A

Storage of sap ( sugar + water )

20
Q

What is the function of the mitochondria

A

21
Q

What is the function of ribosome

A

To make proteins

22
Q

What are the similarities between animal and plant cells

A

They both have:
Cell membrane
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
Mitochondria
Ribosomes

23
Q

What are the differences between plant and animal cells

A

Only a plant cell has a cell wall, a vacuole, and chloroplasts, an animal does not have these.

24
Q

What is cell differentation (stem cells)

A

Cell differentation is the process by which a cell changes to become specillised for its job.

25
What are some advantages of using stem cells in medicine.
They can replace faulty blood cells. Make a stem cell of insulin to help people with diabetes.
26
What are some disadvantages of using stem cells in medicine.
There is a risk of contamination of viruses from the lab the passed on to the patient from teh stem cell.
27
What is the structure of a tissue?
A group of similar cells that work together to perform particular functions
