?
In the phrase 'MRS GREN', what does the 'M' stand for?
Movement.
1 of 15
Which statement describes the job of an enzyme?
The job of an enzyme is to speed up chemical reactions.
2 of 15
Which of the following needs to be constant for enzymes to work?
Temperature.
3 of 15
Rates of reaction increase as the temperature increases. This is because molecules:
Move faster and have more collisions.
4 of 15
What effect does a very high temperature have on an enzyme?
Very high temperature stops an enzyme from working.
5 of 15
What is the name of the chemical that absorbs light energy?
Chlorophyll.
6 of 15
What are the products of photosynthesis?
Glucose and oxygen.
7 of 15
What is the job of cytoplasm in a plant cell?
Produces proteins.
8 of 15
What is diffusion?
The movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
9 of 15
Tomatoes in a greenhouse grow faster if the carbon dioxide concentration is increased. This shows that:
Carbon dioxide concentration must have been a limiting factor.
10 of 15
Aerobic respiration requires:
Oxygen.
11 of 15
What is the word equation for aerobic respiration?
Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water (+ energy)
12 of 15
When is an animal likely to use anaerobic respiration?
When being chased by a predator.
13 of 15
What is the function of a molecule of circular DNA in a bacteria cell?
DNA contains the genetic code for enzymes involved in respiration.
14 of 15
What occurs during the process of 'fermentation'?
