organisational unit capable of independent life. There are many different types of cells which differ in size, shape and function. The similarities and differences between different cell types are used to classify them into smaller groups. Two such groups are prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells.  \nOne feature that can be used to determine whether cells are prokaryotic or eukaryotic would be:  \nA. whether the cell secretes enzymes or not  \nB. whether the cell contains DNA or not  \nC. whether the cell contains organic compounds or not  \nD. whether the cell has membrane bound organelles or not  \nQuestion 2  \nFour unknown organelles have been removed from a cell and a chemical analysis was performed upon them. The results of the analysis are shown in the table below. The presence of a compound in the organelle is indicated by an “x”.  \n\n| Substance | Organelle 1 | Organelle 2 | Organelle 3 | Organelle 4 |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Protein | x | x | x | x |\n| Phospholipid | x | x | x |  |\n| Nucleic Acid |  | x | x | x |\n| Chlorophyll |  |  | x |  |\n| Starch | x |  | x |  |\n\nUse the information above to answer the following questions:  \na. Identify which organelle is most likely to be the site of photosynthesis and provide evidence to justify your answer.  \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n|  |\n\n2 marks  \nb. Only 1 of these organelles is found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Identify which organelle this is and provide evidence to justify your answer.  \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n|  |\n\n2 marks Total 4 marks  \nQuestion 3  \nThe root tip of a plant was sectioned, stained appropriately and viewed under a light microscope. Which of the following is the observer unlikely to see?  \nA. Several cells displaying stages of mitosis  \nB. Thin, cellular extensions around the edge of the root tip  \nC. Chloroplasts in most of the cells  \nD. A cell wall surrounding all of the cells  \nQuestion 4  \nAll living organisms currently belong to one of five taxonomic Kingdoms. In addition to this, there are two divisions in which all organisms belong: Prokaryotic and eukaryotic. This division is due to fundamental differences of the cells themselves.  \na. Distinguish between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, providing an example of each.  \n________________________________________________________________________ __________________  \n__________________________________________________________________________________________  \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n|","cbCailyxWxYPxvoJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailyxWxYPxvoJ","pdf",356633,"English","# Unit 1 – Unity and diversity\n## AREA OF STUDY 1: Cells in action\n## Topic 1 – Cell structure and organisation\n## Topic 2 – Cell functioning: enzymes\n## Topic 3 – Cell functioning: Photosynthesis and cellular respiration\n## Topic 4 – The chemical nature of the cell\n## Topic 5 – Plasma membranes and material transport\n## Topic 6 – Cell replication\n## AREA OF STUDY 2: Functioning organisms\n## Topic 1 – Obtaining and processing nutrients\n## Topic 2 – Circulatory system\n## Topic 3 – Gas exchange systems\n## Topic 4 – Excretory systems\n## Topic 5 – Sexual and asexual reproduction\n## Topic 6 – Classification\n## Topic 7 – Transport in plants\n## SOLUTIONS","[{\"question\":\"How many original examination-style questions are included in this guide?\",\"answer\":\"The guide contains 107 original examination-style questions covering all examinable topics.\"},{\"question\":\"What support is provided after the questions?\",\"answer\":\"It includes full solutions and a marking guide for all questions.\"},{\"question\":\"How is the content organized to help students practice?\",\"answer\":\"Questions are separated into key topic areas within each Area of Study, enabling students to focus on one topic at a time.\"}]","Unit 1 Biology - Examination 1 - Exam Practice Guide | PDF",1789904477,13]
