Diffusion: Revision Notes
Diffusion is the movement of a substance from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration. Diffusion occurs in liquids and gases when their particles collide randomly and spread out.

In order to understand anything in algebra, you have to have an understanding of what a term is. Terms are the building blocks of algebraic equations.
The mitosis process produces two identical diploid cells for the purpose of growth and repair after cell division.
The osmosis process involves the movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane from a region of high water concentration to a region of low concentration.
By moving through the cell membrane, substances can enter and leave the cell. Three of the most common types of movement are diffusion, osmosis, and active transport.
To get you introduced to percentages, we will go through 3 different types of percentage questions that come up in GCSE Maths.
Microscopy is an essential tool for scientific research and analysis, allowing us to observe and study objects that are too small to be seen with the naked eye. GCSE Science students must understand the principles of microscopy and the different types of microscopes and their uses.
Substances dissolved in water are called soluble. In order to survive, living organisms must be able to exchange dissolved substances with their environment. Surface area and size affect the pace at which this can occur.
The most common way microorganisms are grown (cultured) is in a "culture medium", a combination of carbohydrates, minerals, proteins and vitamins. A nutrient broth solution or solid agar jelly can be used as the culture medium.
Bacteria and other prokaryotic cells replicate by a process known as binary fission. Cells that undergo binary fission make copies of their genetic material, then split into two daughter cells.
Stem cells are cells that have NOT yet been differentiated. They are not yet specialised. Some cells do not become specialised yet, but are called undifferentiated.
