In this unit, we will learn about microscopes, the different types of cells, how to tell the difference between them and some adaptations that allow them to carry out specific jobs.
We will also learn about the transport of material into and out of cells by diffusion, osmosis, and active transport.
When studying the processes for transferring material, you also need to be able to explain the adaptations of exchange surfaces and link these to the processes of material transport.
