  • Protein 10 diagram

    Recognising Protein 10

    Protein 10 supports Microscope Technology and Cellular Understanding 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.

    Primary private mapping: EDEXCEL GCSE Biology 1BI0, Key concepts in biology.

    Exam Answer Move

    This is linked to: Build an explanation of the way changes in microscope technology, covering electron microscopy, have enabled us to see cell structures and organelles with more clarity and detail than in the past and increased our understanding of the role of sub-cellular structures. A strong answer names the transport process and links it to membrane structure.

  • Protein 1 diagram

    Recognising Protein 1

    Protein 1 supports Investigating Food Types: Reagent Tests for Biological Molecules by giving students a diagram they can connect to the specification point being tested.
