step guide to GM
(worth 4 marks)
Unpicking the Question
At least 6
statements
about science in
your answer
1. This question is about genetic modification
Explain how bacteria can be genetically modified to
produce human insulin.
Suggest benefits of using human insulin rather than
insulin extracted from animals.
(6 marks)
2 reasons why it is used (think science proteins and their shape)
(The quality of written communication will be assessed
in your answer to this question)
Logical order, uses key words, good spelling, good punctuation
The Science - Genetic Engineering
1. Isolate the desired
gene using enzymes
4. Transfer vector containing
gene into bacteria
2. Replicate the gene
3. Put gene into vector
(eg a plasmid)
5. Bacteria will now produce the
protein from the desired gene
Decide: which two of the following are
relevant to the question being asked?
Suggest benefits of using human insulin rather
than insulin extracted from animals.
Using human insulin is better because vegetarians will be able to
use it too
Human insulin will be an exact match for the insulin needed by
the diabetic person, animal insulin is a slightly different shaped
protein
It isn’t right to kill pigs to collect insulin from them
The immune system might reject or attack the pig insulin as the
protein is a different shape to human insulin
Explain how bacteria can be modified to produce human insulin.
Suggest benefits of using human insulin rather than insulin extracted
from animals (6 marks QWC).

How did you do compared to
your first attempt?
Now take what you know and apply it!
Organisms can be genetically engineered to make them more
useful to humans.
Suggest how wheat could be genetically engineered to allow it to
grow in wet, marshy land (6 marks QWC)
Mark scheme - mark your own
this time
Identify a gene that allows a plant to grow in wet/marshy areas.
Isolate/extract/cut out the gene with a restriction
(endonuclease)/enzyme
Replicate the gene
Insert desired gene into a vector (eg plasmid/virus)
Transfer vector/plasmid containing desired gene into wheat/crop
Crop plant will now produce/synthesis protein that allows it to
grow in wet/marshy conditions

2 - Daunting Data and Grim Graphs
Why is the volume
at it’s highest here?
Tell me what you see, using
numbers from the graph
(ii) Describe the effect of
temperature on the volume of juice
produced between 10°C and 40°C (2)
(iv) Use the lock and key hypothesis
to help you explain the activity of
pectinase in juice production
between 10°C and 70°C (6)
What is
happening to the
enzymes here?
What is happening
Use Science to tell me why
to the enzymes
you see this pattern
here?
Student Model Answers
Student A
a) As the temperature increases, the volume of juice produced increases.
b) Between 10oC and 40oC the enzymes are gaining kinetic energy meaning they are moving
around faster and will form more enzyme-substrate complexes. At 70oC the enzymes have
been denatured and don’t work anymore.
Student B
a) The volume of juice produced increases as the temperature increases. At 10oC 0.6cm3 is
produced and at 40oC 2.7cm3 of juice is produced.
b) The enzyme has a specific active site and the substrates will only fit into the active site if it
hasn’t been denatured by getting too hot. On the graph it denatures when it goes down.
Before that, the enzyme works faster as it gets hotter.
Student C
a) The graph goes up and then goes down again. It goes up between 10oC and 40oC from 0.6 to
2.7.
b) The enzyme works faster as the temperature gets hotter. From 10oC to 40oC the enzymes
gain kinetic energy so collide with each other more often, forming more enzyme-substrate
complexes. The substrate fits into the active site, but when it gets too hot the enzyme
denatures and the active site changes shape meaning that no more enzymes-substrate
complexes will be formed. The graphs dips down after 50oC when the enzyme denatures.
Mark the student
answers and give
each a WWW

Now write your own response to the questions
(ii) Describe the effect of
temperature on the volume of juice
produced between 10°C and 40°C (2)
(iv) Use the lock and key hypothesis
to help you explain the activity of
pectinase in juice production
between 10°C and 70°C (6)

Daughter cells are genetically identical to parent cells
Produces cells with only half the number of chromosomes
Produces gametes
The cell goes through one division
Produces 4 daughter cells that are genetically different
Produces diploid cells
Is a process within the cell cycle
Occurs in the ovaries and testes
The cell goes through two divisions

(ii) Complete the sentence: A gene is a section of DNA that codes for ……………………(1)
(b) Mutations can cause genetic disorders in humans. Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a
genetic disorder caused by a gene mutation. People with PKU produce an inactive
enzyme.
The normal base sequence and the mutated base sequence which can cause PKU are
shown below.

mutated base sequence ....... C T T G G C C C T .......
(i) Describe how the changes that have occurred in the mutated base sequence
produce an inactive enzyme (2)

• change in a base from C to T (1)
• (causes) change in one {codon/triplet} of bases (1)
• results in a different amino acid (1)
b) ii) next page
c) An explanation linking the following points
• active site {different / blocked / changed} (1)
• substrate cannot bind /eq (1)
An explanation linking some of the following points
• enzymes are proteins
• mutation in DNA will result in different mRNA strand
• during transcription
• mRNA leaves the nucleus through the nuclear pore
• the attachment of mRNA at the ribosomes
• involvement of tRNA and amino acids
• at the ribosome
• which is translation
• amino acid chain/peptide sequence altered
• different protein formed/protein not folded correctly
(6)
QWC 5 - 6 marks
 the response is likely to indicate the type of mutation and link this to a change of
codon/protein
 the response will show good evidence of understanding that an incorrect mRNA
molecule is formed and translation by tRNA will result in an incorrect amino acid
being incorporated into the protein chain
 the answer communicates ideas clearly and coherently uses a range of scientific
terminology accurately
 spelling, punctuation and grammar are used with few errors
