How do scientists summarize the process of photosynthesis? Key Terms transmission reflection absorption accessory pigment Target Reading Skill Previewing Visuals Preview Figure 9. Then write two questions that you have about the diagram in a graphic organizer like the one below. As you read, answer your questions. What Colors Make Up Sunlight? 1. Glue a piece of white paper onto the inside bottom of a shoe box. 2. Place the box on its side near a window or outside in a sunny area. 3. Hold a mirror in front of the open side of the box. Adjust the mirror until it reflects sunlight onto the paper in the box. CAUTION: Do not direct the sunlight into your eyes. 4. Place a prism between the mirror and the box. Adjust the location of the prism so that sunlight passes through the prism. 5. Describe what you see on the paper in the box. Think It Over Observing What did you learn about light from this activity? The Photosynthesis Process Q. How is sunlight involved in photosynthesis? A. Q. The year was T. W. Engelmann, a German biologist, was at work in his laboratory. He peered into the microscope at some algae on a slide. The microscope had a prism located between the light source and the algae. As Engelmann watched the algae, he saw gas bubbles forming in the water around some of the cells. Curiously, no gas bubbles formed around other cells. Although Engelmann did not know it at the time, his experiment provided a clue about how light is involved in photosynthesis. To understand what Engelmann observed, you need to know more about the nature of light. FIGURE 7 The Visible Spectrum When white light passes through a prism, you can see that it is made up of the colors of the rainbow. 114 A Sample page from Science Explorer 8 small book series Life From Bacteria to Plants Animals Cells and Heredity Human Biology and Health Environmental Science Earth Inside Earth Earth s Changing Surface Earth s Waters Weather and Climate Astronomy Physical Chemical Building Blocks Chemical Interactions Motion, Forces, and Energy Electricity and Magnetism Sound and Light

Skills Focus observing, predicting, communicating Materials damp piece of cellulose sponge damp piece of natural sponge damp piece of foam sponge balance large bowl of tap water graduated cylinder beaker paper towel Procedure 1. Copy the data table on a separate sheet. 2. Examine the size of the pores in each sponge. Record your observations. 3. Make a prediction about which sponge will absorb the most water. Record your prediction and give a reason. 4. Place a damp piece of cellulose sponge on a balance and measure its mass. Record the mass in the data table. Remove the sponge from the balance. 5. Repeat Step 4 with the natural sponge and then the foam sponge. 6. Submerge the cellulose sponge in a bowl of water. Squeeze it several times to remove all air bubbles. Release the sponge and let it absorb water. Then remove the sponge and place it in the beaker. 7. Squeeze out as much water as possible from the sponge into the beaker. (Hint: Squeeze and twist the sponge until no more drops of water come out.) 8. Pour the water from the beaker into the graduated cylinder. Measure the volume of water and record the volume in the data table. Pour the water from the graduated cylinder back into the bowl. Dry the graduated cylinder and beaker with a paper towel. Type of Sponge Cellulose Natural Foam Data Table Volume of Mass of Damp Size of Absorbed Water Sponge Pores Total Per Gram (ml) (ml/g) 9. Repeat Steps 6 8 using the natural sponge and then the foam sponge. When you are finished, squeeze all the water from your sponges, and return them to your teacher. 10. Calculate the volume of water absorbed per gram of sponge, using this formula: Volume of absorbed water Volume absorbed Mass of damp sponge per gram Analyze and Conclude 1. Observing Which sponge absorbed the most water per gram of sponge? The least? Was your prediction confirmed? 2. Drawing Conclusions What can you conclude about the relationship between pore size and the ability of the sponge to absorb water? 3. Predicting How would the volume of absorbed water change if each of the sponges had twice the mass of the sponges you studied? Explain. 4. Communicating Natural sponges can cost more than cellulose and foam sponges. Consider that information and the results of your investigation. Which sponge would you recommend to consumers for absorbing water spills? Explain your choice. Design an Experiment Design an experiment to test the prediction you made in Question 3 above. Write your hypothesis as an "If then " statement. Obtain your teacher s permission before carrying out your investigation. 18 B Sample page from Science Explorer 9

