  • Vacuole Boxyoval diagram

    Recognising Vacuole Boxyoval

    Vacuole Boxyoval supports Viewing Cells with Light Microscopes and Staining by giving students a diagram they can connect to the specification point being tested.

    What To Explain

    The answer should name the cell structure and link it to its function, such as control, respiration, photosynthesis or protein synthesis.

    Syllabus Link

    Primary private mapping: OCR GCSE Biology J247, Cell level systems.

    Exam Answer Move

    The mapped objective is: Communicate the key features of the way light microscopes and staining can be used to view cells. Diagram marks usually come from linking a named structure to what it does.

  • Membrane 3d Greenorange diagram

    Recognising Membrane 3d Greenorange

    Membrane 3d Greenorange supports Viewing Cells with Light Microscopes and Staining by giving students a diagram they can connect to the specification point being tested.

    What To Explain

    The membrane is selectively permeable, so substances move across it by diffusion, osmosis or active transport depending on the particle and gradient.
