True or false: Animal cells have cell walls
False
What is the function of ciliated cells?
Moving mucus
Which structure is at a different level of organisation from the other three?
Kidney, liver, neurone, testis
Neurone
What does it mean to have a haploid nucleus?
Having half of a normal nucleus
What are stem cells?
Cells that can grow to replace other cells (originally don’t carry out a purpose)
What are stem cells currently being used for?
Treating blood diseases
What does the nucleus of the cell do?
Has genetic infornmation
Controls cell activities
What do the mitochondrion do?
Aerobic respiration occurs
Provides energy
What does cell membrane of a cell do?
Controls entry and exit of substances
What do the ribosomes of a cell do?
Site of protein synthesis
What do the chloroplast in plant cells do?
Absorb light energy to make food
What does the vacuole of a plat cell do?
Removes waste
What do red blood cells do?
Carry oxygen around body for respiration
What do nerve cells do?
Transmit electrical signals around the body and rapid speeds
What do muscle cells do?
Contract and retract to move muscles
Criteria for drawing a good table
Independent variable on the left
Dependent variable on the right
Writing in table should be in pen
Lines for table should be in pencil
No need for a title
How to write a conclusion
Describe results (state the obvious)
Explain results (give background info from other knowledge to explain what happened in experiment)
What part of a cell is partially permeable?
The cell membrane
Name the levels of organisation in living organisms in order
Cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organisms
