Cell Structure: Eukaryotic Cells, Prokaryotic Cells & Specialised Cells
A focused audio revision session covering Edexcel GCSE Biology Topic 1.1 — Cell Structure. We cover the five kingdoms, the key features of eukaryotic animal and plant cells, the structure of prokaryotic bacteria, and the adaptations of three specialised cells: sperm, egg, and ciliated epithelial cells.

Edexcel GCSE Biology · Topic 1.1 · Episode 1
A focused audio revision session covering the whole of Topic 1.1 — Cell Structure. In around eight minutes you'll work through: the five biological kingdoms, the defining features of eukaryotic cells, how animal and plant cells differ, the structure of prokaryotic bacterial cells, and the adaptations of three specialised cell types.
What's covered in this episode:
- The five kingdoms: Animals, Plants, Fungi, Protoctists and Prokaryotes
- Eukaryotes vs prokaryotes — the membrane-bound nucleus distinction
- Animal cell features: no cell wall, no chloroplasts, glycogen storage
- Plant cell features: cellulose cell wall, chloroplasts, starch/sucrose storage
- Bacterial cell structure: circular chromosome, plasmids, peptidoglycan wall, flagella
- Specialised cells: sperm cell adaptations, egg cell adaptations, ciliated epithelial cells
