages
advantages = could treat/cure diseases
disadvantages = could cause tumours , ethics + alot of eggs are needed
3 common features of exchange surfaces in animals :
used to increase their surface area to maximise the rate of diffusion.
lungs
small intestines
3 tissues in the stomach and their jobs
mucosa - glands that release digestive juices
serosa - wraps around to confine
submucosa - rich in blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves.
which enzymes are present in the digestive system ?
speeds up chemical reaction
Amylase
Pepsin
Trypsin
stomach acids and bile assists with digestion ?
breaks down fats into fatty acids + promote absorption of lipids
artificial heart , stent and heart valve replacements
advantages : prevent the development of blood clots)
however their relatively poor durability compared to mechanical valves, with many requiring a re-operation in 10 to 20 years
process of breathing in and out
lungs exhale - the diaphragm relaxes, and the volume of the thoracic cavity decreases, while the pressure within it increases. As a result, the lungs contract and air is forced out.
how does the heart pump blood ?
from its left side, through the aorta (main artery leaving the heart) and into the arteries , travels through your arteries, which divide off into smaller and smaller blood vessels called capillaries.
Stents :
Stents are small, expandable tubes that treat narrowed arteries in your body
