science biology - paper 1 Flashcards
eukaryotic and prokaryotic?
eukaryotic-complete ones (animal & plant )
prokaryotic- smaller & simple (bacterial)
what is in an animal cell?
nucleus
ribosomes
cytoplasm
cell membrane
mitochondria
plant cell?
nucleus
vacuole
cell membrane
ribosomes
chloroplasts
cytoplasm
mitochondria
cel wall
bacterial cell?
cell membrane
cytoplasm
plasmid
strand of DNA
cell wall
how many chromosomes does a nucleus contain?
23 pairs (46) in total
what is mitosis
type of cell division, important for growth & development
enzymes?
proteins and work using a lock & key fit.
plasma
liquid which carries eberything in the blood
risk factors for disease
poor diet/ lack of exercise
alcahol
obesity
smoking
carcinogens
photosynthesis
carbon dioxide + water -> light -> glucose + oxygen
happens in the chloroplast inside cells in leaves
contains cholorphyll
light is absorbed
endothermic reaction
glucose used for respiration.
aerobic respiration?
oxygen is supplied
during excercise heart, breathing and blood rate all increase
more oxygenated blood
anaerobic respiration
happens in muscles when there’s insufficient oxygen
muscles become tired
builds up lactic acid creating oxygen debt
