SCIENCE
Adaptation of Animals and Plants
1. ❌ Flowers only open during the heat of the day → (They actually open
at night to avoid heat)
2. ❌ They have big feet to produce high pressure on the snow → (They
have big feet to spread weight → low pressure)
3. ❌ The stems and leaves are hairy to prevent water loss → (They’re hairy
to trap heat, not water)
4. ❌ They are tall so that it is easy to spot predators → (They’re tall to
reach leaves)
5. ❌ They have long eyelashes to attract other camels → (They’re for
protection from sand)
6. ❌ The hard shell can't protect them → (It does protect them)
7. ✅ A habitat
8. ❌ Hedgehogs eat insects and worms - they are herbivores → (They’re
insectivores, not herbivores)
9. ❌ It loses its leaves in autumn to save food → (It loses leaves to save
water/energy, not food)
10. ❌ The dark coloured feathers reflect heat from the sun → (They
absorb heat, not reflect it)
Food Chains and Webs
1. ✅ Producers
2. ✅ Carnivores
3. ✅ Animals and plants
4. ❌ Lion (because the others are herbivores)
5. ✅ Grass → Rabbit → Fox
6. ✅ The primary consumer
7. ✅ The secondary consumer
8. ✅ The top carnivore
9. ✅ Slugs will increase in number
10. ❌ In a food web, arrows can point in any direction → (They always
show the direction of energy flow)
Adaptations for Survival (IG)
1. ✅ It has spikes which hurt the animal
2. ✅ Brown fur in summer and white fur in winter for camouflage
3. ✅ A territory
4. ❌ Carbon dioxide (rarely limiting in nature)
5. ✅ Makes sure that the predator or prey cannot see it as easily
6. ✅ Reduced leaf surface area
7. ✅ Carbon dioxide
8. ✅ Mimicry
9. ✅ Nutrients
10. ✅ Some extremophiles can tolerate high temperatures
Photosynthesis (IG)
1. ✅ Carbon dioxide concentration
2. ✅ Plants and algae
3. ✅ Growth
4. ✅ Oxygen
5. ✅ Nitrate
6. ✅ Starch
7. ✅ Soil
8. ✅ The chloroplasts
9. ✅ Light
10. ✅ Temperature
✅ Controlled Variable (IG)
1. independent variable
2. Any factor involved in the experiment
3. Age and lifestyle
4. Volume
5. Size of seeds and time
6. valid
7. constant
8. fair
9. size
10. all the factors apart from the dependent and independent
variables
✅ Independent Variable (IG)
1. number of seeds
2. Mass
3. the variable that is changed by the experimenter
4. unreliable
5. a factor we can change or measure or control
6. the same
7. key variable
8. changing
9. x axis
10. Key independent variable and control variables
✅ Forces – Forces and Motion
1. The newton
2. Speed
3. a = (v - u) ÷ t
4. 2 m/s²
5. 500 N
6. Speed in a given direction
7. Both mass and resultant force
8. 65 kg
9. Acceleration
10. F=m×a
✅ Biology – Adaptation (IG)
1. Light
2. The thorns are there to stop animals from eating the rose plant
3. Extremophiles
[Link] body
[Link] protection
[Link], nutrients, space to grow and light
[Link] is camouflage to stop their prey spotting them
[Link] air muffles sound so it needs bigger ears to hear (least likely)
[Link] because their normal food and habitat has been replaced by
farmers' crops
10. A characteristic that is useful to an organism
✅ Biology – Energy in Food Chains (IG)
1. Very little of it
2. The flow of energy
3. 800g, 45g, 3g, 0.0005g
4. Light to chemical
5. 5%
6. The Sun
7. The biomass of the ladybirds is less than the biomass of the rose plant
8. 0.000375%
9. Water, carbon dioxide and chlorophyll
10. A plant or algae
✅ Biology – Environmental Change (AQA)
1. The water is very polluted
2. Burning fossil fuels
3. All of the above
4. The number of farmland birds has decreased
5. On trees in the countryside
6. Acid rain
7. They will find somewhere else to live
8. It can be used as an indicator species for pollution
9. Readings can be taken automatically
10. pH
3 The masses for all species are lower where there are no mangroves. The biggest
difference is for yellowtail, where the mass is less than half of that where there
.
are mangroves on the shore
4 When no mangroves are present,
there is no habitat for the baby fish to
develop safely from predators, so fewer
baby fish grow to become adults, and
there are fewer adult fish on the coral
reef.
3. Individuals of the species will have
spread all over the country, so it can be
very difficult to find them all and kill
them. People may become fond of the
introduced species, and not want it to be
killed.
