3. ENZYMES
3.1
1.
Enzymes:
They are biological catalysts made of protein. They alter the rate of chemical reactions without themselves being chemically
changed at the end of the reaction.
Catalysts are substances that can change the speed of a chemical reaction.
3.2 Characteristics of enzymes & Factors affecting enzyme activity.
1. Characteristics of enzymes:
They alter or speed up the rates of chemical reactions that occur in a cell.
They remain unchanged after a chemical reaction.
They are specific. "Lock & Key" hypothesis (One enzyme act on one substrate)
They are affected by temperature.
They are affected by pH.
They may need other enzymes to work (Coenzymes).
They catalyse reversible reactions.
2)
B) The enzyme is at its most active state at optimum/optimal temperature (the temperature of which enzyme is
most active).
C) The enzyme activity decreases as it is exposed to temperature above the optimum/optimal temperature. And at
extreme temperature, the enzyme stopped because they are denatured.
pH.
The enzyme activity is increasing from its inactive state as the pH (acidity/alkalinity) increases.
The enzyme is at its most active state at optimum/optimal pH (optimum acidity/optimum alkalinity).
The enzyme activity decrease when it is exposed to above the optimum/optimal pH. And at extreme pH (too
acidic/too alkaline), the enzyme stopped because they are denatured.
Most enzymes work best at neutral pH.
Some enzymes work best at acidic pH.
Some enzymes work best at alkaline pH.

4.1 Photosynthesis
1. Photosynthesis:
It is the process of making food by using carbon dioxide, water, with the help of sunlight and chlorophyll by green plants.
2. Photosynthesis required:
Carbon dioxide(CO 2) Water, Chlorophyll, Sunlight.
Word Equation for photosynthesis: Carbon dioxide + water
Chemical equation for photosynthesis:
6(CO 2) + 6(H2 0)
sunlight
glucose + oxygen.
chlorophyll
sunlight
C 6 H12 O6 + 6 O 2
chlorophyll
,
3. Factors affecting the rate of photosynthesis:
1) Light intensity (The strength of light).
D) This implies that the photosynthetic process is receiving the maximum amount of light it can make use of.
Hence, an increase in light intensity will not increase the rate.
2) Temperature.
A) At low temperature, photosynthesis is inactive.
B) As the temperature increase, the rate of photosynthesis
also increase.
C) At optimum temperature, photosynthesis is in its most
active state.
D) Above optimum temperature, the rate of photosynthesis
decreases.
E) At extreme temperature, photosynthesis stops, because
the enzymes involved in this process are denatured.
3)
A)
B) CO2 concentration cannot exceed 0.03%, because that is the amount of CO 2 in the air.
C) It can only exceed 0.03% under experimental conditions.
4. Importance of photosynthesis:
It reduces the amount of CO2 in the air which is the main cause of global warming.
It produces oxygen to support other organisms for doing respiration.
It produces food which is the source of energy of other organism and itself.

