Food Testing
Uncle Benedict eats nothing but sugar – testing for sugars
Uncle Biuret (he’s French) eats only meat (protein) – testing for protein
The Cell Cycle
Green - Growth
Dogs – DNA Replication
Can – Chromosomes condense
Mate – Middle (chromosomes line up at middle)
Producing – Pull apart (chromosomes separate to opposite ends of cell
Tiny – Two nuclei form
Dogs – Daughter cells form (identical)
The Heart, veins vs arteries
Vein or Tovvards - blood in
AA - Arteries Away
Why does increased heart rate allow more exercise = OGRE
O – Oxygen (more)
G – Glucose (more)
R – Respiration (more)
E – Energy (more for muscle contraction)
Spread of Disease
DAFT – Droplets, Animals, Food, Touch
First line of defence
CHASM – Cilia, Hairs (nose), Acid, Skin, Mucus
Effect of damage to leaves
Chloroplast (less), light (less), photosynthesis (less), glucose (less), energy (less), respiration (less), growth (less) via proteinsynthesis
Uses of Glucose in Plants
OSCAR
Oils and lipids
Starch
Cellulose for cell walls
Amino acids (by reacting with nitrogen)
Respiration
RRR+M
RR - Reliability – repeatability AND remove anomalies and calculate mean -
AA
AA - Accuracy – apparatus (use better e.g. digital instrument) - AA
Precision – decrease intervals, make more measurements, repeat.
Hypothesis sentence structure:
As X changes, y changes because…
X = independent variable, y = dependent variable.
