Classifications
(Domain) Eukaryota: unicellular or multicellular organisms within a biological membrane and a specialised nucleus
(Kingdom) Animalia
-
-
-
-
-
-
Examples:You, Your siblings, Cat, Dog,
(Kingdom) Fungi
-
-
Some are unicellular, some are multicellular
-
-
-
-
-
Some multi cellular ones e.g. Mucor are organised into MYCELIUM made of Hyphae containing many Nuclei

Transport of Substances
Osmosis
Water molecules moving from an area of high water potential to an area of low water potential across a partially permeable membrane. It is a slow passive process that doesn't require additional energy
Hypertonic
-
-
Plant
Loses water from osmosis, thus the cytoplasm shrinks away from the cell wall
Animal
Loses water through osmosis, becoming shrivelled
Isotonic
-
-
Plant
No water is lost of gained, so the cell stays slightly turgid
Animal
No water is lost or gained, so the cell stays flaccid
-
-
Diffusion
The movement of particles in a fluid from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. It is a slow and passive process that doesn't require additional energy
-
Active Transport
Active Transport is the movement of particles against the concentration gradient. This process requires additional energy, cells that need to carry out active transport (e.g. root cells) need to have a lot more mitochondria
This is done through carrier proteins, in which the carrier protein closes up once a particle moves into the carrier protein to force it inside (guys this is really weird without diagram)
Cells
Stem Cells
-
-
For Stem Cell Treatments
• Will overcome immune rejection
• Uses embryos that have been thrown away from fertility clinics
• Help curing incurable diseases like cancer and degenerative diseases
• It can help extreme injuries to recover and improve peoples lives
• Could prevent surgery costing less money and time

Organelles
Cytoplasm
Jelly like substance that holds organelles, most chemical reactions occur here, anaerobic respiration occurs here
-
-
-
-
Cell Walls
Tough outer layer gives shape and prevents cells from bursting from internal pressure acting outwards, it is FREELY PERMEABLE
Vacuole
Contains a supply of cell sap, store of dissolved minerals and sugar
-
Enzymes
-
-
Active Site
The place where the enzyme breaks down the substrate, the active site
-
-
Optimum temp.
At a specific temperature an enzyme will work best. If it is too hot, the shape of the active site will change, making it less effective at breaking down the substrate. If it is too cold, the enzyme will have less kinetic energy to move, resulting in much less frequent collisions with the substrate, and thus will not be able to digest as much