5.1 Food
1. There are 7 types of food:
Carbohydrates. Fats. Proteins. Minerals. Vitamins. Fibre or roughage. Water.
2. Carbohydrates can be divided into two:
Starch (To test for starch, use iodine solution, the colour will change from orange to blue Black if Starch is present).
Glucose (To test for glucose, use benedict's reagent, the colour of the reagent will change if glucose is present).
3. Proteins:
To test for the presence of proteins, use biuret's reagent. If the colour of the reagent changes to violet, it means that proteins
are present.
4. Fats:
Its presence can be tested by using the filter paper experiment or the alcohol test. A grease spot can be seen if fats are present
using the filter paper experiment.
5. Minerals:
They are the inorganic salts which do not provide energy but are indispensable to bodily functions.
Examples of minerals are calcium, phosphorus, sodium, chlorine, potassium and iron.
6.Vitamins:
They are not energy - providing food nor are they body - building food.
They are for maintaining normal health and development.
Lack of vitamins can cause diseases such as scurvy and rickets.
7. Fibre or roughage:
They are the indigestible fibrous materials, e.g. cellulose, present in the diet.
It provides bulk to the intestinal contents and helps peristalsis.
Insufficient of fibre can cause constipation.
8. Water:
They are the essential constituent of protoplasm.
Insufficient of fibre can cause constipation.
9. A balanced diet is a type of diet which consists of all types of food at the correct amount.
10.
11.
Malnutrition (Unbalanced diet):
Obesity - extremely overweight.
Constipation - difficulty to remove faeces.
12. Carbohydrates and fats are the main source of energy. While proteins are used for growth i.e. to make new cells
and repairing damaged tissues.
13. Carbohydrates are from glucose and starch. Fats are from fatty acids and glycerol. Proteins are from amino acids.
Cholesterol is a kind of sterol which is essential for the formation cell membrane.
14. Vitamin C maintains healthy skin, gum and the lining of blood vessels. Lack of Vitamin C can cause scurvy. Vitamin
C helps our cells to stick together.
15. Vitamin D helps the absorption of calcium. Lack of Vitamin D can cause rickets.
16. Calcium is a type of mineral, it has the function:
1) For strong bones and teeth. 2) Clotting of blood.
17. Lack of calcium can cause rickets.
18. Iron is also a type of mineral, it has the function of making haemoglobin in red blood cells.
19. Lack of red blood cells can cause anaemia.

5.4 Absorption.
1.
2.
The capillaries of the villi will join up to form the hepatic portal vein which carries blood to the
liver.
3.
Glucose & amino acids will be sent to parts of the body that need them.
4.
Excess glucose will be converted by the liver into a storage substance called glycogen & stored in
the liver.
5.
Glycogen can be converted back to glucose when the body needs more glucose.
6.
Any more excess glucose will be converted to fats and stored in the adipose tissues under the skin.
7.
Excess amino acids will undergo a process called deamination which is done by the liver.
8.
Deamination is the process by which amino acids are broken down into glucose and urea. Urea is a
nitrogenous substance which is sent to the kidneys for disposal.
9.

8. RESPIRATION
8.1 Respiration.
Respiration is the process of breaking down food to release energy in the presence of oxygen.
There are two types of respiration:
1) Aerobic respiration.
2) Anaerobic respiration.
Aerobic respiration is the process of breaking down food in living cells to release a large amount of energy
in the presence of oxygen.
Anaerobic respiration is the process of breaking down food in living cells to release a small amount of
energy in the absence of oxygen.
Aerobic respiration:
Glucose + oxygen

1) Inspired air is lower than body temperature.
2) Expired air is about the same as body temperature.
8.3 Human Gaseous Exchange.
1.The respiratory system consists of: Lungs, Nose, Mouth, Trachea, Bronchi, Bronchioles, Alveoli
2. The gas exchange system in man:
Fig.8.1 The gas exchange system in man (left lung cut open to show alveoli)
Page 14
Air is then sucked into the lungs, inflating the alveoli until the internal pressure equals that of
the atmosphere.
F)
G) During expiration, only the internal intercostal muscles contract. The rib cage drops, mainly due to its
own weight.
H) The diaphragm relaxes and is forced into a dome shape by the falling rib cage.
I)
J)
Page 15
K) During forced breathing, such as during exercise or sneezing, expiration becomes a much more active
and forceful process as the ribs are moved more vigorously downwards and the diaphragm is moved
upwards.
4. Structure of the alveolus:
A) The alveoli are where gaseous exchange takes place between the air in the sacs and the blood in the
capillaries surrounding each alveolus.
B) The distance over which the gases must diffuse is about 0.01 mm - two cell layers thick.
C) A thin film of moisture covers the surface of the alveolar wall. This has been found to contain a
chemical which lowers surface tension. This makes it easier for the lungs to be inflated during
breathing in. Without this chemical or surfactant, the alveoli would collapse and become stuck
together each time air passes out of the lungs.

