  • Emptycell Half 4 diagram

    Recognising Emptycell Half 4

    Emptycell Half 4 supports Culturing microorganisms (biology only) by giving students a diagram they can connect to the specification point being tested.

    What To Explain

    The answer should name the cell structure and link it to its function, such as control, respiration, photosynthesis or protein synthesis.

    Syllabus Link

    Syllabus link: AQA GCSE Biology 8461, Cell structure.

    Exam Answer Move

    The mapped objective is: Apply understanding of culturing microorganisms (biology only) to explain and interpret GCSE Biology exam questions. Diagram marks usually come from linking a named structure to what it does.

  • Emptycell Membrane 2 5 diagram

    Recognising Emptycell Membrane 2 5

    Emptycell Membrane 2 5 supports Culturing microorganisms (biology only) by giving students a diagram they can connect to the specification point being tested.

    What To Explain

    The membrane is selectively permeable, so substances move across it by diffusion, osmosis or active transport depending on the particle and gradient.
