    1. The document describes an experiment investigating photosynthesis using a variegated leaf. It involves testing which parts of the leaf photosynthesize by placing it in different solutions and observing the results. 2. A separate experiment is described using three culture solutions - A with all minerals, B lacking nitrates, and C lacking magnesium - to test the necessity of mineral salts for plant growth. The leafy shoots were observed over four weeks. 3. A diagram is shown of the human heart labeling different structures, and questions assess the labeling and functioning of the heart chambers and valves.

    1. Fig. 13.1 shows a longitudinal section of a leaf.

    (a) Why is it an advantage to have:


    i) Most chloroplasts in the palisade layer?
    …………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
    ….………………………………………………………………………………………………….. [1]

    ii) Most air spaces in the spongy layer?


    …………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
    ….………………………………………………………………………………………………….. [1]

    b) High temperatures may slow the rate of photosynthesis. Suggest possible reasons for this.

    …………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
    ….………………………………………………………………………………………………….... [1]

    c) The vascular bundle and turgid cells provide support to the leaf. Explain how this adapts
    the leaf for efficient photosynthesis.
    …………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
    ….………………………………………………………………………………………………….. ..[2]
    Shows a variegated leaf, which was used to investigate the necessity of a certain condition for
    photosynthesis

    A. Name the condition that was under investigation

    ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… [1]

    B. A student tested a leaf to find out which parts had been photosynthesising. Describe the
    four steps he would take, and give reasons for each step

    Step Reason
    1

    [8]
    C. State the expected observation

    ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… [1]

    Write down the a well-balanced equation of photosynthesis

    ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… [2]

    What’s the purpose of sodium hydroxide carbonates and soda lime in the investigation of
    photosynthesis?

    ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

    …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….… [2]

    2. A student used three culture solution A, B & C to investigate the necessity of mineral
    salts for plant growth. Three leafy shoots were put in the culture solutions treated as
    follows:

    A solution with all mineral salts


    B solution lacking nitrate ions
    C solution lacking magnesium ions

    The leafy shoots were exposed to the same conditions of growth for four weeks. Air was
    bubbled through the solutions.

    (a) Which plant will show the healthiest growth?

    ………………………………………………………………………………………[1]

    (b) Describe and explain the appearance of

    (i) Plant B
    Appearance ……………………………………………………………………

    Explanation…………………………………………………………………[2]

    (ii) Plant C
    Appearance ……………………………………………………………………

    Explanation…………………………………………………………………[2]
    (c) Why was it necessary to bubble air through the solutions during the experiment?

    ………………………………………………………………………………………[1]

    (d) What was the purpose of plant A?

    ………………………………………………………………………………………[1]
    (e) (i) Name the process by which the plant take up mineral salts.

    ………………………………………………………………………………………[1]

    (ii)State two ways in which the process in (i) differs from osmosis.

    …………………………………………………………………………………………

    …………………………………………………………………………………………

    ……………………………………………………………………………………….[2]

    3. Fig shows a cross section of human heart

    (a) State the name of the structure labelled V and X

    V……………………………………………………………………………………[1]

    X……………………………………………………………………………………[1]

    (b) Explain how the structure of the left ventricle enables it to pump blood to distant parts
    of the body.
    …………………………………………………………………………………………
    ………………………………………………………………………………………[1]

    (c) State Two structural difference, apart from presence of valves between the part
    labelled W and Y.

    …………………………………………………………………………………………

    …………………………………………………………………………………………

    ………………………………………………………………………………………[2]

    (d) On the fig use arrows to show the movement of deoxygenated blood in and out the
    heart.[1]
