biology IB exam study guide questions
with complete answers

Outline the cell theory exceptions - .......🔷ANSWERS🔶......✔✔ Striated muscle: Extremely long
muscle fibres (up to 300mm long) & multi-nucleated

Giant algae: Extremely long (up to 100mm) but unicellular and one nucleus

Aseptate fungi: Continuos cytoplasm & multi-nucleated



Explain how stem cells are used to treat

Stargardt's and another illness - .......🔷ANSWERS🔶......✔✔ Treated by replacing dead cells in the
retina with functioning ones derived from stem cells



Discuss the advantages and disadvantages

of stem cells - .......🔷ANSWERS🔶......✔✔



Distinguish between prokaryotic and

eukaryotic cells - .......🔷ANSWERS🔶......✔✔ Eukaryotic cells are cells containing membrane-
bound organelles and are the basis for both unicellular and multicellular organisms. In contrast,
prokaryotic cells do not have any membrane-bound organelles and are always part of unicellular
organisms.



Outline the stages of Mitosis - .......🔷ANSWERS🔶......✔✔ Prophase:

DNA supercoils and chromosomes condense (becoming visible under microscope)

Chromosomes are comprised of genetically identical sister chromatids (joined at a centromere)

Paired centrosomes move to the opposite poles of the cell and form microtubule spindle fibres

The nuclear membrane breaks down and the nucleus dissolves



Metaphase:

Microtubule spindle fibres from both centrosomes connect to the centromere of each chromosome

,Microtubule depolymerisation causes spindle fibres to shorten in length and contract

This causes chromosomes to align along the centre of the cell (equatorial plane or metaphase plate)



Anaphase:

Continued contraction of the spindle fibres causes genetically identical sister chromatids to separate

Once the chromatids separate, they are each considered an individual chromosome in their own
right

The genetically identical chromosomes move to the opposite poles of the cell



Telophase:

Once the two chromosome sets arrive at the poles, spindle fibres dissolve

Chromosomes decondense (no longer visible under light microscope)

Nuclear membranes reform around each chromosome set

Cytokinesis occurs concurrently, splitting the cell into two



Outline the Cell cycle phases, describe the

occurrences in each - .......🔷ANSWERS🔶......✔✔ Interphase

The stage in the development of a cell between two successive divisions

This phase of the cell cycle is a continuum of three distinct stages:

G1 - First intermediate gap stage in which the cell grows and prepares for DNA replication

S - Synthesis stage in which DNA is replicated

G2 - Second intermediate gap stage in which the cell finishes growing and prepares for cell division



M phase

The period of the cell cycle in which the cell and contents divide to create two genetically identical
daughter cells

This phase is comprised of two distinct stages:

Mitosis - Nuclear division, whereby DNA (as condensed chromosomes) is separated into two
identical nuclei

, Cytokinesis - Cytoplasmic division, whereby cellular contents are segregated and the cell splits into
two



Outline the process of Transcription - .......🔷ANSWERS🔶......✔✔ 1. RNA polymerase binds to
promoter region on a gene.

2. Section of DNA uncoils into 2 strands with exposed bases. Antisense strand acts as template.

3. Free nucleotides are attracted to their complementary bases.

4. RNA polymerase joins adjacent nucleotides to form phosphodiester bonds.



Explain DNA replication and translation - .......🔷ANSWERS🔶......✔✔ The replication of DNA is
semi-conservative and depends on complementary base pairing



Helicase unwinds the double helix and separates the two strands by breaking hydrogen bonds



DNA polymerase links nucleotides together to form a new strand, using the pre-existing strand as a
template



Transcription is the synthesis of mRNA copied from the DNA base sequences by RNA polymerase



Translation is the synthesis of polypeptides on ribosomes



The amino acid sequence of polypeptides is determined by mRNA according to the genetic code



Codons of three bases on mRNA correspond to one amino acid in a polypeptide



Translation depends on complementary base pairing between codons on mRNA and anticodons on
tRNA
