Q

What does plasmid DNA do

A

Small loops of extra DNA that aren’t part of the chromosome. Plasmid contains genes for things like drug resistance, and can be passed between bacteria.

Q

What does the flagellum do

A

Long hair like structure that rotates to makes the bacterium move. Used to move bacteria away from harmful substances like toxins and towards beneficial things like nutrients and oxygen.

Q

How is the egg cell adapted to its function

A

Contains nutrients in the cytoplasm to feed the embryo, after fertilisation it changes structure to stop more sperm.

25
What is the function of the ciliated epithilical cell
To move substances
26
How is the ciliated epithilical cell adapted to its function
Has cilia on the top of the cell which helps move the substance
27
What die stud ciliated epithilical cell look like
Cilia on the top. Nucleus in the middle of each section
28
What is the function of the microvilli
To absorb small food
29
How is microvilli adapted to its function
Membrane switch many tiny folds. Increased surface area
30
What does the microvilli look like
Has 3 sections with a lot of mitochondria in
31
What’s resolution
Ability of the microscope to measure the angular separation of images that are close together
32
What’s magnification
Ratio of the size of an image to the size of an object
33
What mm
Millimetres
34
What’s um
Micrometer
35
What’s nm
Manometer
36
What’s pm
Picometer
37

-3 | X10
38
Whats micrometer in standard form
-6 | X 10
39
What’s nanometer in standard form
-9 | X10
40
What’s picometer in standard form
-12 | X10
41
What’s standard form used for
Used to shorten numbers
42
How do u work out magnification
Image size Magnification = —————- Actual size
43
How do you work out the actual size
Image size Actual size = ————— Magnification
44
How work out the image size
Actual size x magnification
45
How do you test for starch
Put starch in a test tube Ad iodine If it goes blue/ Black it’s positive if orange its negative
46
How test for glucose
``` Put glucose in a test tube Add some drops of Benedict’s solution Heat the solution in a beaker of hot water If positive it goes G -Y-O-R If negative stays blue ```
47
What enzyme breaks down carbohydrates
Amylase
48
How do carbohydrates break down into glucose
Amylase cuts the bonds of the carbohydrates to make glucose
49
What is a catalyst
A molecule which speeds up chemical reactions
50
What are globular catalysts
Enzymes which act as a catalyst by lowering activation energy
51
What’s a lock and key hypothesis
Every enzyme has a specific substrate that fits into the active site.
52
What the active site
Where the substrate binds with the enzyme and undergoes a chemical reaction
53
What’s an enzyme substrate complex
When the enzyme and substrate form
54
What happens to the substrate after the enzyme substrate complex is formed
It splits in half
55
What’s most enzymes optimum temperature
40 degrees c
56
What’s mostenzymes optimum ph
7 but pepsin has an optimum pH of 2
57
What are catabolic enzymes
Breaker enzymes - split up large molecules into smaller ones
58
What are anabolic enzymes
Builder enzymes - join small molecules together to make larger ones
59
What’s diffusion
Movement of molecules from a high concentration of molecules to a low concentration
60
What’s osmosis
Molecules from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated solution
61
What’s active transport
Movement of particles against a concentration gradient
