ClickBiology Cambridge IGCSE BiologyExtended Level Classification Plants, Bacteria, Viruses and Fungi
You should be able to: • List the main visible features of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous flowering plants. • List the main features of viruses, bacteria and fungi, and their adaptations to the environment
Flowering plants are classified into two groups: Monocotyledonous plants1 cotyledon strap like leavesparallel veinsflower parts divisible by 3example: kaffir lily
Flowering plants are classified into two groups: Dicotyledonous plants2 cotyledonsbroad leavesbranching veinsflower parts divisible by 4 or 5
Which plant is a monocotyledon and which is a dicotyledon? dicotyledon monocotyledon
You should be able to: • List the main visible features of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous flowering plants. • List the main features of viruses, bacteria and fungi, and their adaptations to the environment
Bacteria are single celled organisms • Bacteria cells are about 1/1000th the size of animal or plant cells. cell membrane cytoplasm DNA no nucleus, DNA is one long strand kept in the cytoplasm cell wall made of peptidoglycans slime capsule
Viruses are not classified as living things as they are not made of cells • Viruses are very small, approximately 100nm across (1nm = 1/1000 000 of a mm) 10nm RNA proteins of the virus coat cross section of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
Viruses reproduce by invading other cells White blood cell (lymphocyte) 1. Virus attaches to cell membrane 2. Virus RNA enters cell 6. New viruses leave the cell 3. DNA copy of the RNA is made 5. Virus cores are made in the cytoplasm 4. Nucleus makes copies of the virus RNA
The main body of a fungus is the mycelium, which is made of hyphae • Fungal cells have cell walls made of substances such as chitin sporangium containing spores mushroom spores produced here Mucor growing on moist bread hyphae of mushroom mycelium hyphae of Mucor mycelium: Secrete digestive enzymes
Now you should be able to: • List the main visible features of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous flowering plants. • List the main features of viruses, bacteria and fungi, and their adaptations to the environment
