What are the forms of life?
Keywords:
  • Unicellular organism: living things made up of only a one cell. (2)
  • Multicellular organisms: living things made up of many cells. (2)
  • Yeast: Yeast are single-celled fungi. They are useful in food production. The carbon dioxide produced by yeast makes bread dough rise, and the ethanol it (1)
  • Pseudopodia: Are false feet found on Protoza to move about and to surround food and take it inside the cell. (1)
  • Flagella: Tails found on bacteria that allows them to swim. (1)
  • Yeast: Yeast are single-celled fungi. They are useful in food production. The carbon dioxide produced by yeast makes bread dough rise, and the ethanol it produces makes beer and wine alcoholic. (1)
  • Bacteria: Bacteria are living cells and, in favourable conditions, can multiply rapidly. Once inside the body, they release poisons or toxins that make us feel ill. (1)
  • Protozoa: Protozoa are single-celled organisms., (1)
  • Gene: A gene is a short section of DNA. Each gene codes for a specific protein by specifying the order in which amino acids must be joined together (1)

W Unicellular organisms are living things made up of only a one cell. What does unicellular mean?
W Multicellular organisms are living things made up of many cells. What does multicellular mean?
T Bacteria, Protozoa and Yeast (unicellular fungi) are examples of unicellular organisms. Name 3 types of unicellular life.
T A bacterial cell consists of cytoplasm and a membrane surrounded by a cell wall; the genes are not in a distinct nucleus. Some Bacteria may have Flagella (tails) to swim. What are the parts of a bacterial cell?
T Yeast cells have a nucleus, cytoplasm and a membrane surrounded by a cell wall. What organelles do yeast cells have?
T Protoza have pseudopodia (“false feet”) to move about and to surround food and take it inside the cell. Protoza have temporary vacuoles containing waste. What are pseudopodia?
A Students to sort prepared slides or diagrams of unicellular organisms based on their characteristics. Can you see unicellular or multicellular organisms with the naked eye?
