I love this app so much, I also use it daily. I recommend Knowunity to everyone!!! I went from a D to an A with it :D

Philip, iOS User

The app is very simple and well designed. So far I have always found everything I was looking for :D

Lena, iOS user

I love this app โค๏ธ I actually use it every time I study.

Page 1: Cell Structure and Processes

This page covers various aspects of cell biology, including bacterial and animal cell structures, diffusion, osmosis, the cell cycle, and stem cells.

Bacteria and Animal Cells: The document explains that bacteria multiply through binary fission when given nutrients, moisture, and suitable temperature. It also mentions that bacteria on a nutrient agar plate divide to form colonies of millions of bacteria.

Definition: Binary fission is the process by which bacteria divide into two identical daughter cells.

Diffusion and Osmosis: The page provides definitions for diffusion and osmosis, two crucial processes in cell biology.

Definition: Diffusion is the spreading out of particles from high to low concentration until they are evenly spread.

Definition: Osmosis is the movement of water particles from a dilute to a more concentrated solution through a partially permeable membrane.

Cell Cycle and Mitosis: The document outlines the stages of the cell cycle, including growth, DNA replication, mitosis, and cytokinesis.

Highlight: The cell cycle involves six main stages, including cell growth, DNA replication, further growth and DNA repair, mitosis, cytoplasm division, and a temporary resting phase.

Example: During mitosis, chromosomes move about and two nuclei form, followed by the division of cytoplasm to create two identical cells.

Stem Cells: The page mentions stem cells and their potential applications in treating various conditions.

Example: Stem cells can potentially be used to treat conditions such as dementia, leukemia, heart failure, burns, paralysis, and cardiac arrest.

Specialized Cells: The document briefly explains specialized cells in plants and animals.

Definition: A specialized cell is one that has differentiated and become a cell with a special function.

Cell Structure: The page provides information on the structure of plant and animal cells, including their organelles and functions.

Vocabulary: Key cell structures include the nucleus, cell membrane, cell wall, cytoplasm, mitochondria, vacuole, chloroplasts, and ribosomes.

Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic Cells: The document compares prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, highlighting their main differences.

Highlight: Prokaryotic cells have no true nucleus and no organelles except ribosomes, while eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and various organelles.

Microscopy: The page briefly mentions light and electron microscopy techniques used to study cells.

Example: Light microscopy uses light rays shining through a glass slide, while electron microscopy uses electrons passed through a thin sample.

This comprehensive overview of cell biology concepts provides students with essential knowledge for their National 5 Biology studies, covering key topics such as cell structure, diffusion and osmosis, the cell cycle, and specialized cells.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

Best app on earth! no words because itโ€™s too good

Just amazing. Let's me revise 10x better, this app is a quick 10/10. I highly recommend it to anyone. I can watch and search for notes. I can save them in the subject folder. I can revise it any time when I come back. If you haven't tried this app, you're really missing out.

This app has made me feel so much more confident in my exam prep, not only through boosting my own self confidence through the features that allow you to connect with others and feel less alone, but also through the way the app itself is centred around making you feel better. It is easy to navigate, fun to use, and helpful to anyone struggling in absolutely any way.

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

In school I was really bad at maths but thanks to the app, I am doing better now. I am so grateful that you made the app.

very reliable app to help and grow your ideas of Maths, English and other related topics in your works. please use this app if your struggling in areas, this app is key for that. wish I'd of done a review before. and it's also free so don't worry about that.

I know a lot of apps use fake accounts to boost their reviews but this app deserves it all. Originally I was getting 4 in my English exams and this time I got a grade 7. I didnโ€™t even know about this app three days until the exam and it has helped A LOT. Please actually trust me and use it as Iโ€™m sure you too will see developments.

THE QUIZES AND FLASHCARDS ARE SO USEFUL AND I LOVE THE SCHOOLGPT. IT ALSO IS LITREALLY LIKE CHATGPT BUT SMARTER!! HELPED ME WITH MY MASCARA PROBLEMS TOO!! AS WELL AS MY REAL SUBJECTS ! DUHHH ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿค‘๐Ÿ’—โœจ๐ŸŽ€๐Ÿ˜ฎ

This apps acc the goat. I find revision so boring but this app makes it so easy to organize it all and then you can ask the freeeee ai to test yourself so good and you can easily upload your own stuff. highly recommend as someone taking mocks now
