B2.1 Cells and simple cell transport All living things are made up of cells. The structures of different types of cells are related to their functions. To get into or out of cells, dissolved substances have to cross the cell membranes. Can you: ■ relate the structure of different types of cells to their function? Key words

Cytoplasm
Cell membrane
Mitochondria
Ribosomes

B2.1.1 Cells and cell structure
a) Most human and animal cells have the following parts:
■ a nucleus, which controls the activities of the cell ■ cytoplasm, in which most of the chemical reactions take place ■ a cell membrane, which controls the passage of substances into and out of the cell ■ mitochondria, which are where most energy is released in respiration ■ ribosomes, which are where protein synthesis occurs.
b) Plant and algal cells also have a cell wall made of cellulose, which strengthens the cell. Plant cells often have:
■ chloroplasts, which absorb light energy to make food ■ a permanent vacuole filled with cell sap.

c) A bacterial cell consists of cytoplasm and a membrane surrounded by a cell wall; the genes are not in a distinct nucleus.
Nucleus – controls the activities of the cell.
Cytoplasm – where most of the chemical reactions take place.
Cell membrane - controls the passage of substances in and out of the cell.
Mitochondria - where most energy is released in respiration.
Ribosomes - where protein synthesis occurs.
Cell wall – made of cellulose and strengthens plant cells.
Chloroplasts - absorb light energy to make food in plant cells.
Permanent vacuole - filled with cell sap in plant cells.
Comparison of a plant and animal cell
Both have
Plant has that animal cell doesn’t
Animal cell has that plant doesn’t

d) Yeast is a single-celled organism. Yeast cells have a nucleus, cytoplasm and a membrane surrounded by a cell wall.
Bacteria
Bacterium is a single-celled organism.
A bacterial cell consists of cytoplasm and a membrane surrounded by a cell wall.
The genes are not in a distinct nucleus.
e) Cells may be specialised to carry out a particular function.

B2.1.2 Dissolved substances
Movement into and out of cells
To get into or out of cells, dissolved substances have to cross the cell membranes.
Solutes = particles in solution eg glucose, sodium ions, chloride ions.
Solvent = liquid in which the particles are dissolved eg water.
Solute and solvent molecules move around randomly.
Solutes can move into and out of cells by diffusion. a) Dissolved substances can move into and out of cells by diffusion. b) Diffusion is the spreading of the particles of a gas, or of any substance in solution, resulting in a net movement from a region where they are of a higher concentration to a region with a lower concentration. The greater the difference in concentration, the faster the rate of diffusion.
c) Oxygen required for respiration passes through cell membranes by diffusion.

B2.2 Tissues, organs and organ systems
The cells of multicellular organisms may differentiate and become adapted for specific functions. Tissues are aggregations of similar cells; organs are aggregations of tissues performing specific physiological functions. Organs are organised into organ systems, which work together to form organisms.

B2.2.1 Animal organs
a) Large multicellular organisms develop systems for exchanging materials. During the development of a multicellular organism, cells differentiate so that they can perform different functions.
b) A tissue is a group of cells with similar structure and function. Examples of tissues include:
■ muscular tissue, which can contract to bring about movement ■ glandular tissue, which can produce substances such as enzymes and hormones ■ epithelial tissue, which covers some parts of the body.
12 |
c) Organs are made of tissues. One organ may contain several tissues. The stomach is an organ that contains:
■ muscular tissue, to churn the contents ■ glandular tissue, to produce digestive juices ■ epithelial tissue, to cover the outside and the inside of the stomach
Type of tissue General role Role in the stomach organ
Muscular
Glandular
Epithelial
13 |
d) Organ systems are groups of organs that perform a particular function. The digestive system is one example of a system in which humans and other mammals exchange substances with the environment. The digestive system includes:
■ glands, such as the pancreas and salivary glands, which produce digestive juices ■ the stomach and small intestine, where digestion occurs ■ the liver, which produces bile ■ the small intestine, where the absorption of soluble food occurs ■ the large intestine, where water is absorbed from the undigested food, producing faeces. Label the diagram: Use the following terms
Gall Bladder Large intestine Liver Mouth Oesophagus Salivary gland Small intestine Stomach Anus

B2.2.2 Plant organs
a) Plant organs include stems, roots and
leaves.
b) Examples of plant tissues include:
■ epidermal tissues, which cover the
plant
■ mesophyll, which carries out
photosynthesis
■ xylem and phloem, which transport
substances around the plant.
