Cambridge O Level Biology 5090/22/M/J/24 - MCQ pastpaper solved

Описание: This video provides a complete explanation of Cambridge O Level Biology 5090/22/M/J/24 Question 1, covering:

• Identification of plant cell structures
• Gas exchange adaptations in leaves
• Effect of temperature on photosynthesis
• Optimum temperature interpretation
• Light intensity and limiting factors analysis

This paper is set by:
Cambridge Assessment International Education

Perfect for students preparing for:

• O Level Biology 5090
• IGCSE Biology 0610
• Edexcel IGCSE Biology
• Oxford AQA GCSE Biology

🌱 Part 1: Identifying Structures in Plant Cells
Structure A → Vacuole

Function:
• Stores water and solutes
• Maintains turgor pressure
• Keeps cell rigid

Structure B → Nucleus

Function:
• Controls cell activities
• Contains DNA

Structure seen in electron microscope only → Mitochondrion

Reason:
• Too small for light microscope
• Site of aerobic respiration

Exam Tip: Always link structure with function.

🍃 Part 2: Leaf Adaptations for Gas Exchange
A – Spongy mesophyll

• Large air spaces
• Moist surfaces
• Allows diffusion of CO₂ and O₂

B – Guard cell

• Opens and closes stoma
• Regulates gas exchange

C – Stoma

• Pore for CO₂ entry
• O₂ exit

D – Air space

• Increases internal surface area
• Speeds diffusion

Exam Tip: Mention diffusion for full marks.

🌡 Effect of Reducing Temperature (20°C → 10°C)

Photosynthesis is enzyme-controlled.

At 10°C:
• Slower enzyme activity
• Fewer successful collisions
• Lower maximum rate
• Curve plateaus at lower value

Key Concept: Lower temperature = slower enzyme activity.

🔥 Optimum Temperature

From graph:
• Maximum rate at 40°C

Therefore:
Optimum temperature = 40°C

Definition:
Optimum = temperature where rate is highest.

💡 Light Intensity – Lines B and C
Line B (15°C, 0.4% CO₂)

• Light increases rate initially
• Plateaus due to low temperature limiting enzymes

Line C (15°C, 0.04% CO₂)

• Increases slowly
• Plateaus earlier
• CO₂ becomes limiting factor

Comparison:
• B limited mainly by temperature
• C limited by CO₂ + temperature

Exam Tip:
Always identify limiting factor after plateau.
