Ribosome
Forms proteins
Cell Membrane
Controls what moves in and out of the cell
Nucleus
Powerhouse of the cell, contains DNA
MItochondria
Carries out respiration
Cytoplasm
Where reactions occur
Cell Wall
GIves shape and structure to cell (made of cellulose)
Chloroplasts
Contain chlorophyll
Vacuole
Contains nutrients
Bacterial Cell parts
Loop of DNA, Cell Wall, Cell Membrane, Plasmid, Ribosomes, Cytoplasm
Plasmid
Small sections of DNA
Cell
Makes up all living organisms
Tissue
distinct material of which organisms are made consisting of cells
Organ
Specialised structure composed of many different tissues that perform a function
Organ System
Biological system consisting of a group of organs that work together
Organism
A plant, animal or single-celled life from that carries out MRS GREN
Root Hair Cells Function
Absorb water and minerals
Palisade Mesophyll Cells
Carry out photosynthesis
Red Blood Cells
Transport Oxygen
Diffusion
Movement of particles to fill a space they are in
Factors of DIffusion
Large surface area, higher temperature, higher concentration gradient, shorter distance all INCREASE diffusion
Osmosis
Movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of high water potential to low water potential
Turgid
Swollen and distended
Turgor Pressure
A state of turdigity
Plasmolysis
Shrinking of a plants cytoplasm due to water loss
Flaccid
Loose or limp, drooping
Active Transport
Particles moving against a concentration gradient using energy from respiration (opposite of diffusion)
Carbohydrates
Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (simple + complex sugars)
Fats
Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (lipids and fatty acids)
Protein
carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen (amino acids)
Iodine
Starch
Benedict's solution
Sugars
Biuret
Proteins
Ethanol Emulsion
Fats and oils
Enzymes
Proteins that function as a biological catalyst
Enzyme-Substrate Complex
A temporary association formed when an enzyme binds to its active site, a chemical reaction occurs and a product forms
Increase in temperature causes? (Enzymes)
Morse frequent collisions between enzymes and substrates.
What can denature an enzyme?
Temperatures past the optimum or the wrong pH level.
Photosynthesis
Process in which plants manufacture carbohydrates from raw materials using energy from light
Water + Carbon Dioxide
Glucose + Oxygen
Magnesium Ions
Central component in chlorophyll molecules
Chlorophyll
Transfers light energy into chemical energy molecules
What are carbs produced during photosynthesis used for?
Immediate energy, structural support and storage
Palisade Mesophyll
Contain many chloroplasts
Stomata
Allow gas exchange
Spongy Mesophyll
Have spaces to allow gasses to move
Guard Cells
Control the opening and closing of the stomata
Xylem
Transport water and dissolved minerals
Pholem
Transport sugars and organic compounds
Balanced DIet
The consumption of a variety of foods in correct portions for optimal health
Carbohydrates Function
Energy
Fats Function
Absorption
Proteins Function
Muscle
Vitamin C Function
Immunity
Vitamin D Function
Bone health
Iron Function
Red blood cells
Fibre
Moves things through the alimentary canal
Constipation
Caused by lack of dietary fibre
Coronary Heart Disease
Caused by high cholesterol levels
Obesity
Caused by imbalance between calorie intake and energy expenditure
Scurvy cause
Caused by vitamin C deficiency
Vitamin D deficiency cause
Caused by lack of sun exposure
Iron deficiency can lead to…
Anemia, fatigue and pale skin
Ingestion
The taking of substances into the body through the mouth
Digestion
The breakdown of large, insoluble molecules into small, soluble molecules through mechanical and chemical processes
Absorption
The movement of small food molecules and ions through the wall of the intestine into the blood
Egestion
The passing out of food that has not been digested or absorbed as faeces, through the anus
Alimentary Canal parts
Mouth, Salivary Glands, Oesophagus, Stomach, Small Intestine, Pancreas, Liver, Gall Bladder, Large Intestine, Anus
Mechanical Digestion
Breakdown of food into smaller pieces without chemical change to the food molecules
Chemical DIgestion
The breakdown of large, insoluble molecules into small, soluble molecules
Amalase
Found in the salivary glands and small intestine, breaks down starch into simpler sugars
Protease
Found in the stomach and small intestine, breaks down protein into amino acids
Lipase
Found in the small intestine and stomach, breaks down fats into fatty acids and glycerol
Hydrochloric Acid
Kills bacteria that have been ingested with food and creates acidic pH for enzymes
Root Hair Cells Adaptation
Increase the surface area of a root
Transpiration
Loss of water from plant leaves via evaporation through the surface of mesophyll and the stomata
Higher temperature _ transpiration
Increases
Humidity _ transpiration
Decreases
