Delivery tube Thermometers
Stoppers Boiling tubes
Test tube A
Test tube B
Paraffin oil
Lime water Set A
Lime water Set B
5 cm3 yeast suspension + 5 cm3 boiled glucose solution
5 cm3 distilled water + 5 cm3 boiled glucose solution
Diagram 1.1 The thermometer readings and the observations on the lime water were taken at 0 minute and 30 minutes. Diagram 1.2 shows the observations made on the lime water.

(b) (i) Based on Table 1.3, state two observations that can be made on Set A in the experiment. [3 marks] Observation 1 on Set A: At 30 minutes, the thermometer reading is 37 ºC, higher than at time 0 minute / has increased.
Observation 2 on Set A: At 0 minutes, the lime water has not changed into chalky, compared to 30 minutes.
(ii) State the inference for each observation made in (b) (i).
[3 marks]
Inference for observation 1 on Set A: At 30 minutes, the temperature increased because heat was produced from the respiration of yeast / anaerobic respiration of yeast.
Inference for observation 2 on Set A: At 0 minutes, the CO2 content in the lime water had not increased from the respiration of yeast / anaerobic respiration of yeast.
(c) Complete Table 1.4 to show the variables involved in the experiment and how the variables are operated. [3 marks] 4551/3

2. Aquatic plants carry out photosynthesis to obtain food. In the process, oxygen bubbles are released to the aquatic environment. The rate of photosynthesis is affected by several environmental factors such as temperature, light intensity and concentration of carbon dioxide.
Design an experiment to determine the effect of carbon dioxide concentration on the rate of photosynthesis. (17 marks)
