(ii) State the inferences from the observation in 1 (b) (i). Inference from observation 1: At the east aspect is most suitable for the growth of Lichen because it receives more light intensity, so higher rate of photosynthesis. Inference from observation 2: At the south aspect is least suitable for the growth of Lichen because it receives less light intensity, so lower rate of photosynthesis.

Population of Lichen / The total surface area covered by Lichen is low at south direction which receives low light intensity.. Population of Lichen / The total surface area covered by Lichen is higher at east direction than at the south direction because Lichen at east direction receives high light intensity so rate of photosynthesis is higher. (g) State the operational definition for population distribution of Lichen. P1 Total surface area covered by Lichen P2 Size of quadrat P Abiotic factor that influence the population distribution Sample answer: 17

18 1. Population distribution is defined as total surface area covered by Lichen (P1) within the quadrat size of 10 cm x 10 cm at different direction of compass (P2) which influence by the light intensity (P).

P1: Prediction of total surface area of Lichen P2: Effect of light intensity P: Effect on the Lichen Sample answer: Size of total surface area covered by lichen is increase / more than 60 cm 2 because Lichen receive more sunlight / light intensity, so more photosynthesis by Lichen and more growth to Lichen.

24 Question 5 : No. Questions Marks Student notes 5 Transpiration is the evaporation of water from a plant to the surroundings. The rate of transpiration is affected by environmental factors such as temperature. A group of students carried out an experiment to study the effect of temperature on the rate of transpiration. Diagram 1 shows the set up of the apparatus. An air bubble was trapped in the capillary tube. The apparatus was placed in an air-conditioned room at 20 o C. The time taken for the air bubble to move a distance of 10 cm was recorded. The experiment was repeated for a second time to get average readings. The experiment is repeated by placing the apparatus at three more different temperatures: an airconditioned room at 25 o C, an air-conditioned room at 0 o C and in a non air-conditioned room at 5 o C. Diagram 1 Table 1 shows the reading of stopwatch for air bubble to move a distance of 10 cm at different temperature 24

When temperature is 5 o C, the average time taken for air bubble to move a distance of 10 cm is 10 minutes. 26

27 . When temperature is 20 o C,the average time taken for air bubble to move a distance of 10 cm is longer than the average time taken when temperature is 5 o C (ii) State the inferences which corresponds to the observations in 1(b)(i). (c) 1. (When temperature is low), the amount of water lost from the leaf is low(p1). So the rate of transpiration is low (P2) 2. (When temperature is high), the amount of water lost from the leaf is high(p1). So the rate of transpiration is high (P2). When the temperature is higher/lower, the amount of water lost from the leaf is higher/lower. So the rate of transpiration is higher/lower when the temperature is higher/lower Complete Table 2 based on this experiment. Variable Method to handle the variable Manipulated Variable Temperature Responding Variable 1.Rate of transpiration 2. Time taken for air bubble to move a distance of 10 cm Place the apparatus/potometer at different temperature / 20 o C, 25 o C, 0 o C and 5 o C 1.Calculate and record the rate of transpiration by using formula : Distance / time 2.

Able to explain the relationship between the rate of transpiration and temperature based on the following aspects. P1 State the relationship P2 kinetic energy of water P evaporation Sample Answer When the temperature increases, the rate of transpiration increases. When the temperature increases, kinetic energy of water molecules (in the leaf) increases, causes the rate of evaporation increase. (g) Based on the result of this experiment, state the operational definition for process of transpiration. Able to define operationally the process of transpiration based on the following aspects: P1 water loss from plant at different places P2 Air bubble in capillary tube move at 10 cm P The rate of transpiration is influenced by temperature Sample Answer Transpiration is a process where water is lost from the plant when it is placed at different temperature which causes the air bubble in capillary tube move a distance of 10 cm. The rate of transpiration is influenced by the temperature.

Able to predict the outcome of the experiment based on the following aspects P1 : Correct prediction P2 : Effect P : Reason Sample Answer Time taken for air to move a distance of 10 cm is more than 10 minutes. Rate of transpiration decreases because vaselin covered the stomata/stomata closed 29
