  • What is Mitosis
    Process of a cell dividing to produce 2 new cells that are identical (daughter cells)
  • How many chromosones do the daughter cells have
    46 each
  • What happens is stage 1 of the cell cycle 

    Cells grow
    DNA replicates
  • What happened as stage 2 of the cell cycle
    Mitosis
    nucleus splits
  • what happens at stage 3 of cell cycle
    Cytoplasm and cell
    membrain divide
    2 identical cells are made
  • what subcellular structures are in a animal cell (eukaryotic cells) 

    Cell membrane
    nucleus
    cytoplasm
    mitochondria
    ribosome
  • What is the subcellular structure of a plant cell ( eukaryotic cells)

    Cell membrane
    cell wall
    vacuole
    nucleus
    chloroplasts
    cytoplasm
    mitochondria
  • Definition : specialised cell

    A cell that has a specific role and structure in the body
  • examples of specialised cells
    nerve cells
    sperm cells
    muscle cells
  • Plant examples of specialised cells
    root hair cells
    phloem cells
    xylem cells
  • Definition - diffusion
    Movement of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration ( doesn’t require energy)
  • Factors that influence diffusion
    Concentration
    temperature
    surface area
  • Definition: Osmosis
    Diffusion of water molecules from a high water cone to a lower water concentration
  • Definition : partially permeable membrane
    Membrain with tiny holes to allow small molecules to pass through it
  • Definition : Active transport
    Particles moving up the concentration gradient if energy is used ( digestive system)
  • Give an example of a prokaryotic cell?
    Bacteria cell
  • What is a key diff between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells
    Bacteria cells don’t have enclosed DNA instead they have singular loops called plasmids
  • Which cells are the smallest
    Prokaryotic (bacteria cells)
