Use the key to identify the plant.
The diagram shows a plant cell.
In which labelled part of the cell is sugar made?
Why do some root cells have root hairs?
The table shows the concentration of gases in a blood vessel and in an alveolus.
Which row shows the conditions that cause a gas produced in respiration to diffuse from the blood vessel into the alveolus?
[Table_1]
Which part of a plant root hair is partially permeable?
The table shows the results of food tests carried out on a fruit.

An experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of pH on enzyme action. The graph shows the results. What are the labels for the x-axis and the y-axis?
An experiment is set up as shown.
The green indicator turns yellow when the concentration of carbon dioxide increases. The green indicator turns blue when the concentration of carbon dioxide decreases.
After several hours, the indicator in test-tube X turned blue. The indicator in test-tube Y remained green.
Which process caused the colour change?
Why do plants need nitrate ions?
In which part of the alimentary canal do chemical digestion and mechanical digestion take place?
The diagram shows part of the alimentary canal.
Where is most water absorbed?
A celery stalk was placed in a beaker which contained a red stain. After 24 hours, the red stain appeared at the top of the celery stalk.
Which structures stained red?
A student is investigating the effect of temperature on the rate of transpiration. Which environmental conditions should be kept constant during this investigation?

The diagram shows the human heart. In which order does blood pass through the chambers during a complete circuit of the body after it returns from the lungs?
The diagrams show some components of the blood of a mammal.
Which component causes the blood to start clotting?
The body produces mucus as a defence against diseases.
What type of defence is stomach acid? [Table_1]
A sample of expired air is collected in a gas jar. Another gas jar contains normal atmospheric air.
A lighted candle is placed inside each gas jar as shown. The time taken for each flame to go out is measured. As the candles burn they use up the oxygen available in the jar.
The table shows the results of this experiment.
[Table_1]
What is an explanation of the difference between the results in jars X and Y?
Which row describes anaerobic respiration?
[Table_1]
The diagram shows the excretory system.
What is structure X?
The diagram shows structures in a reflex arc.
What is X?

The graph shows the number of alcohol-related deaths in men and women between the years 2001 and 2005 in one country.
Which conclusion is supported by the data in the graph?
The diagram shows a potato tuber that developed from the stem of a parent potato plant. Three shoots are starting to grow from the tuber.
How do the genotypes of the shoots compare with the genotypes of the tuber and of the parent?
