Question 2 :


2 Lemna minor is a species of free-floating aquatic plants from the duckweed family Lemnaceae. The plants grow mainly by vegetative reproduction: two daughter plants bud off from the adult plant. An experiment is carried out to investigate the effect of abiotic factor such as pH on Lemna sp. growth. Experiment is done under controlled conditions: 12 hours a day light exposure and using the same Knops solution. Petri dish is filled with 20 ml Knops solution with different pH value and 5 Lemna sp. each. The Knops solution is treated by adding acid or alkali to achieve the pH value needed. ** Knops solution is a solution which contains essential nutrient for plants growth.

Figure 1 After 7 days, the observation is made and the result shown in Table 1.1 .

Question 3:


1.

A group of students conducted an experiment to study the effect of light intensity on the population distribution of Lichen on the tree trunk. He placed a 10 cm x 10 cm transparent quadrat on the East-facing surface of the tree trunk. He counted the number of squares that contained half or more than half of the areas covered by the Lichen. Square with less than half of the covered areas were not included. The procedures were repeated for the surfaces that face the direction of North (N), south (S) and west (W). Figure 1 shows how a quadrat is placed on the tree trunk. Each small square represent 1 cm2.

Question 4 :


4 An experiment was carried out to investigate the water pollution level or BOD in three different locations from a suspected polluted Rivers. Three water samples are collected from these three locations and labelled as P, Q and R as in Diagram 1.

200 ml of each sample is put in a reagent bottle and added with 1 ml of 0.1% methylene blue solution. All the bottles are kept in dark cupboard.

Observations are made every minute to see the changes in the methylene blue colour.

Question 5 :


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 20oC.

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 air-conditioned room at 25oC , an air-conditioned room at 30oC and in a non air-

conditioned room at 35oC.

Table 1 shows the reading of stopwatch for air bubble to move a distance of 10 cm at different temperature
