Correct

• It provides support for the xylem vessels so that they don't collapse inwards.

• It keeps the xylem vessels waterproofed, this stops any water leaking out.

• Lignin kills the xylem cells, this allows for an uninterrupted flow of water through the xylem vessels.

I think that's right :smile:

Explain why the movement of water in the xylem stops if the leaves of a plant are removed. [4 marks]

Got my revision guide today :biggrin:

wooo!

In response to your last question: There Is no longer a transpiration stream to the water cannot be "drawn" up the xylem. ( I know this is not going to get full 4 marks. Is that a pastpaper question? :smile:

)

Okay here's one: Explain the role of the Golgi apparatus [3 marks]

EDIT: Really sorry about the delayed reply!

The response to the question was fine, that's the idea of the response. The question is an exam question from the CGP book lol :biggrin:

The Golgi Apparatus processes and packages new lipids and proteins. It also makes lysosomes to digest invading cells or break down worm out components of a cell. (I remember that so well from the CGP book :biggrin:

)

Coursework is a deadly time consumer. I can't afford to mess it up as it's pre-u and is 25% of the grade :-( I just need ro finish it, then set daily targets. I plan to do 4 hours a day from tomorrow, then to maintain that after school every day.

Explain what is meant by the term tissue [1 mark]

A collection of cells performing a particular function.

Describe the process of expiration [3marks]

Pi hours

probably averaging about 6 hours a day. Thing is I am generally quite slow at making revision notes because of my need to understand every fine detail of what I am learning, also meaning I go off on tangents in trying to understand things I don't actually need to know for the exam.

Correct

The intercostal and diaphragm muscles relax. The rib cage moves downwards and inwards and the diaphragm becomes a curved shape. The volume of the thorax decreases and this in turn causes an increase air pressure, this forces the air out of the lungs.

Describe the function of:

a) the sino-atrial node? [1 mark]
b) the Purkyne tissue? [1 mark]
