Study Notes
- The Biology Paper 1 Multiple Choice (Core) exam is 0610/12.
- The exam is in February/March 2024 and lasts 45 minutes.
- The paper consists of 40 multiple-choice questions.
- Each correct answer scores one mark, totaling 40 marks.
- Breathing is a characteristic of all living organisms.
- A mammal can be identified by the presence of fur.
- All cells have a cell membrane.
- To increase the rate of diffusion of oxygen molecules out of a photosynthesizing leaf, decrease the distance over which diffusion occurs.
- Osmosis is the movement of water through a partially permeable membrane of a cell.
- Active transport is the movement of particles from a lower to a higher concentration and requires energy.
- DCPIP initially starts blue and finishes colourless when lemon juice (containing vitamin C) is tested with it.
- Biuret solution is a reagent used to test for the presence of protein in food.
- The rate of reaction peaks at pH 6 for the enzyme in the graph.
- Photosynthesis and respiration are taking place at the same time in the tube.
- Palisade mesophyll cell shows a diagram of a typical plant cell.
- Food providing the most energy has key fats and oils.
- Statements 2 and 3 about teeth are correct: incisor teeth are for biting and cutting food, and premolar teeth are for chewing and grinding food.
- The definition of chemical digestion is large insoluble molecules are changed into smaller soluble molecules.
- Hydrochloric acid provides an acid pH for enzymes in the stomach.
- The xylem tissue provides support for a plant.
- The graph shows increasing wind speed increases the rate of transpiration.
- Valves ensure one-way flow of blood in the circulatory system.
- Red blood cells flow through blood vessels in the order 2→3→1 when travelling from the right ventricle to the left atrium of the heart.
- ECG traces differ during exercise because during exercise the heart rate increases to transport more oxygen to muscles.
- Pathogens are disease-causing organisms and they are transmitted by indirect contact through contaminated food.
- The alveolus has the thinnest wall in the breathing system.
- The products of aerobic respiration are carbon dioxide and water.
- The products of anaerobic respiration in yeast are lactic acid.

- The human phenotype caused by genes only is ABO blood group.
- An ecosystem is a community of organisms and their environment interacting together.
- A ban on hunting an endangered species will decrease their population.
- Bacteria are used in genetic modification because they can make complex molecules and have a rapid rate of reproduction.
- Uses of genetic modification include producing herbicide-resistant crops.
