lipids in energy storage energy stores
3.3.5 Draw and label a simple Can be inferred from pages 87 and 88.

molecular structure of sufficient to show the complementary base pairs of A-T
DNA and G-C held together by hydrogen bonds and the
sugar-phosphate backbones. The number of hydrogen
bonds between pairs and details of purine/pyrimidines
are not required.

(b) DNA;
RNA polymerase;
(ribose) nucleotides / ribonucleotides / RNA
nucleotides;

3.5.3 Describe the genetic Pg 314
code in terms of codons
composed of triplets of
bases.
3.6.3 Explain the effects of Pg. 154 8. Which graph shows the relationship between the
temperature, pH, and substrate concentration and the rate of an enzyme
substrate concentration I did not find a mention in Campbell of how substrate controlled reaction?
on enzyme activity concentration affects enzyme activity.
May 2006 PM (SL)
4(b) Explain the effects of either changing
temperature or pH on enzyme activity.
[3]
(b) Either, temperature: [3 max]
each enzyme has an optimal temperature for its
maximum activity;
(small) temperature increases result in increased
enzyme activity to a
point/optimum;
increase activity due to increased movement of
molecules / increased kinetic
energy or conversely stated;
temperature increases above the optimum causes
(progressive) loss of activity due
to denaturation/shape changes
