mass of rice seedlings.
When the amount of fertilizer used is increase, the growth rate is increase.
This is because the fertilizer contains more macronutrients and
micronutrients. The nutrients are used for plant to form new cells and
tissue for growth.
Growth rate is the dried mass of rice seedlings per day. The growth is
shown by the mass of rice seedling after 10 days. The dried mass is
affected by the amount of fertilizer used

1. Different location of slides have different number of solid particles as seen under a
microscope (10x10)
2. Different location of slides influence / affect the number of solid particles as seen under
a microscope (10x10

Able to draw a bar chart with 3 criteria:
P Correct title of x-axis and y-axis with unit and uniform scale 1 mark
on the axis
x-axis: places where the glass slide is located

Places where
Air- Classroom School School slide is located
conditioned canteen car park
room
Sample answer:
1. In set A/air-conditioned room, the number of solid particles seen under microscope
(10x10) is lowest thus the existence of air pollutants (dust, soot, smoke) also less and
not polluted.
2. In set D/ school car park, the number of solid particles seen under microscope (10x10)
is highest. This is because the exhaust fumes emit large amount of soot and particles as
a result of combustion of fossil fuels.
3. In set B/classroom contain few number of solid particles seen under microscope (10x10)
is because the doors and the windows are closed thus less dust and particles in the
environment.
4. In set C/ school canteen, the number of solid particles seen under microscope (10x10) is
higher compared to in set B/ set A because it was an open air which contains more
particulate matter.
Able to state clearly but less accurate the relationship between any two criteria 2
Sample answer:
R+any 1
1. In set A/air-conditioned room / set D/ school car park, the number of solid particles seen E
under microscope (10x10) is lowest.
Criteria Score
Able to state the definition of air pollution operationally, complete and correctly based on 3
the following criteria:
Sample answer:
1. Air pollution is an air sample with the presence of solid particles and the level of air
pollution is affected by the location where the glass slides are placed. The higher the
number of the solid particles, the higher the level of air pollution.
Sample answer:
1. Air pollution is the number of solid particles seen under microscope (10x10) which
influence / affected by different place.
2. Air pollution is shown by the place where the glass slide is located and the number of
solid particle.
Able to state air pollution operationally base on 1 criterion or able to state the idea of the air 1
pollution
Sample answer:
1. Air pollution is shown by the place where the glass slide is located
2. Air pollution is the number of solid particles seen under microscope (10x10)
Sample answer:
P: The number of solid particles seen under microscope (10x10) is 50 (more compared to
set D)
C1: Because in the construction area there will be more particulate matter (soot, dirt, dust)
compared to set D.
C2: This indicates that area has highest level of air pollution compare to other place.
The number of solid particles seen under microscope (10x10) is 50 (more compared to set
D)

QUESTION 2
(i)Identify Able to write a problem statement relating the manipulated variable to the 3
problem responding variable correctly.
statement
P1 (MV) : different sources of water
Sample answers:
1. What are the effect different sources of water on the level of water
pollution?
Sample answers:
Sample answers:
P2 (RV) : the time taken for the time taken for the methylene blue solution to
decolourise
Sample answers:
1. The water source from Station B has highest level of water pollution
compare to water sample from station A and C.
2. The water source from Station C has lowest level of water pollution
compare to water sample from station A and B.
Sample answers:
2. The higher the water sources, the higher the level of water pollution /
time taken of methylene blue to decolourise
3. The water sources affects the the level of water pollution / time taken
of methylene blue to decolourise

3. The reagent bottles are filled with the following water samples with the K1
same volume of:
4. The three reagent bottles are wrapped with aluminium foil / black paper to K1
shield the samples from light to prevent the photosynthesis carried out by the
algae in the water samples K5
5. Same volume of 1ml of methylene blue solution is added to the base of K2, K1, K5
each water sample.
7. The test is run for all the water samples on the same day. K2
8. The three bottles are placed inside a cupboard and the stopwatch is started. K5 , K3
11. All the data are tabulated // are recorded into the table. K3
12. The faster the time taken for methylene blue solution to decolourise for K3
the sample the higher the level of water pollution.
