UNIT 3 – SIGNATURES OF LIFEArea of Study 1 ~ Molecules of Life OUTCOME 1: Students should be able to analyse and evaluate evidence from practical investigations related to biochemical processes.

The chemical nature of the cell Synthesis of biomacromolecules including: Polysaccharides Nucleic acids Proteins

Structure & function of lipids Structure & function of DNA & RNA Structure & functional diversity of proteins The proteome

The role of organelles and plasma membranes in the packaging and transport of biomolecules

The nature of biochemical processes Enzymes Energy requirements of cells Anabolic & Catabolic reactions Energy transformations involved in:

Photosynthesis Cellular respiration

ATP-ADP cycle Factors affecting rate of energy transformations

Applications Molecular biology in medicine Drug design Medical Diagnosis

Area of Study 2 ~ Detecting & Responding OUTCOME 2: Students should be able to describe and explain coordination and regulation of an organism’s immune responses to antigens at the molecular level.

Coordination and regulation Stability and change in the internal environment Homeostasis Stimulus response model & Negative feedback model Roles of nervous and endocrine systems Signalling Molecules Neurotransmitters Hormones Pheromones Plant growth regulators Signal transduction & Membrane Receptors

Detecting self & non-self molecules Antigens & membrane receptors Pathogens Control of pathogens

Physical & chemical barriers to infection in plants and animals

Immune Response Structure & function of Lymphatic System Non-Specific Immunity

Inflammation Phagocytosis Blood clotting

Specific Immunity T-cell lymphocytes & cell mediated response B-cell lymphocytes & humoral response Antigens & antibodies Memory cells

Disorders of the immune response Autoimmunity Hypersensitivity & allergic responses

Acquired Immunity Natural Artificial immunity

Vaccines Antibody serums

Page 16: Year 12 biology early comm presentation intro only

UNIT 3 EXAMINATION Students will answer a series of questions relating to all Areas of Study in Unit 3.

The task is designed to assess students’ understanding of the key knowledge that underpins the outcomes in Unit 3 and the set of Key Skills. The duration of the exam will be 1½ hours. The exam will be marked by a panel appointed by the Board of Studies. ***The end-of-year exam contributes 33% to the final assessment. ***School assessed coursework for Unit 3 contributes 17% to the final assessment.
