Qn Answer
29a The seed leaf provides/stores food for the baby plant/seedling.
The seed leaf provides food for the seeds to germinate.
The seed leaf provides food for the young plants until its true leaf appear.
NOT accepted:
Provide food for seed [seed is not growing, it does not need food]
Store food for the seed to survive
Stores food for the plant [“plant” does not specify the stage. Adult plant does not need food
from seed leaves]
29bi The young of Fish T has stored food
29bii The young of Fish W has [COMPARISON – comparative words are needed]
- larger fins /more well-developed body parts
- a more streamlined body
- longer tail
- more fins
AND
- can escape from its predator
[Must have both points to get 1 mark]
30ai When the temperature increases from 30°C to 35°C, the number of bacteria M increases but
when the temperature increases from 35°C to 45°C, the number of bacteria M deceases.
The temperature of the small intestine of 37oC was within the range of 35oC – 40oC where the
bacteria reproduced the fastest.
OR
1
The bacteria grows fastest at 35oC. The temperature of the small intestine at 37oC is near 35oC,
the bacteria reproduce quickly.
32a Nucleus
32bi Pollination is the process where pollen grains are transferred to the stigma
32bii Ovule
32c Characteristics/Traits/Genes/Genetic information from the red flower has been passed down
through the seeds to the young plants.
33a Air is breathed in through the nose and transported to the lungs through windpipe.
(2) Oxygen in air is taken in and absorbed into the blood at the lungs during gas exchange
Blood rich in oxygen is transported to the legs when the heart pumps the blood around the
body.
33b Less blood goes to the small intestine so absorption of (digested food) is less.
Roots Flowers
Photosynthesis is a process where carbon dioxide and water is used to produce sugar and
oxygen in the presence of light and chlorophyll.
34bii When the food carrying tube is damaged, no/less food from the leaves will be transported to
the roots. The roots die and cannot absorb water for the leaves to make food.
Or
When the water carrying tube is damaged, the water absorbed by roots cannot be transported
to the leaves for photosynthesis. No/less food from the leaves will be transported to the roots.
34c During the day, temperature is higher, so the stomata closes to reduce water loss.(1)
(2) At night, when the temperature is lower, the stomata opens to take in carbon dioxide and
stored it for use during photosynthesis.(1)
2
35a The metal lid gained heat from the hot water faster/more than the glass jar. [need to give the
direction of heat transfer]
The metal lid expands more than the glass jar.
[NOTE]: Both glass jar and metal lid gains heat, not just the metal lid!
2nd point
The outer surface of the glass expanded more than the inner surface of the glass.
OR The glass cracked due to the uneven expansion
36a Evaporation takes place at any/different/all temperature but boiling takes place at fixed
temperature /boiling point.
Or
Evaporation of water takes place at any/different/all temperature but boiling takes place at
100°C.
38b The pin acts as a pointer to allow the length of the spring to be measured accurately.
[NOTE] There is NO elastic potential energy on metal disc. Elastic potential energy is
possessed only by stretch / compressed spring/elastic bands
3
38d 1st point.
(2) The metal disc will move upwards a shorter distance (1m)
2nd point
For the same mass removed, Q reduced its length less than P (0.5m).
Q was more stiff (0.5m) .
[NOTE] Part (d) is is asking you to compare the difference if one plate is removed using
spring Q compared to Spring P. It is not asking you to compare the swinging as seen in part
(c).
OR
39bi M
[NOTE] Material of the plank must NOT be the same as it is the changed variable!
40c Lower the metal rods into the container / add water into the tank, so that the metal sheet can
touch the metal rods / close the circuit with less water from the rain.
