Explanation:

Q.1 write a short note on mitochondria

  • Mitochondria are known as the powerhouses of the cell.

  • The biochemical processes of the cell are known as cellular respiration

Q.2 explain the concept of diffusion

  • diffusion is the movement of a fluid from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
  • ... Diffusion may also be thought of as the movement of particles down a concentration gradient.
  • The term "diffusion" comes from the Latin word diffundere, which means "to spread out.

  • Cell wall Absent Present (formed of cellulose)
  • Shape Round (irregular shape) Rectangular (fixed shape)
  • Vacuole One or more small vacuoles (much smaller than plant cells). One, large central vacuole taking up to 90% of cell volume.
  • Centrioles Present in all animal cells Only present in lower plant forms (e.g. chlamydomonas)
  • Chloroplast Absent Plant cells have chloroplasts to make their own food.
  • Plastids Absent Present
  • Plasma Membrane Only cell membrane Cell wall and a cell membrane
  • Flagella Present in some cells ( e.g. mammalian sperm cells) Present in some cells (e.g. sperm of bryophytes and pteridophytes, cycads and Ginkgo)
