IG+-+Standard+Practicals

Edexcel IGCSE - Standard Practicals
These are the standard practicals you need to be familiar with
 * Topic code || Topic name || Code || Outcome ||
 * 2c || Biological molecules || 2.7 || describe the tests for glucose and starch ||
 * 2c || Biological molecules || 2.11 || describe experiments to investigate how enzyme activity can be affected by changes in temperature. ||
 * 2d || Movement of substances into and out of cells || 2.16 || describe experiments to investigate diffusion and osmosis using living and non-living systems. ||
 * 2e || Nutrition - Flowering plants || 2.22 || describe experiments to investigate photosynthesis, showing the evolution of oxygen from a water plant, the production of starch and the requirements of light, carbon dioxide and chlorophyll ||
 * 2e || Nutrition - Humans || 2.32 || describe an experiment to investigate the energy content in a food sample. ||
 * 2f || Respiration || 2.37 || describe experiments to investigate the evolution of carbon dioxide and heat from respiring seeds or other suitable living organisms. ||
 * 2g || Gas exchange - Flowering plants || 2.43 || describe experiments to investigate the effect of light on net gas exchange from a leaf, using hydrogen-carbonate indicator ||
 * 2g || Gas exchange - Humans || 2.48 || describe experiments to investigate the effect of exercise on breathing in humans. ||
 * 2h || Transport - Flowering plants || 2.56 || describe experiments to investigate the role of environmental factors in determining the rate of transpiration from a leafy shoot. ||
 * 5a || Food production - Micro-organisms || 5.6 || describe a simple experiment to investigate carbon dioxide production by yeast, in different conditions. ||
