- Q11. The diagram shows a section through an alveolus and through a capillary, How does carbon dioxide move from Y to X?by transpirationby translocationby diffusionby osmosis60s
- Q22.Muscles are responsible for the ventilation of the lungs during breathing. Which row describes their action during the inspiration of air?BDCA60s
- Q33.Which process releases the most energy from one molecule of glucose?D. photosynthesisC. anaerobic respiration in yeastA. aerobic respirationB. anaerobic respiration in muscle60s
- Q44. What helps oxygen to be absorbed rapidly into the blood in the lungs?Air breathed in has less oxygen than air breathed out.Alveoli have thick walls and a large surface areaThe concentration of oxygen in the blood is higher than in the alveoli.Alveoli have thin walls and a large surface area.60s
- Q55. The flow diagram summarises three different ways that glucose can be broken down to release energy.1 only1,2 and 32 and 3 only1 and 2 only60s
- Q66. The body has different types of defenses against pathogens , 1 antibodies 2. hair in the nose 3. mucus 4. skin . Which defences help to prevent pathogens reaching the alveoli when breathing in?2 ,3 and 4 only2 only1,2 and 32 and 3 only60s
- Q77. What are the approximate percentages of oxygen and carbon dioxide in inspired air?CBAD60s
- Q88. The graph shows the lactic acid concentration in blood during and after exercise. Which process accounts for the shape of the graph at Z?anaerobic respiration of lactic acid in the kidneyaerobic respiration of lactic acid in the kidneyaerobic respiration of lactic acid in the liveranaerobic respiration of lactic acid in the liver60s
- Q99. The diagram illustrates changes in air pressure taking place inside the lungs during a complete cycle of breathing. Atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. At which point on the diagram are the ribs beginning to be lowered?CDAB60s
- Q1010. Which process uses energy released by respiration?GrowthDiffusionOsmosisEvaporation60s
- Q1111. Which pathway is followed by air passing into the body?ACDB60s
- Q1212. Oxygen is required for aerobic respiration. How many molecules of oxygen are required for the aerobic respiration of three molecules of glucose?61231860s
- Q1313. Which statement about both aerobic and anaerobic respiration is correct?BCAD60s
- Q1414. The graph shows the energy released by two animals through respiration as the external temperature changes. Which conclusion can be drawn from the graph?As the temperature rises, respiration always increases.Animals 1 and 2 release the least energy at 23 °C.Animal 2 always respires faster than animal 1.The rate of respiration is the same for both animals at 23 °C60s
- Q1515. The flow diagram summarises three different ways that glucose can be broken down to release energy Aerobic respiration involves the breakdown of glucose. C6H12O6 + …....x…….O2 → …….y…...H2O + …....z…...CO2 + energy . Which values for x, y and z balance the equation?BCDA60s