9. EXCRETION
9.1 Excretion.
1. Excretion is the process by which waste products and toxic materials are removed from the body of an
organism.
2. Excretory organs:
3.
4. Lungs:
The lungs supply the body with oxygen, but they are also excretory organs because they get rid of carbon dioxide. They also
lose a great deal of water vapour, but this loss is unavoidable and is not a method of controlling water content of the body.
5. Kidneys:
The kidneys remove urea and other nitrogenous waste from the blood. They also expel excess water, salts, hormones and
drugs.
6. Liver:
The liver breakdown haemoglobin to produce yellow/green bile pigment, bilirubin. Bilirubin is excreted with the bile into the
small intestine and expelled with the faeces. The pigment undergoes changes in the intestine and is largely responsible for the
brown colour of the faeces.
7. Skin:
Sweat consists of water, with sodium chloride (salt) and traces of urea dissolved in it. These substances are excreted when we
sweat. But, sweating is a response to rise in temperature and not a change in the blood composition. Therefore, skin is not an
excretory organ.
8. Kidney failure may result from an accident involving a drop in blood pressure, or from a disease of the kidneys. A dialysis
machine is required to replace the function of the kidneys should the kidneys are damaged.

10. HOMEOSTASIS
10.1 Homeostasis.
1. Homeostasis is the maintenance of a constant internal environment.
2. For any homeostatic control to occur there must be:

2. Accommodation is the ability to change the curvature of the lens, so that light rays continue to
be focused on the retina.
11.3 Hormones.
1. Hormones are chemical substances produced by a gland, carried by the blood, to the target organ(s), and
produce a response, and destroyed in the liver.
2. Since hormones are proteins, therefore they are affected by pH and temperature.
3. The pituitary gland plays an important role as a "controller". It secretes a number of hormones, each of which
controls the activity of a particular gland, hence the pituitary gland is sometimes referred to as the "master
gland".
4. Location of endocrine gland:
5. The islets of Langerhans are the special group of cells in the pancreas which secrete the hormone insulin into
the bloodstream.

12 REPRODUCTION
12.1 Key definitions
Asexual reproduction formation of a new organism, without the involvement of gametes.
Sexual reproduction- formation of new organism by the fusion of gametes.
Pollination transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma.
Dispersal a means of moving fruits or seeds away from the parent plant.
Growth an increase in dry mass of an organism as a result of cell growth and division.
Development an increase in complexity through the differentiation of cells.
12.2 Asexual reproduction
Advantages
1. The process is quick
2. Only one parent is needed
3. No gametes are needed
4. All the good characteristics of the parent are passed on to the offsprings
5. Where there is no dispersal offspring will grow in the same favourable environment as the parent
6. Plants that reproduce asexually usually store large amounts of food that allow rapid growth when conditions
are suitable.
Disadvantages
1. There is little variation created, so adaptation to a changing environment is unlikely.
2. If the parent has no resistance to a particular disease, none of the offsprings will have resistance
3. Lack of dispersal can lead to competition for nutrients, water and light.
12.3 Sexual Reproduction
Advantages
1. There is variation in the offspring so adaptation to a changing or new environment is likely enabling survival of
the species
2. New varieties can be created, which may have resistance to disease.
3. In plants, seeds are produced, which allow dispersal away from the parent plant, reducing competition
Disadvantages
1. Two parents are usually needed
2. Growth of a new plant to maturity from a seed is slow.
12.4 Functions of parts of a flower
Petal often large and coloured, to attract insects.
Sepal protects the flower while in bud
Petiole supports the flower to make it easily seen by insects, and to be able to withstand wind
Nectary- produces nectar to attract insects
Stamen the male reproductive part of the flower, made up of anther and filament
Anther contains pollen sacs, in which pollen grains are formed. Pollen contains male sex cells.
Filament supports the anther
Carpel the female reproductive part of the flower, made up of stigma, style and ovary
Stigma A sticky surface that receives pollen during pollination.
Style links the stigma to the ovary, through which pollen tubes grow
Ovary contains ovules, which develop into seeds when fertilized.
12.5 Pollination
Insect pollination
1. Petals present (often large, coloured and scented, with guidelines to guide insect into the flower).

