All Quiet on the Western Front

When Ben Ross shows his pupils a film about the persecution of the Jews, they can’t believe it could happen again. So Ben experiments with a new disciplinary system to show pupils how powerful group pressure can be. To his surprise, his pupils respond to his orders and before long ‘The Wave’ sweeps through the entire school. Only a few distrust the movement and recognise the violent undercurrents.

Based on a true incident, this is excellent reading for GCSE.

The impact of this astonishing novel about the First World War is as great as ever. In it, the distinguished German author tries, in his own words, ‘simply to tell of a generation of men, who even though they may have escaped its shells, were destroyed by the war’.

CALENTAMIENTO GLOBAL, CAMBIO CLIMÁTICO Y DESASTRES NATURALES

TEMAS TRONCALES: ASUNTOS GLOBALES

Inundación

Datos Interesantes En la mitología maya Huracan o Hurakan (él de una pierna) fue el dios del fuego, viento y de las tormentas.

Es representado como un ser con cola de serpiente y también de aspecto reptil, porta, un objeto humeante (posiblemente una antorcha) y una gran corona. De su nombre proviene la palabra huracán que designa al fenómeno meteorológico.

Según la mitología, fue uno de los dioses que participaron en la creación del hombre a partir del maíz.

Hurakan había enviado El Gran Diluvio maya, un diluvio universal, enviado para destruir a los primeros hombres que habían enfurecido a los dioses. El había vivido en las nubes sobre la inundada Tierra mientras la repetía empujando el agua hasta las costas originales.

Una inundación es un desastre natural causado por la acumulación de lluvias y agua en un lugar concreto. Puede producirse por lluvia continua, una fusión rápida de grandes cantidades de hielo, o ríos que reciben un exceso de precipitación y se desbordan, y en menos ocasiones por la destrucción de una presa. La inundación de gran magnitud más reciente es la Inundación de Tabasco y Chiapas (México) de 2007, que ocurrió entre el 28 de octubre y el 27 de noviembre del 2007, a causa de crecidas históricas en los ríos que recorren ambas entidades. El desastre se dio en la capital tabasqueña, la ciudad de Villahermosa y en los municipios del extremo norte de Chiapas.

Sobre el efecto Coriolis El efecto Coriolis, descrito en 1836 por el científico francés Gaspard-Gustave Coriolis, es el efecto que se observa en un sistema de referencia en rotación (y por tanto no inercial) cuando un cuerpo se encuentra en movimiento respecto de dicho sistema de referencia.

Incendios forestales

Sequía

Cuando un bosque se quema, algo suyo se quema, señor Conde. ¿Cuál crees que es la diferencia entre los dos lemas?

Se cree que cada año muchos de los incendios forestales son provocados.

En muchos casos, en esas zonas se consiguen permisos para construir casas poco después.

Visual stimuli such as photos and graphics engage students and illustrate key concepts.

Section A:

The natural environment and people Chapter 1: River environments 1.1 The hydrological cycle

Introduction

Fresh water is essential for life on Earth. This water is constantly being recycled as it moves through a cycle known as the hydrological cycle or water cycle. This is a global circulation of water − it is a giant closed system (Figure 1.1).

This means that there is a fixed amount of water in the system because water neither enters nor leaves the Earth and its atmosphere.

This chapter is about rivers. They are a vital part of the global circulation of water. They are responsible for the creation of landforms found throughout the world. They are valuable to us because they supply much of the water we use in our everyday lives. At the same time, because of the risk of flooding, they can become hazards that threaten people and their settlements.

the atmosphere – here the water exists either as water vapour or as minute droplets in clouds the land – here water is stored on the surface in rivers, lakes and reservoirs. Water is also taken in by plants and temporarily stored in vegetation. It is also stored below ground in the soil or bedrock. This is known as the groundwater store. Generally speaking, water exists in these stores in a liquid form. However, it can also exist in a solid form as snow and ice, as for example in ice sheets, glaciers and snowfields.

Supply shifts can also have important effects on price and quantity.

In Figure 3.5, the market for rubber ducks shows the effect of synthetic rubber production. Synthetic rubber is much cheaper than rubber collected from rubber trees, so it becomes much less costly to produce rubber items, including rubber ducks. As a result, the supply of rubber ducks shifts to the right. A temporary surplus 7 million ducks exists at the old equilibrium price of $3.75. This surplus is eliminated by cutting prices and selling off the excess supply. Consumers do their part by buying up the residual amounts at successively lower prices, an increase in quantity demanded at each lower price. The increase in supply therefore results in a lower equilibrium price for rubber ducks at $2.25, and a higher equilibrium quantity of 12 million sold.

