11 6. A woodlouse is a small animal. The rate of respiration of a woodlouse can be measured using a simple respirometer as shown in the figure below. As the woodlouse respires the drop of coloured liquid moves along the capillary tube. a) Record the position of the drop of coloured liquid in the capillary tube shown in the figure at the start and after 30 minutes. (1m) start ........................................................ mm after 30 minutes ..................................... mm b) Calculate the distance moved by the drop of coloured liquid in 30 minutes. (1m) distance moved ................................................... mm c) Calculate the rate of movement of the drop of coloured liquid in mm per minute. Give your answer to one decimal place. (2m) Space for working.
12 d) The rate of movement of the drop of coloured liquid along the respirometer can be used to estimate the rate of respiration. A student used a respirometer to investigate the rate of respiration in four animal species. The results are shown in the table below. Calculate the missing mean for animal species A. (1m) e) Plot a bar chart on the grid to show the mean rate of movement of the drop of coloured liquid in the capillary tube for the four animal species. (3m)
