  • Name 3 things a plant cell has that an animal cell doesn’t?
    1. cell wall
    2. vacuole
    3. chloroplasts
  • What does a nucleus do?
    The nucleus controls what the cell does.
  • What is the cytoplasm?
    This is a jelly-like stuff where most chemical reactions happen.
  • What is the cell membrane?
    This is a thin skin around the cell- it holds the cell together and also controls what goes in and out.
  • What is the mitochondria?
    These are tiny structures inside the cell where most of the reactions for aerobic respiration take place. Respiration releases energy for the cell.
  • What is a cell wall?
    A rigid outer coating made of cellulose- it gives support to the cell.
  • What is a vacuole?
    This is filled with cell sap- a weak solution of sugar and salts
  • what is chloroplasts?
    these contain chlorophyll used for photosynthesis. Photosynthesis makes food for the plant.
  • What are organisms made of only one cell called?
    unicellular organisms
  • What adaptions has Euglena made to help them survive in water?
    They have a tail-like structure called a flagellum to help them swim
  • What adaption has Amoeba made to help them survive in water?
    They use a contractile vacuole to collect any excess water inside them and squeeze it out at the cell membrane.
  • A group of similar cells come together to make a tissue
  • a group of different tissues work together to make an organ
  • a group of organs work together to make an organ system
  • A multicellular organism is usually made up of several organ systems
  • What is the process called when stuff moves into and out of cells?
    diffusion
  • What is diffusion?
    Diffusion is where a substance moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
  • What is the process of releasing energy from glucose?
    respiration
  • What are 3 examples of respiration?
    building proteins, keeping warm, muscle contraction
  • What is aerobic respiration?
    Aerobic respiration is respiration using oxygen
  • Where does aerobic respiration take place?
    it takes place in the mitochondria of animal and plant cells
  • glucose + water -> carbon dioxide + water + energy
  • What is anaerobic respiration?
    Anaerobic respiration is respiration without oxygen. It usually only happens when cells can’t get enough oxygen.
  • What is the word equation for anaerobic respiration in humans?
    GlucoseLactic acid + energy
  • What is the word equation for anaerobic respiration in microorganisms such as yeast?
    GlucoseEthanol + Carbon Dioxide + Energy
  • What happens when anaerobic respiration produces ethanol (alcohol)?
    Fermentation
  • What is the process called which makes beer?
    Fermentation
