Presentation Transcript
Week 1 At AS level you will look in much closer detail at the inner workings of cells. Use one of your biology books (or the Web if you haven t bought a book yet) to label as many parts of this animal cell as you can. TASK 1.You should be able to add at least 10 labels. 2. Draw out a table for 10 cell organelles and summarise their main functions 3. In the GCSE to A level transition booklet complete retrieval questions and section 1 (numbers and units). Resources: https://www.cellsalive.com/cells/cell_model.htm Check out both the animal and plant cells Watch the video Inner life of the cell on this website 1
Week 2 At AS level you will learn about the different types of microscope and how they work. The main types of microscopes we will be looking at are ; Light microscope,Scanning electron microscope and Transmission electron microscope TASK: 1.Find out more information about the different types of microscopes, their properties, advantages and disadvantages. Compare the advantages and disadvantages of all the three 2.Complete section 3 and 4 in the transition booklet. Resources: http://www.biologymad.com/cells/microscopy.htm watch this video: Microscopy: Early history of Microsopy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U73iwy3YqCA&t=799s 2
Week 3 At AS level you will need to compare the different types of cells. It is important you know the structure of bacterial cell and also the different types of specialised cells TASK 1.Draw and fully label a diagram of a typical bacterial cell. (At least 5 labels) Describe how this is different and similar from an animal and plant cells 2. Describe 3 specialised cells that you have studied each in plants and in animals. Draw their structure and describe how the cell structure is adapted to the function of these cells. Resources: Use any GCSE textbook/guide to complete the task.

Week 4 There are a number of ways that substances may move into and out of living cells. Some of these are passive (require no energy) and others are active (require energy). Task: Describe each of these types of cell transport, and give an example of each one: Diffusion ,Facilitated diffusion,Osmosis ,Active transport. Give examples where they take place in living cells. Can you add any adaptation that these cells have for this transport to take place?
