Science Test-April 25th

Living things have several characteristics that distinguish them from non-living things. 

Plant and animal cells have many similarities, but also have distinctive differences.

The cell membrane is a selectively permeable membrane. It regulates the movement of substances into and out of the cell.

Diffusion is one of the basic ways that substances move into and out of cells.  Movement of particles from a higher concentration to  lower concentration

Osmosis moves water into and out of cells.

Cells use special processes to move non-dissolved particles, or large amounts of material into and out of the cytoplasm,

There are 5 phases of cell division= Mitosis

Genetic Information to an organism is important. 

Research about cells, viruses and bacteria brought improvement to health care 

Be sure to be able to explain these.
