05/02/23DiffusionDiffusionDiffusion is when something travels from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. For example, consider the scent from a hamburger…
The “scent particles” from this hamburger are in high
concentration here:
Eventually they will “diffuse” out into this
area of low concentration:
Oxygen passes into cells by diffusion
05/02/23Diffusion SummaryDiffusion SummaryDiffusion is when particles spread from an area of high concentration to an area of ___ concentration. The particles move along a “concentration _____” and this process takes no _____ (it’s a “passive” process”). Diffusion can be accelerated by increasing the _______ of the particles, which makes them move _______.
Words – faster, low, gradient, temperature, energy

The GLUCOSE produced by photosynthesis is used by the plant for _______ (through ____________). It is stored in the plant as ___________.
Words – respiration, starch, water, oxygen, energy
Photosynthesis equationsPhotosynthesis equations
05/02/23Three factors can affect Three factors can affect photosynthesis:photosynthesis:
1. Temperature – the best temperature is about 300C – anything above 400C will slow photosynthesis right down
2. CO2 – if there is more carbon dioxide photosynthesis will happen quicker
3. Light – if there is more light photosynthesis happens faster

1. TemperaturePhotosynthesis is controlled by enzymes – these are destroyed at temperatures above 400C
2. Carbon dioxide
3. LightPhotosynthesis increases at first but is then limited by a lack of increase in temp or CO2

05/02/23The Carbon The Carbon CycleCycle
CO2 in air 1. CO2 is taken
in by plants for photosynthesis and turned into carbohydrates
2. Plants release CO2 through respiration
3. The carbon taken in by plants is then eaten by animals
5. Animals (and plants) die and their remains are fed on by microbes and detritus feeders
6. These microbes also release CO2 through respiration
4. Animals release CO2 through respiration
05/02/23Introduction to EnzymesIntroduction to EnzymesEnzymes are biological catalysts. They help the
reactions that occur in our bodies by controlling the rate of reaction.
An enzyme is basically a protein molecule made up of long chains of amino acids. These molecules are then “folded” to create a certain shape:
The enzyme’s shape helps another molecule “fit” into it:
This shape can be destroyed by high temperatures or the wrong pH:
Enzyme Substrate
05/02/23Enzyme use in natureEnzyme use in nature
Cells use glucose to generate energy – this process is called “respiration”. Respiration happens in mitochodria and is catalysed by enzymes.
Photosynthesis is catalysed by enzymes in the cells.

the liver and stored in the gall bladder. It has 2 functions:
1) It neutralises stomach acid and produces alkaline conditions for enzymes to work in
2) It emulsifies (“breaks down” fats:

05/02/23Industrial uses of Industrial uses of enzymesenzymes
1) Enzymes are used in washing powders to help digest fats and proteins in food stains. Biological washing powders will only work on 400C or lower.2) Enzymes are used in baby foods to “pre-digest” the proteins.
3) Enzymes are used to convert starch into sugar which can then be used in food.
4) Conversion of glucose into fructose – glucose and fructose are “isomers” (they have the same chemical formula), but fructose is sweeter.

Wow it’s hot!
Also, temperature sensors in the skin detect the heat and send information to the brain.

05/02/23Controlling Blood Sugar Controlling Blood Sugar levelslevelsWe need glucose in our bodies to help our cells to respire
and produce energy. What happens if we have too much glucose?
If blood sugar is too high the pancreas releases
insulin
The liver then converts glucose into insoluble
glycogen and is removed from the blood
05/02/23DiabetesDiabetesDiabetes is a ________ in which a person’s blood sugar (i.e. glucose) level may rise to a _______ level. This is because the ______ doesn’t produce enough _________.
Diabetes can be treated by __________ carefully or by injecting extra insulin when needed. Diabetics have to test their blood sugar level before they decide how much insulin to _______ themselves with.
Words – insulin, disease, inject, dangerous, eating, pancreas
05/02/23Modern GeneticsModern GeneticsGuten tag! My name is Gregor
Mendel. I am the father of modern genetics because of the work I did on
pea plants in 1865…
Take two plants; one which is pure-bred for tallness and one pure-bred for shortness, and cross them:
X
Mendel’s experiment:
05/02/23Modern GeneticsModern Genetics
All the plants produced were tall.
Now cross two of these plants…
3 out of every 4 plants were tall, leading Mendel to hypothesise that “for every characteristic there must be two determiners”
05/02/23Modern GeneticsModern GeneticsAchtung! Unfortunately, nobody
knew about chromosomes or genes when I published my findings so no
one believed me until after my death, when more powerful
microscopes were available.
05/02/23MitosisMitosis
Each daughter cell has the same number of chromosomes and
genetic information as the parent.
05/02/23MeiosisMeiosis
Each daughter cell has half the number of
chromosomes of the parent.
05/02/23Mitosis vs. MeiosisMitosis vs. MeiosisMitosis:1. Used for growth and repair
of cells2. Used in asexual
reproduction3. Cells with identical number
of chromosomes and genetic information are produced
Meiosis:1. Used to produce gametes for
sexual reproduction2. Each daughter cell has half
the number of chromosomes of the parent
05/02/23Sexual ReproductionSexual ReproductionThe human egg and sperm cell (“GAMETES”) contain 23 chromosomes each and are created by meiosis.
When fertilisation happens the gametes fuse together to make a single cell called a ZYGOTE. The zygote has 46 chromosomes (23 pairs) and continues to grow through mitosis.

Some facts: - Made up of paired bases - Contain instructions on what a cell does, how the organism should work etc - The instructions are in the form of a code - The code is made up from the four bases that hold the
strands together - The bases represent the order in which amino acids are
assembled to make proteins - Everyone (apart from identical twins) has different DNA
and people can be identified by “DNA finger printing”

2) A homozygous long-tailed cat is crossed with a homozygous short-tailed cat and produces a litter of 9 long-tailed kittens. Show the probable offspring which would be produced if two of these kittens were mated and describe the characteristics of the offspring (hint: work out the kitten’s genotype first).
05/02/23Inherited diseasesInherited diseases1) Cystic fibrosis – a disease that causes thick and sticky mucus to coat the lungs, gut and pancreas. It’s caused by recessive alleles:
2) Huntingdon's disease – a disease of the nervous system that causes shaking and eventually dementia. It’s caused by a dominant allele:
Embryos can be screened for alleles that cause these diseases before birth.

05/02/23Stem CellsStem CellsA while ago we considered examples of specialised cells:
White blood cell
Egg cell (ovum)
Ciliated epithelial cell
Nerve cell (neurone)
A “stem cell” is a cell that hasn’t yet become specialised and can be found in embryos or bone marrow. These cells can be used to treat certain conditions but the use of these cells is very controversial.
05/02/23Research tasksResearch tasksTaskPresent an argument concerning one of these two topics:
1) Use of stem cells from embryos in medical research
2) The use of embryo screening to identify deformities
