Q

why is the cell division restricted in a mature animal cell?

A

a mature animal cell is mainly restricted to repair and replace

21
Q

when does a plant cell differentiate?

A

a plant cell differentiates throughout life

22
Q

How often does cell division (binary fission) take place

A

cell division (binary fission) occurs every 20 minutes depending on the nutrients and temperature

23
Q

to grow an uncontaminated sample of bacterial its necessary to work ____

A

to grow an uncontaminated sample work
aseptically
- in a lab and free of pathogens

24
Q

what must be done when carrying out an uncontaminated sample?

A

make sure…

  • petri dish= sterilised (free from bacteria)
  • sterilised through a flame
  • the lid of the petri dish to be opened as little as possible
  • stored upside down
25
How to calculate the number of bacteria over a certain time
work out many times the bacteria has divided 1) multiply the starting number by 2 2) then multiply that number by 2 and so on - x2 as many times the bacteria divided
26
is stem cell... | differentiated or undifferentiated?
stems cells are undifferentiated
27
where are stem cells from?
stem cells are from human embryos and can be cloned into most different human cells
28
where can Meristem tissue be found? and where does it differentiate?
Meristem tissue are in plant cell and can be differentiated in any plant cell
29
what are the potential risks of stem cells
stem cells have risks of transferring viral infections and people have ethical/ religious rejections.
30
stem cells can be used to produce clones quickly, what are the benefits?
prevent the extinction of plants and can produce large numbers of identical plants at once
31
name 2 gases that are exchanged in a leaf
Water, oxygen or carbon dioxide is exchanged in a leaf
32
What is the function of the alveoli
The function of the alveoli is for rapid transfer of blood and the REMOVAL of the carbon dioxide
33
what plant cell is used to absorb water from the soil?
root hair cell is used to absorb water from minerals
34
What is the function of xylem?
The function of xylem is to transport water into the plant
35
what is the function of the nerve cell?
The function of the nerve cell is to carry around electrical impulse from one part of the body to another
36
are chromosomes normally found in pair or triplets?
Chromosomes are found in pairs ( one from the mother and one from the father)
37
what is mitosis? what is it used for?
mitosis is the stage when the cells divide | it's used to grow or replace damaged cells
38
What is meant by the "mean division time" of a bacterial cell
Mean of division= the average time for a cell to divide into 2
39
what does a stem cell have the ability to do?
A stem cell has the ability to become a different type of cell
40
Name a gas molecule that can diffuse through the cell membrane?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide can diffuse through a cell membrane
41
osmosis is a... a) fully permeable membrane b) partially permeable membrane
Osmosis is a partially/semipermeable membrane
42
What is active transport?
Active transport is the movement between a substance from a Lower to a HIGHER concentration using energy from respiration
43
Difference between ACTIVE TRANSPORT and OSMOSIS
A difference between active transport and osmosis is that... - Active transport needs energy - osmosis needs water ACTIVE transport travels from a LOWER to a HIGHER concentration OSMOSIS travels from a HIGHER to LOWER concentration
44
What do fungi have? | 6
Fungis has a | the nucleus, cell membrane, cell wall, cytoplasm, ribosomes and vacuole
45
what does yeast cell contain? | 4
Yeast cell contains | Nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane and a cell wall
46
Name 3 specialised cells
specialised cells: Red blood cell - carries oxygen to blood tissue Phloem cell - Transportation of sugar Xylem cell - Transportation of water and minerals
