Frankly, textbook should only be used as a reference, not as a whole study. You need the Syllabus Booklet, and research and see if you can answer all the questions and material that Cambridge outlined for that topic

It shouldn't be that hard

If they say Students should be able to:

a) Distinguish between Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes

Then Search for the answer. If you can answer the questions, then you can do the exam easily