Menstrual Cycle
1. It occurs in females between the onset of Puberty and Menopause.
2. It is regulated by hormones secreted by the anterior lobe of pituitary gland and the ovaries (Oestrogen &
Progesterone).
3. Menstruation is the monthly discharge of blood lasting 3-5 days Beginning of the Menstrual Cycle.
a. Menstruation normally contains uterus lining, unfertilized Ovum, blood & Mucus.
4. Ovulation normally occurs in 14 days after the onset of menstruation.
a. Before the ovulation, spongy lining of uterus will be ready.
5. Under normal circumstances only one mature ovum is produced each month.
6. If Fertilization occurs:
a. Implantation of fertilized ovum in the uterus lining occurs.
b. Level of progesterone is high, to Maintain pregnancy and helps in the formation of placenta.
7. When the woman becomes pregnant, her menstrual cycle stops until after the baby is born.
8. If No fertilization: Level of progesterone is low Menstruation Starts.

2. Gonorrhoea
This is the most common of the STDs, as there are many strains of the bacteria that cause this disease. A person may
develop immunity to one strain but be infected with another. Infected pregnant women may give birth to babies with eye
diseases, which can lead to permanent blindness.
Cause
Gonorrhoea is caused by a bacterium called Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
Infection results from direct sexual contact. It is rarely transmitted by indirect contact with toilet seats or towels.
Symptoms
Within 7 to 20 days after exposure the bacteria produce an antigen called exotoxin and causes redness and swelling of
the genitalia.
1. Males: infection begins in the urethra with frequent urination, severe burning sensation and a discharge of mucus.
Infection then spreads to the prostrate gland, seminal vesicles and epididymis. Abscesses develop which may lead
to sterility.
2. Females: no immediate symptoms occur. The infection spreads to the uterus and fallopian tubes, leaving dense
scar tissue, which can result in sterility. If untreated, the gonorrhoea spreads to other organs affecting the heart
valves, the joints and also the meninges of the brain.
Treatment
Antibiotic: penicillin and tetracycline spectinomycin
3. Syphilis
Syphilis causes death in 5 to 10 per cent of infected people if untreated. Pregnant women transmit the syphilis to the
unborn baby through the placenta prenatal syphilis. About 50 per cent of the infected babies die shortly before or after
birth.
Cause
A bacterium called Treponema pallidum is transferred during direct sexual contact. It generally enters the body through
a break in the skin or mucus membrane. Within 24 hours, it invades the lymph and circulatory systems, spreading
throughout the body.
Symptom: There are four stages:
1. Primary stage: three weeks after infection with a primary chancre, a small, painless ulcer on the genitals. This
chancre is very infectious and any sexual contact leads to infection of the sexual partner. The chancre heals
quickly.
2. Secondary stage: two months after infection with flu-like symptoms and a mild rash. In some cases lesions develop
in the mucus membrane of the mouth and the genitals. This stage is highly contagious as the lesions contain
millions of bacteria.
3. Latent Stage: there are no apparent symptoms now. The bacteria begin to invade the organs of the body.
4. Advanced stage: lesions called gummas develop on the heart, the skin, liver and spleen. The central nervous
system may become infected and this leads to insanity and finally death. Severe lesions of the organs will cause
death.
Treatment:
Scrapings of the chancre and blood tests will identify the bacteria. Blood tests show the presence of an antibody called
regain, produced when a person is infected. An antibiotic like penicillin is prescribed during the primary stage of infection.
Once lesions occur, permanent damage to the organs cannot be repaired.
Birth control:
Natural Method
Prevent copulation during 5 days before and after ovulation (fertile period)
Chemical method
Chemical which kill sperms are put into the vagina of the female before intercourse.
Page 32
Mechanical Method
Condom:
1. Have male and female condom
