Transport mechanisms — practice question

Table 1.1 shows cell structures that may occur in eukaryotic cells or in prokaryotic cells. A number of these structures are shared by both cell types.
(a)[2]

Use a tick (✓) to indicate that the cell structure can be found in a given type of cell and a cross (\times) to show that it cannot. Every box must contain a tick or a cross. The first row has already been filled in.

(b)[3]

On the space given, draw the region shown in box R on Fig. 1.1. Your sketch must include the four dark lines, and the labels should identify the dark lines and each of the three spaces between them.

(c(i))[2]

Describe what occurs in the $\text{G}_1$ phase and S phase of the mitotic cell cycle.

(c(ii))[1]

Because of a mutation, mitogen production and release into the blood may rise sharply. Predict a likely effect on target cells when mitogen concentration in the blood increases.