S1 Perhaps the greatest single supply shock in the modern era occurred with the 1973 oil crisis.

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) launched an embargo of oil in response to US support of Israel during the Yom Kippur War. The price of oil quadrupled to a then-record $12 per barrel. This resulted in long queues, price controls and rationing in the US, Europe and Japan. It also stoked inflationary tendencies at work during this period, and is credited with starting the era of stagflation.

Fundamentals

U A A

complement of a given set A is the set of all elements in the universal set that are not elements of set A, and is denoted by the symbol A9. Venn diagrams are used to pictorially represent the relationship of sets within a universal set. The universal set, U, is represented by a rectangle and any subset of U is represented by the interior of a circle within the rectangle (see Figure 1.3).

If for a certain problem the universal set is the complex numbers C, then the complement of the real numbers is the imaginary numbers. For problems in secondary school mathematics, and in this course, the universal set will often be a subset of the complex numbers – commonly the real numbers R. If the universal set is the real numbers, then the set of irrational numbers is the complement of the rational numbers Q. See Figure 1.2.

Figure 1.3 Venn diagram for the universal set U, set A, and the complement of A, A9 (shaded region).

Although the set {2, 3} is equal to the set {3, 2}, the ordered pairs (2, 3) and (3, 2) are not the same. Hence, for the Cartesian product of two sets A and B, in general, A 3 B  B 3 A.

Hint: The symbol for the union of two sets, , can be remembered by connecting it with the first letter in the word ‘union’.

The intersection of sets A and B, denoted by A  B and read ‘A intersection B’, is the set of all elements that are in both set A and set B. The union of two sets A and B, denoted by A  B and read ‘A union B’, is the set of all elements that are in set A or in set B (or in both). The set that contains no elements is called the empty set (or null set) and is denoted by [. Sets whose intersection is the empty set, i.e. they have no elements in common, are disjoint sets.

The Cartesian product of two sets A and B is the set of all ordered pairs {(a, b)}, where a  A and b  B. It is written as A 3 B 5 {(a, b) | a  A, b  B}.

For example, if X 5 {1, 2} and Y 5 {3, 4, 5}, then

X 3 Y 5 {(1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5)}

Venn diagrams are named after the British mathematician, philosopher and writer John Venn (1834–1923). Although he was not the first to use diagrams as an aid to problems in set theory and logic, he was the first to formalize their usage and popularized them in his writings such as in his first book Symbolic Logic published in 1881.

Hint: When we list the elements of a set we never repeat an element.

For example, for A  B in Example 3 the numbers 2 and 8 are in both A and B but they are each written once when listing the elements in A  B.

In Example 3, instead of defining sets U, A, B and C using lists, we could have defined each of the sets using a rule. For example, U 5 {x | 1 < x < 13, x  Z}, A 5 {x | x 5 3n 2 1, n 5 1, 2, 3, 4}, B 5 {x | x 5 2n, 1 < n < 6 and n  Z}, and C 5 {x | x < 13, x is a prime number}.

Inequalities (order relations) An inequality is a statement involving one of four symbols that indicates an order relation between two numbers or algebraic expressions on either side of the symbol. The symbols are , (less than) . (greater than) < (less than or equal to) > (greater than or equal to).

Student Book End of Chapter Checklist

Section B: Some Essential Background Chemistry Chapter 10: Making Salts

You should now be able to:

The importance of knowing whether a salt is soluble or insoluble in water You will remember that acids react with carbonates to give a salt, carbon dioxide and water. In the case of calcium carbonate (for example, marble chips) reacting with dilute hydrochloric acid, calcium chloride solution is produced.

CaCO3(s) + 2HCl(aq) → CaCl2(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)

✓ know which salts are soluble and which are insoluble in water ✓ give practical details of how you would make a pure, dry sample of a salt from the reaction

This chapter looks at some of the practical problems in making pure samples of salts in the lab. Remember that a salt is what is formed when the hydrogen in an acid is replaced by a metal. For example, sulfates come from sulfuric acid, chlorides from hydrochloric acid, and nitrates from nitric acid.

titration method

✓ describe how to make pure, dry samples of insoluble salts using precipitation reactions ✓ write ionic equations for precipitation reactions.

