The electron micrograph shows the structures in an exocrine gland cell of the pancreas.

Identify the organelles labelled I and II on the electron micrograph and state their principal role. [4]

The image is an electron micrograph.

Determine, with a reason, whether the image is of a prokaryotic cell or eukaryotic cell.

What steps should a student follow to calculate the actual size of each bacterial cell?

• Step 1: Calculate the magnification by measuring the scale bar image ÷ actual size

  Step 2: Measure image of bacterial cell ÷ magnification

• Step 1: Calculate the magnification by measuring the scale bar image x actual size

  Step 2: Measure image of bacterial cell ÷ magnification

• Step 1: Measure the image of the bacterial cell

  Step 2: Divide the image size by the scale bar size

• He can't, it is impossible to calculate

Which functions of life are carried out by all unicellular organisms?

• Response, homeostasis, metabolism and growth

• Response, homeostasis, growth and photosynthesis

• Metabolism, photosynthesis, reproduction and nutrition

• Reproduction, ventilation, response and nutrition

Which characteristic of stem cells makes them useful for treating Stargardt’s disease?

• They divide by binary fission so provide sufficient cells.

• They are readily available from especially created embryos.

• They can differentiate into retinal cells.

• They transport white blood cells to the eyes.
