What are all living things made of?
Cells
eukaryotic cells examples
Animal and plant cells
What are the differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic?
Eukaryotic are complex
Prokaryotic cells are smaller and simpler
Prokaryotic cells examples
Bacteria
Nucleus
contains genetic material that controls activities of the cell
Cytoplasm
Gel-like substance and is where most reactions happen; it contains enzymes that control these chemical reactions

photosynthesis
mitochondria
respiration
cell wall
shape of the cell
cell membrane
in/out of the cell
vacuole
full of sugar and sap
ribosomes
produce proteins

Two different specialist cells
root hair cell, nerve cell
what is differentiation>
turning into a specialised cell
calculate magnification
measure size/actual size
what do chromosomes?
infromation
what is mitosis
dividing into 2 identical cells
stem cells???
cell that can become any type of cell
diffusion
particles from high conc to low conc
osmosis
water particles from high conc to low conc
active transport
Active transport is the movement of particles from an area where they are in lowerconcentration to an area where they are in higher concentration- against theirconcentration gradient.
