B
2a
Stomach, Pancreas, Small intestines, Gall bladder.
2 correct [1] 3 correct [2] all [3]

b
Gall bladder store bile which break down large fats molecules into droplets [1] [1]without this organ the person diet should avoid fats [1]

c
Bile makes fats easier to digest [1] / break down large fats droplets to small ones [1]. Lipase digests fats into fatty acids and glycerol[1].

d
Gastric juice in stomach produces hydrochloric acid.Hydrochloric acid is sour[1].
Gastric juice has protease which digests protein into peptones[1].Lumpy mass is because food is not digested fully[1].

Day 4, Day 32 [1]

bi
Fertilisation has taken place [1]

bii
the increase in the lining of the uterus in preparation for the growth of the baby.[1]


SECTION C (20 marks) only select 2 questions

C
1a
(i) When mongooses were introduced, they ate the mice which were in abundance. [1] Thus population of mongoose began to increase while the number of mice was reduced. [1] As the number of mice became scarce, the mongoose started to feed on the lizards [1] and ground nesting birds[1] and even snakes [1], thus reducing their population. As a result, the insects population started to grow, causing more harm to the plants [1].


B i
Plants à insects àground nesting birds à snakes àmongooses
Any 2 correct [1] four correct [2] all [3]

ii
Before introducing a species into the habitat, every detail about the species [1], e.g its eating habits , its reproduction rate and impact of that organism on other species [1] (both plants and animals) should be studied.




2

a
To test if the white powder is corn starch, put 2 drop of iodine solution on the powder [1] the yellowish brown iodine solution will changed to bluish black[1]
To test if the white powder is baking soda, add the white powder to a tablespoon of vinegar[1], bubbles are observed [1]
To test if the white powder is sugar, heat the white powder the powder will turned brown then black upon heating [1]
If all the tests above are negative results, the white powder is likely a salt[1]
[1x4=4]

b
As condensation occurs, the gases particles lose energy [1].
The forces of attraction between the particular are stronger and the particles come closer together [1] and re-arranged a liquid state [1] in which the distance between the particles are smaller as compare to the gases particles[1]

3
a
(i)Ovary [1]; Produce eggs and female hormones.[1]
(ii) The other ovary can still produces eggs.[1] The egg from this ovary can still be fertilised.[1]



Millions of sperms deposited into vagina [1]by penis during sexual
intercourse[1].
Sperms swim pass uterus[1] to fallopian tubes and cluster around mature egg[1]. Fertilisation occur in the oviduct [1] when
the fusion of nuclei of sperm and egg[1].
