Most mutations are dominant and only one mutant allele is often present. Most mutations are recessive and both mutant alleles are often present. Most mutations are recessive and only one mutant allele is often present. Your answer [1] Turn over
6 6 SECTION B Answer all the questions. 11 The use of antibiotics has resulted in an increase in bacteria that are resistant to certain antibiotics. The table shows data for the percentage incidence of MRSA resistant bacteria. Year % Incidence (a) (i) Plot a graph to show the % incidence of MRSA over time. Draw a line of best fit. [4]
7 7 (ii) The percentage incidence for 1990 is missing from the table. Use the graph to predict the percentage incidence for Answer =... % [1] (iii) How does evidence in the graph support the theory of evolution through natural selection?... [3] (b) (i) Bacterial cells are different to animal cells because they contain plasmids. Write about two other ways bacterial cells are different [2] (ii) A single plasmid may contain information on resistance to many different antibiotics. In the last few decades, doctors have been asked to prescribe less antibiotics to avoid further resistance developing. Very few new drugs have been developed in the last few decades. Suggest two reasons why.... [2] Turn over
8 8 12 (a) The Human Genome Project (HGP) began in Scientists all over the world collaborated on this project and it was completed in (i) What is a genome?... [1] (ii)* Knowledge and analysis of an individual s genome may lead to many medical uses. There are also areas where this knowledge can cause difficulties for an individual. Discuss whether the Human Genome Project has been a big step forward in science or an ethical dilemma. To support your answer discuss the advantages and disadvantages of an individual s genome being identified.... [6]
9 9 (b) Insulin can be made by genetic engineering. The stages involved are listed but they are not in the correct order. A B C D Insulin gene is inserted into a plasmid using ligase enzymes. The plasmid is placed inside the bacterial cell. Bacterium reproduce, resulting in millions of identical bacteria that make human insulin. The gene for making insulin is cut from a length of human DNA using restriction enzymes. (i) Write the letters in the boxes to show the correct order of the stages. Start [2] (ii) The plasmid is used to transfer genetic material into the bacterium. What word describes something that is used to transfer genetic material into an organism?... [1] Turn over
10 10 13 A student conducts a field study on a rocky shore. The student finds differences between the distribution of two types of barnacles, stellate barnacles and rock barnacles. The diagram shows the distribution of stellate barnacles and rock barnacles. Highest tide Stellate barnacle Lowest tide Rock barnacle To measure the distribution of these two types of barnacle the student does a transect. (a) Describe how the student would complete a transect [2] (b) The student uses a transect instead of a grid and random numbers. A transect is more suitable for investigating the distribution of organisms. Explain why [2] (c) State two safety features the student must be aware of when completing the transect on the rocky shore [2]
11 11 (d) The student draws a kite diagram to show their results. Stellate barnacle Rock barnacle Distance from highest tide (m) (i) Suggest how the kite diagram shows abundance of stellate and rock barnacles.... [1] (ii) Rock barnacles find it hard to survive when their bodies dry out. Rock barnacles are better at feeding and attaching to rocks than stellate barnacles. Explain how evidence in the kite diagram supports the existence of these characteristics in stellate and rock barnacles.... [2] Turn over
12 12 14 Lactose is a sugar found in milk. (a) Lactase breaks down lactose into smaller carbohydrate molecules, glucose and galactose. Write down the name of one monomer in this reaction.... [1] (b) The diagram shows the breakdown of lactose. Lactose Lactase Galactose + Glucose H 2 O Explain how lactase breaks down lactose and why lactase is the only enzyme in the body that can do this. You may draw a diagram to help you [4]
13 (c) Congenital alactasia is a rare genetic disorder. It is caused by a recessive allele (n). 13 A pregnant woman is heterozygous for Congenital alactasia. The father of the baby is homozygous recessive. What is the probability of the baby having Congenital alactasia? Use a labelled genetic diagram to explain your answer.... [2] Turn over
14 14 (d) Lactase deficiency often develops in adults. It results from decreased lactase production. It is a common change as adults normally shift from a milk based diet in infancy to a non-milk based adult diet. However, people with a high dairy milk based diet will be affected more if they develop lactase deficiency. Many Northern Europeans use a lot of milk in their diet. Look at the table. Ethnic group or race % of adults with lactase deficiency Northern Europeans 4 11% Eastern and Southern Europeans 14 38% Southern and Eastern Indians 77% Hispanics 50 80% Africans 80% Asian and Native Americans % (i) A gene mutation occurred that leads to the ability to digest lactose even in adulthood. Use the data to suggest the part of the world where the mutation first occurred.... [1] (ii) Explain why the ability to digest lactose in adults is more common in some areas of the world than others. Use the information and ideas about natural selection in your answer.... [4]

16 16 15 Cancer is a disease caused by malfunction of normal cell division. Once a cancer cell develops it continues to divide to form a tumour. The graph shows the development of a breast tumour. Number of cells mm Very Early Breast Cancer (undetectable) 0.5 cm 1 cm 2 cm 4 cm Clinical Breast Cancer 10 cm Number of cell doublings (a) At 1 cm diameter, the tumour has cells and is detectable. The graph shows that at 1 mm diameter the breast tumour has cells. By how many cells has the tumour increased from 1 mm in size until it is first detectable? Write your answer in standard form to 1 decimal place. Answer =... cells [3] (b) Cell doubling for breast cancer occurs approximately every 100 days. Breast tumours change the blood vessels in the breast causing a temperature change. This temperature change can be detected by a thermogram after 100 days. Mammograms can detect possible tumours as a mass of tissue when it is 1 cm in diameter. Suggest why thermograms might greatly reduce the number of deaths from breast cancer [1]
17 17 (c) Stem cells have been used in cancer therapy for many years. Scientists could also use gene technology to prevent or treat cancer. Compare the ethics of using gene technology with the use of stem cells [3] END OF QUESTION PAPER
