This write-up covers the core essentials of SSC Biology Chapter 2: Cells and Tissues of Organisms
Regulates the inflow and outflow of water, minerals, and nutrients. Protoplasm vs. Cytoplasm
Small, non-membrane-bound structures composed of RNA and proteins. They serve as the platform for protein synthesis.
The entire "living" part of the cell, including the plasma membrane, cytoplasm, and nucleus. It is often called the "physical basis of life."
: The entire living content of a cell, including the nucleus and cytoplasm. Growth occurs when absorbed food is converted into protoplasm. Key Organelles :
Contains DNA, the blueprint of hereditary traits. 3. Plant Tissues Tissues are groups of cells performing a specific function. Simple Tissue:
Possess a well-defined, membrane-bound nucleus and specialized organelles (e.g., Protists, Fungi, Plants, Animals). Types of Cells (Based on Function)
Tissues group together to form organs, which function collectively within organ systems.
Flat, scale-like cells (e.g., lining of blood vessels, Bowman's capsule). Functions in filtration and diffusion.
