3. Some pupils predicted that water will evaporate faster if the surrounding air
temperature is higher.
To investigate their prediction they placed some water in containers in two

different rooms.

6. In January 2002, thousands of pupils recorded the numbers of different birds
seen in their gardens in one hour. They sent their results to the Royal Society
for the Protection of Birds who have kept data for many years.

in January.
Give two factors which are being controlled in this survey.

8. Until 1781 scientists thought there were only six planets in the solar system.
Then a scientist called Herschel looked through a very large telescope that
could turn to follow objects in space.
He watched a bright object in the night sky for a few months and made
drawings of what he saw. He concluded it was a planet.

The reading on the voltmeter depends on the reactivity of the two
metals touched.
The bigger the difference in reactivity, the higher the reading on
the voltmeter.

(b) Some athletes take glucose tablets before a 100 metre race.
They can also obtain glucose from starch in their diet.
A starch molecule is made up of many glucose molecules joined together
as shown below.

14. Almost 200 years ago, an important investigation into plant growth was
carried out.
George Sinclair, the Duke of Bedford’s head gardener, planted seeds in

242 plots of land, each four feet square.
Charles Darwin concluded from this investigation:
If a plot of ground is sown with one species of grass and a similar

plot is sown with several different species of grass, the second
plot will produce a greater number of plants and a greater mass
of plant material.
(a) Give one feature of the plots that was controlled in Sinclair’s
investigation.