2. As a barrier to prevent sperms from entering vagina
Diaphragm
1. Fitted over the cervix
2. To be used together with spermicides
Intra-uterine device (IUD)
1. A form of coil / loop
2. Insert it into the uterus
3. Regular medical examination
a. Remain in place
4. Irritation to the lining of the uterus
Hormonal Method
Contraceptive pills:
1. Contains female sex hormones which inhibit ovulation
2. Must be taken daily
3. May have side effects
Surgical Method
1. Vasectomy: Cutting and tying up of sperm ducts
2. Tubal ligation: Cutting and tying up of oviducts.
Advantages of breast feeding over bottle feeding
1. There are antibodies present in breast milk, giving the baby protection against infection.
2. Foodstuffs are present in breast milk in the correct proportions.
3. There is no risk of an allergic reaction to breast milk.
4. Breast milk is produced at the correct temperature.
5. There are no additives or preservatives in breast milk.
6. Breastfeeding builds a bond between mother and a baby.
7. Breast milk does not require sterilization as there are no bacteria present that could cause intestinal disease.
8. There is no cost involved in using breast milk
9. Breast milk does not need to be prepared.
10. Breast feeding triggers a reduction in the size of the mothers uterus.
Birth
1.
2.
3.
4.
The first stage of the birth process is called labour, triggered by the hormone oxytocin.
The muscular walls of the uterus start to contract.
The pressure breaks the amniotic sac, releasing the amniotic fluid.
Contractions gradually become more frequent, pushing the baby down towards the cervix, which becomes dilated
to allow the baby to pass through.
5. The vagina stretches to allow the baby to be born.
6. The baby is still attached to the placenta by the umbilical cord so this cut and tied.
7. The placenta breaks away from the wall of the uterus and passes out.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------13 INHERITANCE
13.1 What are chromosomes?
1. Genetic materials found inside the nucleus of a cell
2. Made up of DNA & protein
3. Appear as very thin & thread-like structures called Chromatins
Page 33
Heterozygous (hybrid)
Dominant gene (or character) - which expresses its effect even in heterozygous condition
Recessive gene (or character) - which expresses its effect only in homozygous condition
Pedigree - it shows the inheritance of one or more characters in different generations
Test cross
cross the organism with dominant character to an organism with homozygous recessive character
Page 34
to test whether the organism with the dominant character is homozygous or heterozygous
This term describes a pair of alleles, neither of which is dominant over the other. This means both can
have an effect on the phenotype when they are present in the genotype.
male : XY
female : XX
a chromosomes other than sex chromosomes somatic chromosomes which control normal body characters
22 pairs are identical in both sexes autosomes
The 23rd pair is different in male and female sex chromosomes
13.5 Twins
identical twins
one embryo separates into two and each develops into a new individual
non-identical twins
Discontinuous variation
Homologous chromosomes separate independently from each other and pass into a different gamete
(INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT). As a result, a great variety of gametes are produced
Random Fertilization
Page 35
since fertilization is a random process, there are many possible different combinations of genes in a zygote
Mutation
13.8
Genetic Engineering
1. Human cells with genes for healthy insulin are selected
2. A chromosome is removed from the cell.
3. The insulin gene is cut from the chromosome using restriction endonuclease enzyme.
4. A suitable bacterial cell is selected. Some of its DNA is in the form of circular plasmids.
5. All the plasmids are removed from the bacterial cell.
6. The plasmids are cut open using the same restriction endonuclease enzyme.
7. The human insulin gene is inserted into the plasmids using ligase enzyme.
8. The plasmids are returned to the bacterial cell.
9. The bacterial cell is allowed to reproduce in a fermenter. All the cells produced contain plasmids with
the human insulin gene.
