Patterns and processes of evolution. How evolution and natural selection are reflected in the similarities and differences of organisms. 

Plant cells have a cell wall in addition to a cell membrane, whereas animal cells have only a cell membrane. Plants use cell walls to provide structure to the plant. Plant cells contain organelles called chloroplasts, while animal cells do not. Chloroplasts allow plants to make the food they need to live using photosynthesis.

This video explains how to calculate the perimeter of various 2D shapes.

Food webs are models that demonstrate how matter and energy is transferred between producers, consumers, and decomposers as the three groups interact within an ecosystem. Transfers of matter into and out of the physical environment occur at every level. Decomposers recycle nutrients from dead plant or animal matter back to the soil in terrestrial environments or to the water in aquatic environments. The atoms that make up the organisms in an ecosystem are cycled repeatedly between the living and nonliving parts of the ecosystem.

Overview of animal and plant cells. Topics include cell walls, vacuoles, chloroplasts, peroxisomes, lysosomes, mitochondria, etc.

This is a short tutorial on how to define and measure the perimeter of shapes

By the end of this course you will be able to:

1. Define the terms perimeter and area
2. Find the perimeter of any polygon
3. Find the perimeter and area of a trapezium, parallelogram, rectangle and square
4. Find the area of a triangle
5. Find the perimeter and area of a circle

We can analyse the arrows in a food web to identify producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and decomposers.
