11
New cards
Plant
________ and animal cells (eukaryotic cells) have a cell membrane, cytoplasm and genetic material enclosed in a nucleus.
12
New cards
Oxygen
________ (produced in photosynthesis) and water vapour also diffuse out through the stomata.
13
New cards
mitosis
In ________ one set of chromosomes is pulled to each end of the cell and the nucleus divides.
14
New cards
Nucleus
________- Contains genetic material that controls the activities of the cell.
15
New cards
green substance
They contain a(n) ________ called chlorophyll which absorbs the light needed for photosynthesis.
16
New cards
DNA
The ________ replicates to form two copies of each chromosome.
17
New cards
Cell
________ membrane- Holds the ________ together and controls what goes in and out.
18
New cards
Differentiation
________ is the process by which a cell changes to become specialised for its job.
19
New cards
embryo
In therapeutic cloning a(n) ________ is produced with the same genes as the patient.
20
New cards
Substances
________ may move into and out of cells across the cell membranes by diffusion.
21
New cards
electron microscope
The ________ has increased the understanding of sub cellular structures because they have a higher resolution.
22
New cards
number of sub cellular structures
Before a cell can divide it needs to grow and increase the ________ such as ribosomes and mitochondria.
23
New cards
Phloem
________ and xylem cells from ________ and xylem tubes, which transport substances such as food and water around plants.
24
New cards
temperature
The ________: The higher it is, the faster the diffusion rate because the particles have more energy so move around faster.
25
New cards
slide
A(n) ________ is a strip of clear glass or plastic onto which the specimen is mounted.
26
New cards
Osmosis
________ is the diffusion of water from a dilute solution to a concentrated solution through a partially permeable membrane.
27
New cards
Microscopy techniques
________ have developed over time as technology and knowledge have improved.
28
New cards
Stem cells
________ from meristems in plants can be used to produce clones of plants quickly and economically.
29
New cards
Crop plants
________ with special features such as disease resistance can be cloned to produce large numbers of identical plants for farmers.
30
New cards
surface area
The ________ of the membrane: The bigger it is, the faster the diffusion rate because more particles can pass through at once.
31
New cards
cell membranes
Water may move across ________ by osmosis.
32
New cards
dependent variable
The ________ is the chip mass and the independent variable is the concentration of the sugar solution.
33
New cards
nucleus of a cell
The ________ contains chromosomes made of DNA molecules.
34
New cards
alveoli
The ________ are specialised to maximise the diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
35
New cards
multicellular organisms
In ________, surfaces and organ systems are specialised for exchanging materials.
36
New cards
Sugar molecules
________ are used for cell respiration.
37
New cards
Diffusion
________ is the spreading out of the particles of any substance in solution, or particles of a gas, resulting in a net movement from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration.
38
New cards
Respiration transfers energy
________ that the cell needs to work.
39
New cards
gill filaments
The ________ are covered in lots of tiny structures called lamellae which increase the surface area even more.
40
