6 Trаnslоcаtiоn is the trаnspоrt of the products of photosynthesis in a plant. 6.1 A scientist investigates the effect of sulfur dioxide gas, a common air pollutant, on the rate of translocation in young bean plants. She uses this method. select young bean plants that each have one mature leaf and one young leaf that is still growing. expose some of the plants to sulfur dioxide gas, a common air pollutant. measure the rate of translocation in the plants exposed to sulfur dioxide gas measure the rate of translocation in the plants not exposed to sulfur dioxide gas. 6.1.1 Identify the independent variable in this investigation. (1) 6.1.2 Identify the dependent variable in this investigation. (1) 6.1.3 Suggest a control variable for this investigation. 6.2 The diagram (see Addendum Question 6, Figure 6.2) shows one of the young bean plants viewed from above. 6.2.1 Redraw the diagram and draw an arrow on the diagram to show the main direction of translocation. (1) 6.2.2 Name the tissue that is the main site of translocation. (1) 6.2.3 Name one substance that is moved by translocation. (1) 6.3 The scientist compares the results for the two groups of plants. She realises that sulfur dioxide might directly affect the rate of translocation or affect the rate of photosynthesis. Explain why changing the rate of photosynthesis would change the rate of translocation. (3) 6.4 Name the tissue that is transporting water and describe how it is adapted for the function. (3)
4.1 Give the expected relаtiоnship between the nаmed independent vаriable and the named dependent variable in this demоnstratiоn. (2) 4.2 Give two variables that the teacher controls in this demonstration. (2) 4.3 The table shows the teacher’s results. Enzyme concentration in number of discs Volume of oxygen produced in one minute in cm3 Reading 1 Reading 2 Reading 3 Reading 4 Mean reading 5 1.2 1.5 0.0 1.5 10 3.5 4.5 6.0 5.5 4.9 15 6.5 7.0 7.5 8.0 7.3 20 9.0 8.5 8.0 7.5 8.3 25 15.0 11.0 11.5 12.0 12.4 4.3.1 Calculate the mean volume of oxygen produced in one minute using 5 potato discs. (2) 4.3.2 Calculate the percentage increase in mean volume of oxygen produced in one minute as the concentration of enzyme changes from 15 to 20 discs. (2) 4.3.3 Explain the relationship between the concentration of enzyme and mean volume of oxygen produced in one minute. (2) 4.4 Suggest why the teacher measures the volume of oxygen after the first minute of the reaction rather than after 10 minutes. (2)
