Cells Flashcards
Name the 7 life processes
Movement-Reproduce-Stimuli-
Growth-respire-Excrete-Nutrients
Explain movement
This is the process off organisms changing their position in their environment
Explain reproduce
This is the process of organisms passing on their genes to their offspring
Explain stimuli
This is the process of organisms protecting or responding to changes in their environment
Explain growth
This has been organisms get bigger or become more complex as they get older
Explain respire
This is the process that enables organisms to transform food into energy that their cells can use
Explain excrete
This is the process of organisms removing any waste products from inside them
Explain nutrients
This is a process of obtaining food animals consume(eat) other living things to get food plants make their own by photosynthesis
What is the piece on a microscope that you look through
The eyepiece
What are the three pieces on the end of the eyepiece
The objective lenses
What is the nucleus
It is the brain of the cell and also includes the DNA of the cell
What is the cell membrane
Cell membrane controls what goes in and out of the cell
What is a cell wall
Is only found on plant cells and helps keep the structure of the cell
What is a cytoplasm
The cytoplasm is a jelly-like substance where chemical reactions occur
What is a vacuole
It is only found in plant cells and store sells sap
What is a chloroplast
It is where photosynthesis happens and there’s only found in plant cells
Diffusion
This is the movement of particles from a high concentration to a low concentration
Resistance =
Resistance =voltage ÷current
Speed=
Speed =distance÷time
Force=
Force=spring constant×extension
Explain spring constant
How springy it is
Dependent variable
What you measure
Control variable
What you keep the same
Independent variable
What you change
Spring constant =
Force ÷extension
Density =
Mass÷volume
Pressure =
Force÷area
What keeps a balloon inflated
The particles move with kinetic energy and hit the sides
Convection
The transfer of heat energy by liquid or fluid motion from a hot object to a cool one
Conduction
The transfer of heat energy by direct contact and the passion vibration from a hot object to a cool one
Radiation
The transfer of heat energy by waves from a got object to a cool one