Chapter 10: Making Salts

If you try the reaction between calcium carbonate and dilute sulfuric acid, nothing much seems to happen if you use large marble chips. You will get a few bubbles when you first add the acid, but the reaction soon stops.

between a suitable solid (metal, metal oxide, metal hydroxide or metal carbonate) and an acid

✓ know which salts can be made by this method ✓ describe how to make pure, dry samples of sodium, potassium or ammonium salts using a

Chapter 10: Making Salts

Soluble and insoluble salts

Questions 1 Sort the following compounds into two lists – those that are soluble in water, and those that are insoluble. sodium chloride, lead(II) sulfate, zinc nitrate, calcium carbonate, iron(III) sulfate, lead(II) chloride, potassium sulfate, copper(II) carbonate, silver chloride, aluminium nitrate, barium sulfate, ammonium chloride, magnesium nitrate, calcium sulfate, sodium phosphate, nickel(II) carbonate, chromium(III) hydroxide, potassium dichromate(VI) 2 a) Describe in detail the preparation of a pure, dry sample of copper(II) sulfate crystals, CuSO4⋅5H2O, starting from copper(II) oxide.

Figure 10.1 Calcium carbonate reacting with dilute hydrochloric acid.

The problem is that the calcium sulfate produced in the reaction is almost insoluble in water. As soon as the reaction starts, a layer of calcium sulfate is formed around the calcium carbonate, stopping any further reaction. layer of insoluble calcium sulphate acid particles can’t get at the calcium carbonate

b) Write full equations for (i) the reaction producing copper(II) sulfate solution, (ii) the crystallisation reaction.

Figure 10.2 Calcium carbonate not reacting with dilute sulfuric acid.

original calcium carbonate

Figure 10.3 The reaction between calcium carbonate and sulfuric acid.

Any attempt to produce an insoluble salt from the reaction between a solid and a liquid will fail for this reason.

3 a) Read the following description of a method for making sodium sulfate crystals, Na2SO4⋅10H2O, and then explain the reasons for each of the underlined phrases or sentences.

You may have noticed that the bottle in the right-hand photograph is labelled as ‘sulphuric acid’ rather than ‘sulfuric acid’. You must expect to come across both versions of this name. ‘Sulphuric’ is the traditional English spelling.

25 cm of sodium carbonate solution was transferred to a conical flask using a pipette, and a few drops of methyl orange were added. Dilute sulfuric acid was run in from a burette until the solution became orange. The volume of acid added was noted. That same volume of dilute sulfuric acid was added to a fresh 25 cm3 sample of sodium carbonate solution in a clean flask, but without the methyl orange. The mixture was evaporated until a sample taken on the end of a glass rod crystallised on cooling in the air. The solution was left to cool. The crystals formed were separated from the remaining solution and dried.

3

How quickly the reaction stops may well depend on the size of the marble chips (because that affects the surface area), the concentration of the acid, the volume of acid added, and the amount the flask is shaken.

This would make an interesting investigation – particularly if you could then explain any pattern in your results.

DNA replication

Figure 3.13 The first step of DNA replication is helicase unzipping the doublestranded DNA molecule forming a section with two single strands.

Assessment statements 3.4.1

3.4.2 3.4.3

Interesting fact Helicase may catalyse the unzipping of DNA at a rate measured in hundreds of base pairs per second.

Key Fact DNA must replicate before any cell divides. This means that DNA replication precedes binary fission for prokayotes, mitosis for many eukaryotic cells and meiosis for eukaryotic gamete producing cells.

Explain DNA replication in terms of unwinding the double helix and separation of the strands by helicase, followed by formation of the new complementary strands by DNA polymerase.

Explain the significance of complementary base pairing in the conservation of the base sequence of DNA. State that DNA replication is semiconservative.

