Cell Structure: Eukaryotic Cells, Prokaryotic Cells & Specialised 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
