State that water moves into and out of cells by osmosis through the cell membrane
State that water moves into and out of cells by osmosis through the cell membrane

State that water moves into and out of cells by osmosis through the cell membrane
State that water diffuses through partially permeable membranes by osmosis
Describe the importance of diffusion of gases and solutes in living organisms
State that some substances move into and out of cells by diffusion through the cell membrane
State that the energy for diffusion comes from the kinetic energy of random movement of molecules and ions
Describe diffusion as the net movement of particles from a region of their higher concentration to a region of their lower concentration (i.e. down a concentration gradient), as a result of their random movement
Convert measurements between millimetres (mm) and micrometres (μm)
Calculate magnification and size of biological specimens using millimetres as units
State and use the formula: magnification = image size ÷ actual size
Describe the meaning of the terms: cell, tissue, organ, organ system and organism as illustrated by examples given in the syllabus