DNA replication involves ‘unzipping’ Cells must prepare for a cell division by doubling the DNA content of the cell in a process called DNA replication. This process doubles the quantity of DNA and also ensures that there is an exact copy of each DNA molecule. You should try to picture the environment in which the DNA is actually replicating. This is the environment of the nucleus during interphase of the cell cycle. During interphase, there is a nuclear membrane which separates the fluid of the nucleus (nucleoplasm) from the cytoplasm. The DNA is in the form of chromatin (not tightly coiled chromosomes). Among the variety of molecules present in the nucleoplasm there are two types that are particularly important for the process of DNA replication; they are: enzymes needed for replication – these include helicase and a group of enzymes collectively called DNA polymerase; free nucleotides – these are nucleotides that are not yet bonded and are found floating freely in the nucleoplasm, some contain adenine, some thymine, some cytosine and some guanine.

One of the early events of DNA replication is the separation of the double helix into two single strands. You should remember that the double helix is held together by the hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs (A and T, C and G). The enzyme that initiates this separation into two single strands is called helicase. Helicase begins at a point in or at the end of a DNA molecule and moves one complementary base pair at a time, breaking the hydrogen bonds so the double-stranded DNA molecule becomes two separate strands.

Helicase (currently at about the half-way point in this image) would have started on the left and be moving towards the right.

The unpaired nucleotides on each of these single strands can now be used as a template to help create two double-stranded DNA molecules identical to the original. Some people use the analogy of a zipper for this process. When you pull on a zipper, the slide mechanism is like helicase. The separation of the two sides of the DNA molecule are like the two opened sides of a zipper (see Figure 13).

Formation of two complementary strands As shown in Figure 13, once DNA has become ‘unzipped’, the nitrogenous bases on each of the single strands are unpaired. In the environment of the nucleoplasm, there are many free-floating nucleotides. These nucleotides are available to form complementary pairs with the single-stranded nucleotides of the unzipped molecule. This does not happen in a random fashion. A free nucleotide locates on one opened strand at one end and then a second nucleotide can come in to join the first. This will require that these two nucleotides become covalently bonded together as they are the beginning of a new strand. The formation of a covalent bond between two adjoining nucleotides is catalysed by one of the DNA polymerase enzymes that is important in this process.

A third nucleotide then joins the first two and the process continues in a repetitive way for many nucleotides. The other unzipped strand also acts as a template for the formation of another new strand. This strand forms in a similar fashion, but in the opposite direction to the first strand.

Notice that one strand is replicating in the same direction as helicase is moving and the other strand is replicating in the opposite direction.

A small section of DNA (shown in the centre) is seen in a DNA polymerase enzyme.

Significance of complementary base pairing The pattern of DNA replication ensures that two identical copies of DNA are produced from one. Figure 14 illustrates a very small section of DNA replicating.

Notice that in the area where replication has already taken place, the two strands are absolutely identical to each other. This is because the original double– stranded molecule had complementary pairs of nucleotides and it was the complementary nucleotides that used the unzipped single-stranded areas as templates.

This also means that no DNA molecule is ever completely new. Every DNA molecule after replication consists of a strand that was ‘old’ now paired with a strand that is ‘new’. DNA replication is described as a semiconservative process because half of a pre-existing DNA molecule is always conserved (saved).

A typical synovial joint.

Skeletal muscles are those attached to bones and are normally arranged in antagonistic pairs. This means that there are pairs of muscles which pull in opposite directions. Flexors contract to flex, or bend a joint, e.g. biceps in the arm; extensors contract to extend, or straighten a joint, e.g. triceps in the arm.

Remember that muscles can’t stretch themselves. It is the pull created by the contraction of the antagonistic muscle that stretches a muscle when it is in a relaxed state.

The prefix myo- refers to ‘muscle’ and sarco- to ‘flesh’ (i.e. muscle) so specialist terms starting with myoor sarco- will refer to structures within muscles.

Each skeletal muscle is a bundle of millions of muscle cells called fibres. Each muscle cell may be several centimetres long and contains several nuclei. It contains many myofibrils which are made up of the fibrous proteins actin (thin filaments) and myosin (thick filaments). The cell surface membrane of a muscle cell is known as the sarcolemma. The sarcoplasmic reticulum is a specialised endoplasmic reticulum which can store and release calcium ions. The cytoplasm inside a muscle cell is called the sarcoplasm. The specialised synapse (see page 63, Topic 8) between neurones and muscle cells is called the neuromuscular junction.

79

The sliding filament theory of muscle contraction The functional unit of a muscle fibre is called a sarcomere.

When the muscle contracts the thin actin filaments move between the thick myosin filaments, shortening the length of the sarcomere and therefore shortening the length of the muscle.
