a) Nutrition (photosynthesis stops) or Growth
(slows).
b) Less glucose produced; less energy available;
chloroplasts inactive.
c) Chloroplasts, cell membrane (gas exchange).
2.
a) Muscle cells need lots of energy to contract.
b) Movement.
c) Mitochondria release energy for contraction.
3.
a) Sensitivity and Growth.
b) Root hair cells have large surface area →
absorb more water → support growth and
response.
4.
a) One cell has all needed structures (nucleus,
membrane, cytoplasm) to perform all functions.
b) Movement or reproduction — easier because
there are specialised cells.
5.
a) Nutrition (photosynthesis).
b) Leaf cells have chloroplasts → make food; root
cells do not → absorb water.
6.
a) Movement.
b) Cilia, flagella, cytoskeleton.
c) Helps them find food and escape danger.
7.
a) Excretion.
b) Toxins build up → damage tissues → organism
may become ill.
8.
a) Respiration (both use mitochondria).
b) Nutrition (plants photosynthesise but animals
eat food).
9.
a) Muscle cells → need most energy.
b) Movement.
10.
Specialised cells do different jobs → more efficient
→ organism maintains all 7 characteristics better.
