Number Expected answer Mark Note

1 (a) R 1
(b) Most enzyme denatures above 40 oC 1 Accept
answers
with similar
means
(c) 37oC 1 Accept
answer
between 37
39 oC
2 (a) The metabolic process is slower. High body core temperature slows down the 1 Accept
work of the enzymes. because
enzyme is
denatured
due to high
temperature
(b) The metabolic process is slower. Low body core temperature slows down the 1
work of the enzymes.
(c) The metabolic process is slower. 1
3 (a) The enzyme breaks down starch into maltose 1 Do not
accept the
term
destroying
the
substance
(b) The positive test in Benedicts and negative test of iodine 1
(c) As a control 1
To compare the result of our designed experiment to the initial reaction 1
4 (a) 1

X Y
(b) 1

(c) Temperature 1
5 (a) The higher the light intensity, the higher the rate of photosynthesis, 1
until it reaches the maximum capacity of the plant to do photosynthesis 1
(b) Photosynthesis 1
(c) Because oxygen is used by the plant in the process of respiration also 1
(d) Temperature 1
Use a water bath in certain temperature for all experiment set up 1
6 (a) Palisade mesophyll cells 1
(b) Xylem 1
(c) Wide laminae provides large surface for maximum absorption of sunlight 1
(d) Thin laminae allows the carbon dioxide diffuse into the cells quickly 1
OR
Allows the easier penetration for light
(e) The waterproof cuticle helps prevent excessive water loss by evaporation from 1
the leaf surface
OR
Ensure enough water for photosynthesis
OR
Helps to focus the light rays onto the mesophyll layer
(f) This arrangement allows gas diffusion and prevent over transpiration 1
7 (a) Fat 1
(b) Carbohydrate 1
(c) Protein 1
 (d) Fibre, water, vitamin 2 Either two
out of three
nutrients
(e) 200 g 1
(f) (i) 1100 mg 1 Unit has to
be written
(ii) Because she needs to feed the baby with enough amount of calcium for the 1
best growth and development process
8 The 1 mark

9 (a) Peristaltic movement 1

(b) X contracts and Y relaxes 1
10 (a) Small intestine 1
(b) X : vilus or villi 1
Y : lacteal or lymph capillary 1
(c) Has microvilli 1
(d) Glycerols or fatty acids 1
Absorb glycerol and fatty acids to be transported to the whole body 1
11 (a) Store bile 1
(b) Behind the liver 1
(c) Diet with less fats content 1
Because there is no bile which emulsifies fats globules, hence the fats digestion 1
will take longer time
