Infectious Diseases
What is the most infectious disease in the world
N/A
What is the main purpose of cellular respiration?
To release energy from glucose to make ATP.
This term describes the process by which the body maintains a stable internal environment.
Homeostasis
Which organism posses cell walls and what is its purpose?
It is found in plant cells, and it provides structural support, protection and shape to cells.
What part of the mouth is in charge of Mechanical Digestion?
Teeth and tongue
What is the basic unit of life?
The cell

What is the difference between infectious and non-infectious diseases?
Infectious diseases are transmitted from one organism to another through pathogens, whereas non-infectious are caused by inheritance, nutritional or environmental factors
Where does most of cellular respiration take place in the cell?
In the mitochondria.
When your blood sugar rises after eating, this hormone is released to lower it back to normal.
Insulin
What are the differences between a plant and animal cell?
Plant cells have a rigid cell wall and chloroplasts, while animal cells do not. Plant cells have a large central vacuole and can perform photosynthesis; animals have smaller vacuoles and rely on other organisms for nutrients.
What are enzymes sensitive to?
PH and Temperature
Which part of the cell controls what enters and leaves?
The cell membrane.
What is the most famous theme park in the world?
Disneyland
What does virulence mean?
Virulence describes the ability of the pathogen to cause disease. Virulence can be affected by factors of both the pathogen and the host. (The strength of a pathogen).
What gas is needed for cellular respiration?
Oxygen
Name two ways the body responds to an increase in body temperature.
Sweating and vasodilation (widening of blood vessels)
What are the similarities in a plant and animal cell?
They both have a cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, ribosomes and mitochondria. They are both eukaryotic cells.
How does lowered temperature affect enzymes?
Slows particles down and reduces energy.
What is the main function of ribosomes in the cell?
Ribosomes make proteins for growth and repair.

How does vaccination protect individuals and communities from infectious diseases?
Vaccination introduces harmless antigens (weakened, killed, or subunit forms of a pathogen) into the body, stimulating the adaptive immune system to produce memory B and T cells. This means that if the person later encounters the real pathogen, their immune system can respond rapidly and effectively, preventing illness. On a community level, widespread vaccination creates herd immunity, which reduces disease transmission and protects vulnerable groups such as infants, elderly, and immunocompromised individuals.
What are the main products of cellular respiration?
Carbon dioxide, water, and ATP.
This part of the brain acts as the control centre for regulating temperature, thirst, and other homeostatic functions.
The hypothalamus
What is the difference between a cell wall and cell membrane?
Cell membrane is an outer membrane and fragile it controls the passage of coming and going out of the cell, it is made up of a phospholipid bilayer. Cell wall is permeable, it is non-living and quite thick in plant cells, it supports and protects the membrane.
Where is DNA Polymerase found?
Found in the nucleus
What is the difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells do.
This large country is the world's leading producer of bananas?
India
What is the difference between the innate and adaptive immune response to infection?
The innate immune response is the body’s first line of defence3, acting immediately and non-specifically (e.g., barriers like skin, phagocytic cells, inflammation, fever). The adaptive immune response is slower to activate but highly specific, involving B cells (producing antibodies) and T cells (killing infected cells and regulating responses). Importantly, the adaptive system forms immunological memory, providing long-term protection against future infections by the same pathogen.
What is the starting molecule for cellular respiration?
Glucose.
Explain the difference between negative feedback and positive feedback and give one example of each.
Negative feedback reverses a change (e.g., blood glucose regulation), while positive feedback amplifies a change (e.g., contractions during childbirth)
What are vacuoles and the function?
Vacuoles are larger and solid filled, and fluid filled bounded by membrane spaces which act as storage mainly for water. The function helps store food, pigment, water and other waste substances.
Where is Bromelain found?
In pineapple cells.
Why do plant cells have both mitochondria and chloroplasts?
Chloroplasts make glucose during photosynthesis, and mitochondria release energy from that glucose during respiration, so both are needed for survival.
