25
what are the 3 types of transporting substances
1. diffusion 2. osmosis 3. active transport
26
what is diffusion?
transportation of molecules/ particles spreading out from a high concentration to a low concentration
27
what's osmosis
going from a high concentration to a low concentration through a semi permeable membrane
28
what is active transport
particles transporting from a low concentration to a high concentration
29
what practical is used for osmosis
potato osmosis
30
how many phases are there in mitosis
6
31
whats the letters for mitosis
IPMATC
32
what are the stages of mitosis
Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis
33
what is the other part of the cell cycle that isn't mitosis
growth + DNA replication
34
what happens in prophase?
membrane around nucleus breaks down and spindle fibres form
35
what happens in anaphase
chromosomes split and are moved onto each end of cell on spindle fibres
36
what happens in metaphase
chromosomes line up across middle of the spindle fibres
37
what happens in telophase ?
membrane forms around each set of chromosomes to form a nuclei
38
what happens in interphase?
DNA spreads out in long strings, DNA is copied and subcellular structures are produced
39
what happens in cytokinesis/
cytoplasm and cell membrane divide separating cells and cell wall forms in plant cells
40
what type of cell does mitosis make?
diploid
41
what are chromosomes
coiled up DNA molecules
42
what is mitosis used for?
to grow/replaces damaged daughter cells
43
how many chromosomes does a diploid cell have?
23
44
how many chromosomes does a haploid cell have?
46
45
what's the formula for cellular respiration
carbon dioxide + water -----> oxygen + glucose
46
what is variation
we see it due to different plant types and different arrangements of cells
47
what's adaptation
ability to do a specific function
48
what's elongation ?
when cell wall loosens links between cellulose molecules and water enters causing expansion of vacuole + cytoplasm. Afterwards links reform between cellulose molecules and cell wall becomes rigid again
49
what's the formula for %change in growth
final value - initial value divided by initial value multiplied by 100
50
what's the root hair cells function?
absorb minerals and water from soil
51
whats the palisade cells function?
carry out photosynthesis making food
52
what's the xylem cells function
moving water
53
what is the meristem cells function?
to make itself into any other type of cell, its found in areas where growth takes place
54
what are the three stem cells
embryonic adult meristem
55
what is the difference between an adult stem cell and an embryonic stem cell?
an adult stem cell can only differentiate to become a limited range of cells while an embryonic stem cell can become any cell.
56
what does a meristem do?
change into any cell within a plant
57
what's the order from stimulus to response?
stimulus receptor sensory neurone CNS motor neurone effector response
58
what is the CNS
Central Nervous System - a co-ordination centre that recieves from receptors and then co-ordinates a response carried out by the effectors
59
what are the effectors?
cells that respond to nervous impulses and bring out a change
60
what are sensory neurones
neurones that carry information as electrical impulses
61
what is stimuli
a change in environment
62
what's motor neurones
a neurone that carry electrical impulses from CNS to effectors
63
what do neurones contain
axon axon terminals myelin sheath schwann cell dendrites dendrite nucleus cell body
64
axon terminals do what
converse electrical signals into chemical signal
65
what does the schwann cell do
surrounds neurones and keeps them alive and covers them with myelin sheath
66
myelin sheath does what
its a sleeve that wraps around each nerve cell providing protection
67
