Q4.Fresh milk is a mixture of compounds including lipid, protein and about 5% lactose sugar. Lactose must be digested by the enzyme lactase, before the products can be absorbed. Lactase can be added to fresh milk to pre-digest the lactose. This makes lactosefree milk, which is suitable for people who do not produce enough lactase of their own. A student investigated the effect of changing ph and temperature on the digestion of lactose in milk. The results are shown in Tables 1 and 2. Table 1 Effect of ph Table 2 Effect of temperature ph Time taken to digest lactose in minutes Temperature in C Time taken to digest lactose in minutes 4.0 20 25 20 5.0 18 30 14 6.0 13 35 11 7.0 7 40 6 8.0 5 45 29 9.0 6 50 No digestion (a) The label on a carton of lactose-free milk states: Lactase is normally produced in the stomach of mammals.

The scientists: pre-incubated samples of the enzyme at various temperatures for 30 minutes put each sample on ice for a further 10 minutes measured the percentage (%) remaining activity of the enzyme in each sample. This was done by incubating each sample with protein at 37 C for 6 hours.
The graph shows the scientists results. Pre-incubation temperature in C The scientists recommended that the enzyme could be used in detergents at a temperature of 60 C. Suggest why the scientists recommended a temperature of 60 C. Use information from the graph and your own scientific knowledge in your answer................ (Total 14 marks)... (3)
Task Three: Aim: Due Date: Assessment Style: Heart and heart disease This task is designed to help you know the structure of the heart, what can go wrong and how intervention can help Peer Q6.The diagram in Figure 1 shows a section through the human heart, seen from the front. Figure 1 (a) Draw a ring around the correct answer to complete each sentence. epithelial (i) The wall of the heart is made mostly of glandular muscular tissue. (ii) The resting heart rate is controlled by the pacemaker. 1. The pacemaker is located at position 6. 7.
(iii) If a person s heart rate is irregular, the person may be fitted with an artificial pacemaker. an electrical device. The artificial pacemaker is a pump. a valve. (b) (i) Write a number, 2, 5, 6 or 7, in each of the three boxes to answer this question. Which chamber of the heart: pumps oxygenated blood to the head and body receives deoxygenated blood from the head and body receives oxygenated blood from the lungs? (3) (ii) Give the number, 3, 4 or 8, of the valve that closes when the blood pressure in the aorta is greater than the blood pressure in the left ventricle. Write the correct answer in the box. (c) The diagram in Figure 2 shows one type of artificial heart valve. The plastic ball is in the closed position. Figure 2
This type of artificial valve could be used to replace a faulty valve in the heart. (i) What is the function of valves in the heart? (ii) The artificial valve could be used to replace valve 4 shown in Figure 1. The artificial valve opens to let blood through when the ball is moved towards A. Which end of the valve, A or B, should point towards chamber 5? Explain your answer. (3) (d) (i) The artificial heart valve may cause blood clots to form on its surface. Describe what happens during blood clotting.
(ii) Read the information in the passage. Replacing a damaged heart valve can dramatically improve the blood circulation and the supply of oxygen to the body s tissues. The operation to replace a heart valve is a long one during which the patient s blood goes through a bypass machine. Sometimes the artificial valve can fail to work. If the surface of the valve becomes rough, small blood clots can form on its surface then break away and be carried around the body by the blood. Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of artificial heart valves. (4) (Total 17 marks) Q7.The number of people in the UK with tumours is increasing. (a) (i) Describe how tumours form.
