#1
正面 (问题)

Suggest the purpose of microvilli in the small intestine [2]

背面 (解答)

Microvilli increases surface area to volume ratio of villi of the small intestine; To increase absorption of digested food molecules at a faster rate into the blood stream of the villi;

#2
正面 (问题)

Suggest the effects on the body of having a hole in the heart [2]

背面 (解答)

The hole in the wall between the two atria will result in mixing of deoxygenated blood in the right atrium with the oxygenated blood in the left atrium; Resulting in insufficient/ lesser amount of oxygen transported to other organs and cells; decreasing the rate of respiration and lesser energy released for cellular activities;

#3
正面 (问题)

Explain how water moves out of the leaf from the xylem to the atmosphere. [5]

背面 (解答)

Water molecules enter the leaf from xylem, due to transpiration pull; net movement of water molecules from the cells surrounding xylem to the adjacent mesophyll cells, down a water potential gradient by osmosis; Water molecules move out of the mesophyll cells to form a thin film of moisture lining the surface of the mesophyll cells which evaporates to form water vapour in the intercellular air spaces; Water vapour diffuses from the intercellular air spaces out of the leaf through the stomata into the atmospheric air/ atmosphere; Down a water vapour concentration gradient during transpiration;

#4
正面 (问题)

Explain why having stomata open in daylight is an advantage to plants. [4]

背面 (解答)

Gaseous exchange can take place, carbon dioxide can diffuse into the leaf via opened stomata for increased photosynthesis rate [1] Oxygen can also diffuse out of the leaf [1] Water vapour can diffuse out of the leaf and this help to cool the plant down as it helps removes latent heat [1] The open stomata would allow the transpiration stream/pull to deliver water to be used in photosynthesis and maintain of cell turgor [1]

#5
正面 (问题)

Discuss two social and two ethical implications of using chickens to produce human proteins [4]

背面 (解答)

Social issues: * This method of production could potentially reduce cost of medicine for consumers, making it more affordable * The new proteins in chicken might cause allergy in human when consumed Altered gene to produce human protein in chicken eggs may be toxic or cancer-causing to people who consume it. * May lead to class distinction where only individual with financial means can afford such GM proteins as medication. Ethical issues: * Some people may find it morally wrong to exploit chickens for medical research in genetic engineering * Vegans and vegetarians may find it offensive to consume genes from animal source in these type of medicine.

#6
正面 (问题)

Suggest why having a large proportion of fish in the sea that are 40cm is a good indicator. [3]

背面 (解答)

Having more fishes that are 40 cm and longer indicates that more fishes are in the adult stage and hence are larger; [1] Reflects that fishes are able to survive and reproduce, thus increasing population size; [1] It also indicates a large population of secondary and tertiary consumers; [1] This indirectly shows that there are sufficient food in the ocean ecosystem to support a larger population of high trophic level consumers; [1]