23 distributed by Pearson on behalf of Edexcel Ages UK Years US Grades 9-10 Student Book Section B: Some Essential Background Chemistry Chapter 10: Making Salts The importance of knowing whether a salt is soluble or insoluble in water You will remember that acids react with carbonates to give a salt, carbon dioxide and water. In the case of calcium carbonate (for example, marble chips) reacting with dilute hydrochloric acid, calcium chloride solution is produced. CaCO3(s) + 2HCl(aq) CaCl2(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l) End of Chapter Checklist This chapter looks at some of the practical problems in making pure samples of salts in the lab. Remember that a salt is what is formed when the hydrogen in an acid is replaced by a metal. For example, sulfates come from sulfuric acid, chlorides from hydrochloric acid, and nitrates from nitric acid. You should now be able to: Figure 10.1 Calcium carbonate reacting with dilute hydrochloric acid. Figure 10.2 Calcium carbonate not reacting with dilute sulfuric acid. The problem is that the calcium sulfate produced in the reaction is almost insoluble in water. As soon as the reaction starts, a layer of calcium sulfate is formed around the calcium carbonate, stopping any further reaction. layer of insoluble calcium sulphate acid particles can t get at the calcium carbonate original calcium carbonate Figure 10.3 The reaction between calcium carbonate and sulfuric acid. Any attempt to produce an insoluble salt from the reaction between a solid and a liquid will fail for this reason. Chapter 10: Making Salts If you try the reaction between calcium carbonate and dilute sulfuric acid, nothing much seems to happen if you use large marble chips. You will get a few bubbles when you first add the acid, but the reaction soon stops. Chapter 10: Making Salts Soluble and insoluble salts know which salts are soluble and which are insoluble in water know which salts can be made by this method describe how to make pure, dry samples of insoluble salts using precipitation reactions give practical details of how you would make a pure, dry sample of a salt from the reaction between a suitable solid (metal, metal oxide, metal hydroxide or metal carbonate) and an acid describe how to make pure, dry samples of sodium, potassium or ammonium salts using a titration method write ionic equations for precipitation reactions. Questions 1 Sort the following compounds into two lists those that are soluble in water, and those that are insoluble. 4 Suggest solutions that could be mixed together to make each of the following insoluble salts. In each case, write the ionic equation for the reaction you choose. sodium chloride, lead(ii) sulfate, zinc nitrate, calcium carbonate, iron(iii) sulfate, lead(ii) chloride, potassium sulfate, copper(ii) carbonate, silver chloride, aluminium nitrate, barium sulfate, ammonium chloride, magnesium nitrate, calcium sulfate, sodium phosphate, nickel(ii) carbonate, chromium(iii) hydroxide, potassium dichromate(vi) a) silver chloride b) calcium carbonate c) lead(ii) sulfate d) lead(ii) chloride 2 a) Describe in detail the preparation of a pure, dry sample of copper(ii) sulfate crystals, CuSO4 5H2O, starting from copper(ii) oxide. You may have noticed that the bottle in the right-hand photograph is labelled as sulphuric acid rather than sulfuric acid. You must expect to come across both versions of this name. Sulphuric is the traditional English spelling. 5 Describe in detail the preparation of a pure, dry sample of barium carbonate. Write the ionic equation for the reaction you use. b) Write full equations for (i) the reaction producing copper(ii) sulfate solution, (ii) the crystallisation reaction. 6 There are three main methods of making salts: A reacting an acid with an excess of a suitable solid 3 a) Read the following description of a method for making sodium sulfate crystals, Na2SO4 10H2O, and then explain the reasons for each of the underlined phrases or sentences. How quickly the reaction stops may well depend on the size of the marble chips (because that affects the surface area), the concentration of the acid, the volume of acid added, and the amount the flask is shaken. This would make an interesting investigation particularly if you could then explain any pattern in your results. 81 B using a titration C using a precipitation reaction. For each of the following salts, write down the letter of the appropriate method, and name the substances you would react together. You should state whether they are used as solids or solutions. Write an equation (full or ionic as appropriate) for each reaction. 25 cm3 of sodium carbonate solution was transferred to a conical flask using a pipette, and a few drops of methyl orange were added. Dilute sulfuric acid was run in from a burette until the solution became orange. The volume of acid added was noted. That same volume of dilute sulfuric acid was added to a fresh 25 cm3 sample of sodium carbonate solution in a clean flask, but without the methyl orange. The mixture was evaporated until a sample taken on the end of a glass rod crystallised on cooling in the air. The solution was left to cool. The crystals formed were separated from the remaining solution and dried. a) zinc sulfate b) barium sulfate c) potassium nitrate (nitric acid is HNO3) d) copper(ii) nitrate e) lead(ii) chromate(vi) (a bright yellow insoluble solid; chromate(vi) ions have the formula CrO42 ). b) Write equations for (i) the reaction producing sodium sulfate solution, (ii) the crystallisation reaction.

