Questão 8

Questão
Which of the following is the best explanation as to why there is a limit to the size that cells can grow to?
Responda
  • A Bigger cells require more nutrients and energy to survive.
  • B The bigger a cell, the smaller its surface area to volume ratio and the slower materials diffuse into or out of the cell.
  • C Even with cell walls, cells cannot support themselves once they get bigger than a certain size.
  • D One cell can only perform limited functions, it is better to have many cells with different types of cells performing different functions.

Questão 9

Questão
"Active transport" is the movement of:
Responda
  • A molecules from a region of their higher concentration to a region of their lower concentration.
  • B particles from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration using energy from respiration.
  • C urine by relaxation of a sphincter muscle in the bladder.
  • D water through a partially permeable membrane from a more dilute to a more concentrated solution.

Questão 10

Questão
The diagram shows an experiment to demonstrate the movement of molecules. After one hour, the water in the beaker turned red. What is the most likely reason for this colour change?
Responda
  • A Molecules of red ink move through the membrane by diffusion.
  • B Molecules of red ink move through the membrane by osmosis.
  • C Molecules of water move through the membrane by diffusion.
  • D Molecules of water move through the membrane by osmosis.

Questão
The diagram shows water and sugar molecules on either side of a partially permeable membrane. What happens during osmosis?
Responda
  • A More sugar molecules pass through the membrane from X to Y than from Y to X.
  • B More sugar molecules pass through the membrane from Y to X than from X to Y.
  • C More water molecules pass through the membrane from X to Y than from Y to X.
