Key Topics to Revise

1

Plasma Membrane Structure and Properties

  • Plasma membrane is the outermost, extremely delicate, elastic and membranous covering that separates cell contents from external environment
  • It is selectively permeable - allows entry of certain substances while preventing passage of others
  • The membrane is living and flexible, enabling various cellular processes
2

Osmosis - Movement of Water

  • Osmosis is the movement of water from less solute concentration to more solute concentration across a membrane
  • Water always moves toward the sugar/salt solution (higher concentration)
  • Demonstrated through raisin experiment - raisins swell in water, shrink in salt solution
3

Diffusion - Movement of Particles

  • Diffusion is the process by which materials spread equally throughout a medium like air or water
  • Demonstrated through scent spreading in room, coffee powder in water, KMnO₄ crystal spreading
  • Particles move from high concentration to low concentration until uniform distribution
4

Solutions and Concentration

  • Solution = Solute (substance dissolved) + Solvent (dissolving medium)
  • Saturated solution: no more solute can dissolve at given temperature
  • Concentration: amount of solute present in given amount of solvent
