apart.
24a. Mitosis in bacteria is termed?
Binary fission.
Shortage of
nutrients.
• Humans grow by making new cells in a process called
mitosis.
• The process starts when a fertilised egg divides into a ball
of cells called the embryo.
• The cells are all genetically identical at this stage but
they will differentiate or specialise for a particular
function.
25. What is a stem cell?
No chance of rejection.
27. Stem cells from adult bone marrow can form
many types of cells including blood cells.
What are the potential risks of this treatment?
The waste product Urea from the liver cells into the
blood plasma and to the kidneys for excretion.
32. What features does a single-celled organism like
Ameoba have to ensure sufficient transport of
molecules into and out of the cell to meet the needs of
the organism?
33. Why do most multicellular organisms need an
exchange surface and a transport system?
34. Describe how the mammalian lungs are adapted for
efficient gas exchange.
35. Describe how fish gills are adapted for efficient gas
exchange.
35. Describe how the small intestine is adapted for
efficient absorption of the products of digestion such as
glucose and amino acids.
36. Describe how the roots and leaves in plants are
adapted for exchanging materials.
37. Describe osmosis.
1. Use a cork borer to cut five potato cylinders of the same diameter.
2. Use the knife to trim off any potato skin on each potato cylinder. Then
trim each potato cylinder so that they are all the same length.
3. Accurately measure the mass of each potato cylinder.
4. Accurately measure the length of each cylinder.
5. Measure 10 cm3 of each concentration of sugar or salt solution and put
into boiling tubes. Label each boiling tube clearly.
6. Measure 10 cm3 of the distilled water and put into the fifth boiling
tube. Label the boiling tube clearly.
7. Add one potato cylinder to each boiling tube.
8. Leave the potato cylinders in the boiling tubes for a chosen amount of
time.
9. Remove the potato cylinders from the boiling tubes and carefully blot
them dry with the paper towels.
10. Measure the new mass and length of each potato cylinder again
Calculate the change in mass and length of each potato cylinder.
Record your results in your table.
Calculate the percentage change in mass and length of each potato cylinder and
record your results in your table.
Write a paragraph to state what has happened and how this relates to the theory
of osmosis in cells.

43. Describe active transport.
Moves substances from a more dilute solution to a
more concentrated solution (against a concentration
gradient). This requires energy from respiration.
