Binary Fission Revision Notes and Practice Quiz
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.
GCSE Biology (Science) learning topics and material for students in Year 7 to Year 11.
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.
Chromosomes carry genetic information in a molecule called DNA. A type of cell division called mitosis ensures process happens.
The exchange surfaces are important because they allow oxygen to be exchanged for carbon dioxide. This process allows the body to get the oxygen that it needs.
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.
Undifferentiated cells are cells that haven't yet changed to become specialised for a particular task. They are called stem cells.
Mitosis is the process of cell division that results in the formation of two genetically identical daughter cells. Meiosis is a special type of cell division and this quiz will help you revise and go through different aspects of mitosis.
Do you feel confident with your knowledge of Cell Biology? Take this quiz to test your knowledge and refresh your skills. It will help build your retrieval practice skills and go over some basic terms like the "cell wall" and the differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
All living things are made of cells they're the building blocks of every organism on our planet. However, different organisms have different cell structures.
