Livings things are created/made up out of “cells.” They are able to maintain to balance… be stable between two things as of being dependent on each other. Livings things are also able to move, feed, grow, reproduce, excrete waste and also breathe… unlike Non-living things which cannot indeed breathe… for example, a car can’t breathe because they don’t have any organs to produce oxygen. Non-living things are not able to move on their own but Living things are, they don’t have all of these characteristics. It is defined that life uses a body of attribution which living organisms share.
PLANT CELL: ANIMAL CELL:
The differences between these two cells “Plant Cell” and “Animal cell” is that there is a total difference in size construction... there are a few difference main structures between these cells, as it concludes the vacuole in the Plant cell and in the Animal cell, it has a more than one. As of animals and plants, they are different but they are still a living thing in life. Plants are able to move around in some cases but not as swiftly animals, it takes quite a long period of time for them to move on their own.
Cell membrane: Very thin transparent sheet that holds everything inside & controls what comes in & out.
Cell wall: Made of cellulose & only found in plants, thick & strong, provides strength for the plant.
Nucleus: Usually a small dark circular spot. The control centre for the cell & contains genes.
Cytoplasm: Watery jelly like substance which fill most of the cell. It holds the cell organelles and contains nutrients & chemicals.
Vacuole: Water filled bubble that helps to keep the cell firm.
Chloroplasts: Small green structures found only in the green part of plants. Makes sugar for the plant.
Mitochondria: The part of the cell that does respiration to give the cell energy.
Specific Learning Outcomes:
Cells
- Describe the building blocks of living organisms
- Explain the function of cell structures
- Distinguish between plant and animal cells
- Describe how cells are involved in reproduction
Life on Earth - Plants
- Describe the importance of plants as producers
- Explain why leaves are called food factories
- Summarise the process of photosynthesis
- Describe the adaptations of leaves for photosynthesis
- List the reasons why water is so important to plants
- Describe how plants lose water to the atmosphere
- Explain how roots absorb water from the soil
- Outline the process which lifts water up a plant
- Describe the nitrogen cycle and its importance to plant growth
- Explain how the properties of soil impact on plant growth
- Discuss the impact of human activity on water and soil quality
Home Work
- Differentiate between a car and a cat. Minimum 4 differences.
1. A cat has organs to create oxygen and a car doesn’t
2. The car is made of steel metal and as of a cat, it has smooth fur
3. A cat is able to move on it’s own, it has a system for sensing unlike a car
4. A car needs an automotive battery that is able to be recharged, the cat gets food for energy.
- Differentiate between a plant cell & an animal cell
The differences between these two cells “Plant Cell” and “Animal cell” is that there is a total difference in size construction... there are a few difference main structures between these cells, as it concludes the vacuole in the Plant cell and none in the Animal cell. As of animals and plants, they are different but they are still a living thing in life. Plants are able to move around in some cases but not as swiftly animals, it takes quite a long period of time for them to move on their own.
- Give functions of...
(I) Cell wall
The function of the cell wall provides strength for the plant.
(II) Cell membrane
This holds everything inside & controls what comes in and out
(III) Nucleus
It contains genes & is the control centre for the cell
(IV) Cytoplasm
It holds the cell organelles and contains nutrients & chemicals.
Unicellular: Those organisms which are made up of single cell are known as unicellular organisms for example “Amoeba.” It consists of an individual cell.
Multi-cellular: Those organisms which are made up of more than one cell are
known as multi-cellular organisms like plants, cat, dog & us.
