#1
Front (Question)

advantage of tem rather sem

Back (Answer)

allows internal structures within cells to be seen

#2
Front (Question)

advantage of sem rather than tem

Back (Answer)

creates 3D images

#3
Front (Question)

cell fractionation and ultracentrifugation

Back (Answer)

homogenise cells to break open cells filter to remove cell debris place into ice cold, isotonic, buffer solution ice cold to reduce enzyme activity to reduce damage by enzymes, buffer solution to keep constant pH prevent enzymes denaturing centrifuge at lowest speed, remove supernatant and place into next test tube centrifuge at higher speed

#4
Front (Question)

what synthesises proteins what modifies protein what does aerobic respiration

Back (Answer)

RER/ribosomes golgi mitochondria

#5
Front (Question)

explain appearance of chromosome

Back (Answer)

two sister chromatids attached by a centromere, dna replication has occured

#6
Front (Question)

why push hard downwards not sidewards (root tip squash)

Back (Answer)

to make thin layer of cells so light can pass through, downwards would cause cells to roll over each other, may break chromosomes

#7
Front (Question)

how is anaphase shown?

Back (Answer)

two sister chromatids being pulled apart to opposite poles centromeres of chromatids being pulled apart

#8
Front (Question)

how do bacteria replicate

Back (Answer)

• by binary fission • dna replicates • cytoplasm divides

#9
Front (Question)

explain what is occuring (CO)

Back (Answer)

crossing over has occured between homologous chromosomes

#10
Front (Question)

how to prepare root tip mount

Back (Answer)

place root in hydrochloric acid to halt cell division stain root tip macerate tissue with mounted needle press down coverslip firmly