You may not be awarded a mark if you just draw the triangle. broken heat element touching metal casing L N fuse L N earth fuse blows Worked example current passes through earth wire rather than user fuse blows before person touches kettle If a 230 V television takes a current of 3 A, calculate its power. P=I V P = 3 A 230 V P = 690 W Example 2 Calculate the correct fuse that should be used for a 230 V, 1 kw electric hair dryer (1k W = 1000 W). Fig_0308_A Figure 7.8 The earth wire provides protection when electrical appliances develop a fault. Chapter 7: Mains Electricity Example 1 P=I V Earth wires and double insulation Chapter 7: Mains Electricity Many appliances have a metal casing. This should be connected to the earth wire so that if the live wire becomes frayed or breaks and comes into contact with the casing the earth wire provides a low-resistance path for the current. This current is likely to be large enough to blow the fuse and turn the circuit off. Without the earth wire anyone touching the casing of the faulty appliance would receive a severe electric shock as current passed through them to earth (Figure 7.8). Switches The correct fuse for this hair dryer is therefore a 5 A fuse. The power of an appliance (P) tells you how much energy it converts each second. This means that the total energy (E) converted by an appliance is equal to its power multiplied by the length of time (in seconds) the appliance is being used. energy, E (in joules) = power, P (in watts) time, t (in seconds) E=P t since P = I V E=I V t Worked example a) E = P t E = 60 W 20 s voltage (V) dc supply + L N time (s) E = 1200 J or 1.2 kj b) E = P t E = 60 W 5 60 s E = J or 18 kj ac supply N Figure 7.15 How thefig_0313 voltage of an ac supply compares with that of a dc supply. Figure 7.10 The switch in a circuit should be in the live wire. Alternating current and direct current The mains electricity supply provides alternating current (ac), which means that the flow of electricity is constantly changing direction. This is because of the way that electricity generators work you will find out more about this in Chapter 22. Cells and batteries provide direct current (dc), where the current is always in the same direction. Figure 7.15 shows how the voltage of an ac supply compares with a dc supply. 62 Fig_0310_A Sample pages from Edexcel IGCSE Physics Student Book Example 3 Calculate the energy converted by a 60 W bulb that is turned on for a) 20 s, and b) 5 min. With the switch open and connected into the live wire, the appliance is isolated. The user is safe from electric shock. L 1000 W 230 V Calculating the total energy converted by an appliance Switches in mains circuits should always be included in the live wire so that when the switch is open no electrical energy can reach an appliance. If the switch is included in the neutral wire, electrical energy can still enter an appliance, and could possibly cause an electric shock (Figure 7.10). When the switch is connected into the neutral wire, the appliance is not isolated. The user is not safe from electric shock. P V I = 4.3 A Some modern appliances now use casings made from an insulator such as plastic rather than from metal. If all the electrical parts of an appliance are insulated in this way, so that they cannot be touched by the user, the appliance is said to have double insulation. Appliances that have double insulation use a two-wire flex. There is no need for an earth wire. Figure 7.9 This plastic kettle has double insulation which means that there is no need for an earth wire. I= I= 64 21

