The cards Question What is the nucleus of a cell? Tap to flip Answer A sub-cellular structure that contains chromosomes made of DNA molecules. Question What is a genome? Tap to flip Answer The entire genetic material of an organism. Question What is a eukaryote? Tap to flip Answer A cell or organism with a cell membrane, cytoplasm and genetic material enclosed in a nucleus. Question What is a plasmid? Tap to flip Answer A small ring of DNA found in a bacterial cell. Question What is a prokaryote? Tap to flip Answer An organism whose cell has cytoplasm and a cell membrane surrounded by a cell wall, with genetic material not enclosed in a nucleus. Question Give one group of organisms made of cells with a nucleus that stores the genome. Tap to flip Answer Any one of animals, plants, fungi or protists. Question How are organisms made of cells with a nucleus classified? Tap to flip Answer As eukaryotic organisms. Question How are organisms made of cells without a nucleus classified? Tap to flip Answer As prokaryotic organisms. Question Where is the genome stored in a bacterial cell? Tap to flip Answer In the cytoplasm. Question Give one common feature of bacterial cells. Tap to flip Answer For example, a cell membrane, a cell wall or plasmids. Question Do all eukaryotic cells have the same cell components? Tap to flip Answer No; different types differ, for example plant cells also have chloroplasts. Question What is a light microscope? Tap to flip Answer A microscope that uses visible light and a system of lenses to produce magnified images of small objects. Question What is magnification? Tap to flip Answer Making small objects appear larger in order to see more detail. Question In microscopy, what is resolution? Tap to flip Answer The minimum distance at which two distinct points of a specimen can still be seen. Question What does an electron microscope use instead of light? Tap to flip Answer A beam of electrons. Question How do electron microscopes compare with light microscopes in magnification and resolution? Tap to flip Answer Electron microscopes have greater magnification and resolution. Question Can most cells be seen without a microscope? Tap to flip Answer No; most cells are too small. Question Electron microscopy has increased our understanding of which structures? Tap to flip Answer Sub-cellular structures. Question Are all cells approximately the same size? Tap to flip Answer No; cells differ in size. Question What is a species? Tap to flip Answer A group of similar organisms that can breed together to produce fertile offspring. Question How many kingdoms are there in the kingdom system of classification? Tap to flip Answer Five. Question What are the three domains in the three-domain system? Tap to flip Answer Bacteria, Archaea and Eukaryota. Question Which two domains are prokaryotic? Tap to flip Answer Bacteria and Archaea. Question How are organisms arranged in the classification system? Tap to flip Answer In groups within larger groups, from species up to kingdoms and domains. Question In classification, what is meant by an organism's phenotype? Tap to flip Answer Its physical characteristics. Question What microscopic evidence can be used to classify organisms? Tap to flip Answer Their cell structures. Question Is the modern classification system complete? Tap to flip Answer No; new data from experiments or observations can lead to changes. Question What is the full name of DNA? Tap to flip Answer Deoxyribonucleic acid. Question Which molecule is the molecule of inheritance? Tap to flip Answer DNA. Question What is a gene sequence? Tap to flip Answer The sequence of DNA that codes for a particular protein. Question What are evolutionary trees? Tap to flip Answer Diagrams that show the evolutionary relationships between organisms. Question What does comparing gene sequences provide evidence of? Tap to flip Answer Evolutionary relationships. Question Why are organisms sometimes reclassified into a different group? Tap to flip Answer New evidence is discovered. Question Does evolution happen over short or long periods of time? Tap to flip Answer Slowly, over long periods of time. Where this deck sits in the curriculum Curriculum National Curriculum for England Stage GCSE (Years 10–11) Course GCSE Biology Unit Classification in modern biology Exam boards AQA, Edexcel, OCR Tiers foundation and higher England's National Curriculum sets what is taught; the units and their order are Oak National Academy's.

How this deck was checked On 2026-11-02, every card was compared with its source: the lessons of Oak National Academy, a public body funded by England's Department for Education that publishes lessons for the national curriculum. Because the cards come from those lessons, no second source was sought. The comparison was done automatically, not by a teacher, so a card can still be wrong.
