,Example question: explain the importance of surface area to volume ratio as
a factor limiting cell size [7]
as volume of a cell increases, the ratio of its surface area to volume decreases;
food/oxygen enters through the surface of cells;
wastes leave through the surface of cells;
the rate of substance crossing the membrane depends on surface area;
more metabolic activity in a larger cell means more food and oxygen required;
large volume means longer diffusion time;
(large volume) means more wastes produced;
excess heat generated will not be lost efficiently (with low surface area to
volume ratio);
eventually surface area can no longer serve the requirements of the cell;
this critical ratio stimulates mitosis;
(thus) the size of the cell is reduced and kept within size limits;
Example question: state the function of life in Paramecium that is carried
out by: cilia [1]
movement/locomotion OR feeding/nutrition
Example question: state the function of life in Paramecium that is carried
out by: contractile vacuole [1]
homeostasis OR maintain osmotic balance/expels << excess>> water/ maintains
<<cell>> water content
Emergent properties
Emergent properties arise from the
interaction of the component parts
of a complex structure.
Multicellular organisms have
properties that emerge from the
interaction of their cellular
components.
, Differentiation All cells have the same set of genes (identical
genome)
However, a different sequence of genes is
expressed in different cells, which results in
a cell undergoing differentiation and
becoming specialised.
Example question: explain how multicellular organisms develop specialised
tissues [2]
only some genes are expressed in each cell type/tissue;
tissues therefore develop differently/become differentiated;
example of differentiated cell and the function of tissues
