Because
triglycerides
contain
three
fatty
acids
they
are
highly concentrated sources of energy. / Because the fatty acid tails are hydrophobic, they are stored anhydrously. As a result, more triglycerides can be packed in adipocytes. 2. Long-term storage: anhydrous state – no interference with metabolism. 3. Insulation / Protection / Buoyancy: due to lipid properties. 4. Nutrition: Nutrition: Triglycerides needed in body in order to absorb lipid l ipid soluble Vitamins A, D, E and K. 5. Metabolic water: produced when fat is broken down

(iii) Movement of mercury from mother to foetus 1. 2. 3.
4.
Active process The foetal blood always has a higher concentration of mercury than that of the mother This implies that mercury has has to be pumped across across the placenta from the mother against a concentration gradient to the foetal blood supply. If it were passive, the concentration of mercury would have been equal in both mother and foetus (or concentration in foetus will be lower than in the mother).

Once in the embryo sac of the ovule, one male haploid gamete fuses with ovum nucleus (to form the diploid zygote). 3. The other haploid male nucleus fuses with the diploid/secondary/endosperm nucleus in the embryo sac (to form the triploid endosperm).

Enzymes are globular proteins / 3-D shape / tertiary structure Enzymes have active site on the 3-D structure to which a specific substrate attaches for reaction to occur Competitive inhibitors have a similar shape to the substrate molecule Competitive inhibitors fit temporarily onto the active site and compete with substrate for entry to the active site Effect of competitive inhibitors decrease as the substrate concentration is increased / effects are reversible Non-competitive inhibitors bind to another another part of the enzyme molecule (allosteric site) / or binds permanently to active site Distortion Distortion of the (3-D) structure of enzyme can occur if the inhibitor binds to other part (non- acti ve site) of enzyme molecule substrate Distortion of the enzyme structure can prevents the substrate
from binding Effects of non-competitive inhibitors are not reversed if substrate concentration is increased / irreversible 10. Non-competitive Non-competitive inhibition can be reversible if inhibitor binds briefly to the enzyme/ nonreversible if i t binds permanently 11. Competitive inhibition inhibition has no effect on Vmax but increases Km 12. Non-competitive Non-competitive inhibition has no effect on Km but lowers Vmax.

Question 5 (a)
Synthesis of RNA 1. The information information stored in the gene is in the form of a sequence of bases which is used to sequentially arrange amino acids to synthesize a protein. 2. RNA /mRNA is the molecule which is used as the template to organize the primary structure of proteins. 3. Process by which DNA is used to synthesize RNA is called transcription transcription / producing mRNA with a complimentary base sequence to one strand of DNA 4. DNA strand unzips so that both strands separate (catalyzed by DNA helicase / RNA polymerase) 5. One strand is used as the template strand. 6. Complementary Complementary bases (ribonucleotides) are added to strand being copied (in 3’to 5’ direction, catalyzed by RNA polymerase).
7. Base pairing: A with U; C with G 8. Condensation reactions occur (phosphodiester bonds form) between bases (in a 5’to 3’ direction)to form mRNA
9. mRNA strand is identical to the coding/sense strand 10.

KEY AND MARK SCHEME How proteins are responsible for phenotype
1.
Phenotype is the external observable characteristics of an organism.
2.
Phenotype is determined by the kind of proteins produced in the body
3.
Proteins are expressions of genes / a particular gene codes for a particular protein.
4.
Cells of a similar phenotype form tissues (different tissues form organs, organs form organ systems), which compose the organism.
5.
For example, the protein haemoglobin is packed into an erythrocyte giving it its characteristic red colour. Accept ( any
appropriate example e.g. sickle cell anemia).