Assessment statements are reiterated at the start of each section, showing which areas in the curriculum are covered. Weblinks support Aim 7 in encouraging students to use ICT skills in the study of their subject. Full-colour diagrams complement the text in illustrating key concepts. 3 DNA REPLICATION Interesting fact Helicase may catalyse the unzipping of DNA at a rate measured in hundreds of base pairs per second. Key Fact DNA must replicate before any cell divides. This means that DNA replication precedes binary fission for prokayotes, mitosis for many eukaryotic cells and meiosis for eukaryotic gamete producing cells. Helicase (currently at about the half-way point in this image) would have started on the left and be moving towards the right. 3.4 DNA replication Assessment statements Explain DNA replication in terms of unwinding the double helix and separation of the strands by helicase, followed by formation of the new complementary strands by DNA polymerase Explain the significance of complementary base pairing in the conservation of the base sequence of DNA State that DNA replication is semiconservative. DNA replication involves unzipping Cells must prepare for a cell division by doubling the DNA content of the cell in a process called DNA replication. This process doubles the quantity of DNA and also ensures that there is an exact copy of each DNA molecule. You should try to picture the environment in which the DNA is actually replicating. This is the environment of the nucleus during interphase of the cell cycle. During interphase, there is a nuclear membrane which separates the fluid of the nucleus (nucleoplasm) from the cytoplasm. The DNA is in the form of chromatin (not tightly coiled chromosomes). Among the variety of molecules present in the nucleoplasm there are two types that are particularly important for the process of DNA replication; they are: enzymes needed for replication these include helicase and a group of enzymes collectively called DNA polymerase; free nucleotides these are nucleotides that are not yet bonded and are found floating freely in the nucleoplasm, some contain adenine, some thymine, some cytosine and some guanine. One of the early events of DNA replication is the separation of the double helix into two single strands. You should remember that the double helix is held together by the hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs (A and T, C and G). The enzyme that initiates this separation into two single strands is called helicase. Helicase begins at a point in or at the end of a DNA molecule and moves one complementary base pair at a time, breaking the hydrogen bonds so the double-stranded DNA molecule becomes two separate strands. The unpaired nucleotides on each of these single strands can now be used as a template to help create two double-stranded DNA molecules identical to the original. Some people use the analogy of a zipper for this process. When you pull on a zipper, the slide mechanism is like helicase. The separation of the two sides of the DNA molecule are like the two opened sides of a zipper (see Figure 13). Figure 3.13 The first step of DNA replication is helicase unzipping the doublestranded DNA molecule forming a section with two single strands. Formation of two complementary strands As shown in Figure 13, once DNA has become unzipped, the nitrogenous bases on each of the single strands are unpaired. In the environment of the nucleoplasm, there are many free-floating nucleotides. These nucleotides are available to form complementary pairs with the single-stranded nucleotides of the unzipped molecule. This does not happen in a random fashion. A free nucleotide locates on one opened strand at one end and then a second nucleotide can come in to join the first. This will require that these two nucleotides become covalently bonded together as they are the beginning of a new strand. The formation of a covalent bond between two adjoining nucleotides is catalysed by one of the DNA polymerase enzymes that is important in this process. A third nucleotide then joins the first two and the process continues in a repetitive way for many nucleotides. The other unzipped strand also acts as a template for the formation of another new strand. This strand forms in a similar fashion, but in the opposite direction to the first strand. Notice that one strand is replicating in the same direction as helicase is moving and the other strand is replicating in the opposite direction. Significance of complementary base pairing The pattern of DNA replication ensures that two identical copies of DNA are produced from one. Figure 14 illustrates a very small section of DNA replicating. Notice that in the area where replication has already P taken place, the two strands are absolutely identical G Helicase to each other. This is because the original double stranded molecule had complementary pairs of C A C T A C nucleotides and it was the complementary nucleotides G T G A T G that used the unzipped single-stranded areas as templates. P This also means that no DNA molecule is ever C completely new. Every DNA molecule after replication consists of a strand that was old now paired with a strand that is new. DNA replication is described as a semiconservative process because half of a pre-existing DNA molecule is always conserved (saved).

For example, one can argue that there never is such a thing as a new DNA molecule. How long has your DNA been in you? In your family lineage? 8 Most DNA mutations occur during DNA replication. Suggest how a mutation called a deletion could occur. Suggest how a mutation called a substitution could occur.

Unit 5 specimen paper 1 Muscle paralysis is common in many cases of poisoning, often as a result of interference with chemical transmission from the motor neurones to the muscles at the neuromuscular junctions. Studies of venomous snakes, such as the Prugasti krait (Bungarus fasciatus) have played a part in the investigation of this chemical transmission. (a) Describe the normal sequence of events that occurs within a muscle fibre after stimulation of a neuromuscular junction. (5) (b) Bungaratoxin can be isolated from the venom of the Prugasti krait. In minute amounts, it can cause paralysis of the diaphragm and intercostal muscles by its effects at synapses. Suggest how bungaratoxin causes these effects.

(3) Total 7 marks (Edexcel GCE Biology (Salters-Nuffield) Advanced Unit 2 June 2005) 78 Sample pages from Edexcel GCE Biology: AS Revision Guide Remember that muscles can t stretch themselves. It is the pull created by the contraction of the antagonistic muscle that stretches a muscle when it is in a relaxed state. The prefix myo- refers to muscle and sarco- to flesh (i.e. muscle) so specialist terms starting with myoor sarco- will refer to structures within muscles. A typical synovial joint. Skeletal muscles are those attached to bones and are normally arranged in antagonistic pairs. This means that there are pairs of muscles which pull in opposite directions. Flexors contract to flex, or bend a joint, e.g. biceps in the arm; extensors contract to extend, or straighten a joint, e.g. triceps in the arm. Each skeletal muscle is a bundle of millions of muscle cells called fibres. Each muscle cell may be several centimetres long and contains several nuclei. It contains many myofibrils which are made up of the fibrous proteins actin (thin filaments) and myosin (thick filaments). The cell surface membrane of a muscle cell is known as the sarcolemma. The sarcoplasmic reticulum is a specialised endoplasmic reticulum which can store and release calcium ions. The cytoplasm inside a muscle cell is called the sarcoplasm. The specialised synapse (see page 63, Topic 8) between neurones and muscle cells is called the neuromuscular junction. The sliding filament theory of muscle contraction The functional unit of a muscle fibre is called a sarcomere. When the muscle contracts the thin actin filaments move between the thick myosin filaments, shortening the length of the sarcomere and therefore shortening the length of the muscle. A B myosin one sarcomere actin Examiner tips help students avoid common pitfalls. 44 The arrangement of actin and myosin filaments in a sarcomere when relaxed (A) and contracted (B).
