It was undoubtedly D as the 0xygen level decreases after bacteria decomposition !!!

thanks all. i also put d.i am correct.
ok 1 more question was there about transport of gulcose throug which blood vessels.
was it artieries and viens or only arteries

I wrote arteries and veins...

had to be arteries and veins. arteries for supply, veins for reabsorption i think
Title: Re: IGCSE Biology

Its arteries and veins because the glucose does NOT pass out through our urine. Hence, this must mean that it is fully reabsorbed.

Bio paper 3
How do you measure the dry mass?
Title: Re: IGCSE Biology
Post by: thukon on June 09, 2009, 05:06:43 am
lol. I D K!!!!  I wrote measure the amount of water uptaken by the radish and then subtract.

Heat the radish in a microwave to remove all the water. When all the water from the radish is lost,it can be weighed.to give the dry mass

For The Dry Mass You Should Have Heat It Gently For A Period Of Time Or Keep It In An Oven Or Like Beside A heater to make as much as of the water to evaporate! dont worry i got it wrong too :)

Title: Re: IGCSE Biology
Post by: thukon on June 09, 2009, 05:21:42 am
But the experiment is continued after the dry mass is weighed each time. If you het it, wont that kill it? And then the experiment cant be continued.

yeah exactly so the heat should be gentle to make sure it doesnt affect any enzymes or the plant itself :)

just to remove the water

i know, so that means nid got t wrong. If you heat it in the microwave, it kills the radish.

i wrote that u should first measured its mass. then attach one to a potometer to measure the average uptake of water on that day and then subtract

What are the 2 reasons why livestock gain weight faster in the shed?
Title: Re: IGCSE Biology
Post by: ADIN on June 09, 2009, 05:29:26 am
i dint have much time for that so I wrote 1) less movement hence food is stored instead of used for respration and 2) less heat loss (no time to elaborate or add a word)

1) less space to move in sheds so not much heat loss
2)insulation in shed against heat loss as weather outside is cold(which could cause heat loss as skin would radiate heat)

I wrote that in the cold, the enzyme activity is slower, so there is slower metabolism. Lol.
But the first one i got right. I wrote less movement, so less excercise, and less weight loss.

1. No Movement So More Energy Can Be Stored Thus Gaining Weight
2. Since It Is Very Cold Outside, They Will Need Much Energy To Maintain a constant body temperature, in the shed it is warm meaning less energy is used and more is stored

Hope This Helps dont forget +rep :)

What did you people write for how you can manufature enzymes from bacteria?
Title: Re: IGCSE Biology
Post by: QuickSilver on June 09, 2009, 05:38:57 am
What did you people write for how you can manufature enzymes from bacteria?
put them in a fermenter and add feed stock which contains important nutrients for the bacteria such as amino acids and glucose, then using motor stirrer you stir the mixture of feedstock enzymes and water, then enzymes respire producing bacteria which if extracelullar can be  easily extracted how ever if they are intaracellular than they have to crushed before they can be used, and to maintain a temperature for the bacteria u should surround the apparatus with a water jacket with a constant circulation of water :)

Hope This Helps :)

Why Is My Rep Negative From Now!! I Just Joined! :(

Not me. You just proves that im probably the only one who got the enzymes thing wrong.  :-[
But it wasnt me who - repped you, i swear. Look at my rep and then feel good about yours.

aaaah ok oops -22 haha

I guess its some lifeless people that have nothing to do other than make problems and ruins people's REP so that it becomes like Theirs :S


Wierdos



Thanks Anyways +REP TO ALL OF YOU :)
