Cells

Question 1

What is an organism?

Answer 1

A living thing

Question 2

What makes up an organism?

Answer 2

Cells

Question 3

What are the cell structures in an animal cell?

Answer 3

nucleus, cytoplasm, cell surface membrane, mitochondria

Question 4

What is a nucleus?

Answer 4

a cell structure of an animal and plant cell which contains genes which are sections of DNA, and the genes control the production of proteins

Question 5

what is a cytoplasm?

Answer 5

a cell structure of an animal and plant cell which is a jelly like substance where chemical reactions happen

Question 6

What is a cell surface membrane?

Answer 6

a cell structure of an animal and plant cell which is a thin layer of skin around the cell, holds the cells together and controls what goes in and out

Question 7

What is a mitochondria?

Answer 7

a cell structure of an animal and plant cell which is where aerobic respiration happens and it releases energy

Question 8

what are the cell structures in a plant cell?

Answer 8

as well as having a nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane and mitochondria it also has a cell wall, vacuole and chloroplasts

Question 9

What is a cell wall?

Answer 9

a cell structure of a plant cell which is an outer coating made of cellulose which gives support to the cell

Question 10

what is a vacuole?

Answer 10

a cell structure of a plant cell which has cell sap which is a weak solution of sugar and salts

Question 11

what is chloroplast?

Answer 11

a cell structure of a plant cell which contains chlorophyll which is used for photosynthesis

Question 12

what are the animal and plant cells called?

Answer 12

multicellular organisms

Question 13

what organ systems do plants have?

Answer 13

root system and shoot system

Question 14

What are multicellular organisms?

Answer 14

Animals and plants made up of lots of cells

Question 15

What are the groups when their are lots of cells sorted into groups?

Answer 15

Cells - tissue 
Tissue - organ
Organ - organ system 
Multicellular organisms 
- several organ systems

Question 16

What are the human organ systems called?

Answer 16

Gaseous exchange system and the reproductive system

Question 17

What are the plant organ systems called?

Answer 17

Root system and shoot system

Question 18

What are living things that are only made up of one cell?

Answer 18

Unicellular organisms

Question 19

What do unicellular organisms need to survive?

Answer 19

Adaptions

Question 20

What are two examples of adaptations that unicellular organisms need to survive?

Answer 20

Euglena and amoeba

Question 21

where does a euglena live?

Answer 21

in the water

Question 22

what is the tail of the euglena’s name and what does it do?

Answer 22

flagellum and it helps the euglena to swim

Question 23

what gas gets passed by diffusion in the moist surface membrane?

Answer 23

oxygen

Question 24

how does it get its food?

Answer 24

they have chloroplasts on their surface membrane and that helps them to do photosynthesis to make their own food

Question 25

where does amoeba live?

Answer 25

as well as euglena, amoeba also lives in the water

Question 26

what do they use the membrane for?

Answer 26

extend it out a bit of their membrane and use it like an arm and then flow into it

Question 27

what happens in the moist surface membrane?

Answer 27

exchange gases like in the euglena

Question 28

how do they eat?

Answer 28

the cell membrane wraps around the food and drags it into the body

Question 29

what is an adaptation?

Answer 29

An adaptation is a special skill which helps an animal to survive and do everything it needs to do
