Question

A. Evidence code 6a0240d2: the answer uses the aseptic disc diffusion lawn culture sterile forceps clear zone diameter antimicrobial comparison evidence to address required practical 4: investigate the effect of a named variable on cell-surface membrane permeability in Transport across cell membranes.
B. It describes eyepiece graticule stage micrometer calibration image scale resolution magnification conversion instead, so the evidence does not match the question.
C. It names apparatus but omits independent variable, dependent variable, controlled variables and controls.
D. It gives a conclusion without evaluation of precision, accuracy, uncertainty, reliability or validity.

Answer

Correct answer: Evidence code 6a0240d2: the answer uses the aseptic disc diffusion lawn culture sterile forceps clear zone diameter antimicrobial comparison evidence to address required practical 4: investigate the effect of a named variable on cell-surface membrane permeability in Transport across cell membranes.

Explanation

Evidence code 6a0240d2: the answer uses the aseptic disc diffusion lawn culture sterile forceps clear zone diameter antimicrobial comparison evidence to address required practical 4: investigate the effect of a named variable on cell-surface membrane permeability in Transport across cell membranes. Case 3 uses aseptic disc diffusion lawn culture sterile forceps clear zone diameter antimicrobial comparison. Method: carry out the named procedure and measure the dependent variable. Independent variable: state the factor deliberately changed. Dependent variable: state the measured outcome. Controlled variables: keep relevant conditions constant. Controls: compare against a valid control treatment or standard. Evaluation: discuss repeats, mean, precision, accuracy, uncertainty, anomalies, reliability, validity and conclusion. Aseptic technique, contamination control and inhibition-zone evidence are included when microbial growth is involved. Calibration curve or known standards are included when concentration or water potential is inferred. Evidence code 6a0240d2.

Common mistake

Unique c60c1aba cells practical mistake

For Required practical 4: investigate the effect of a named variable on cell-surface membrane permeability, the weak answer omits the independent variable, dependent variable, controlled variables, controls and evaluation.

Unique cells evidence c60c1aba-3. Method reasoning: describe the procedure, measure the dependent variable and record repeat results. Variables reasoning: name the independent variable, dependent variable and controlled variables. Controls reasoning: keep concentration, volume, temperature, pH, timing, microscope settings, sample thickness and apparatus constant. Evaluation reasoning: evaluate precision, accuracy, uncertainty, anomalies, reliability, validity and whether the conclusion follows from the evidence. Aseptic microbial practicals must include sterile technique, contamination control, sealed agar plates, safe incubation and inhibition-zone evidence. Calibration practicals must use known standards, a calibration curve or known water-potential series.
