    INSTRUCTIONS TO THE CANDIDATES:


    This paper consists of section A and B.

    Candidates are advised to read questions carefully, organize
    their answers and present them precisely and logically,
    illustrating with well labelled diagrams wherever necessary.

    Adapt to the 21st century pedagogical skills. 1


    SECTION A (40 MARKS)
    N.B THIS SECTION IS COMPULSORY TO ALL STUDENTS.
    1. In an experiment to investigate the reaction of Starch and
    cellulose. Starch and Cellulose were crushed in warm water and
    filtered to obtain the filtrate. Enzyme Amylase was added to
    separate filtrates of starch and cellulose. The concentration of
    starch was monitored at 350c and 500c while that of cellulose was
    monitored only at 350c. The results of the experiment are shown
    below. Study the graph carefully to answer questions below.

    a) Compare the relative Concentrations of cellulose and Starch at


    350c. (03 marks)
    b) Describe the effect of Amylase enzyme on the relative
    concentrations of the following.
    (i) Cellulose.
    (ii) Starch. (05 marks)
    c) Explain the effect of Amylase on the relative concentration of
    (i) Starch at 500c
    (ii) Cellulose at 350c
    (iii) Starch at 350c (17 marks)

    d)(i) Calculate the average rate of breakdown of starch by amylase


    for the first 1o minutes at both temperatures. (03 marks)

    (ii) Suggest why cellulose and starch were crushed into a filtrate.
    (02 marks)
    e) Explain the adaptations of the following to their roles.
    (i) Starch (05 marks)
    (ii) Cellulose. (05 marks)
    SECTION B (60 MARKS)
    Choose three questions from this section.
    2a) Describe the properties 0f water which makes it a good temperature
    buffer. (10 marks)
    b) Explain the following observations.
    (i) Non-ionic substances dissolve in water.
    (ii) Water forms a skin at its surface.
    (iii) Water molecules are sticky and wet. (10 marks)

    3a) (i) What is meant by Compartmentalization of cells? (03 marks)


    (ii) How do the hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties of phospholipids
    explain the basic structure of the cell membrane?
    (07 marks)
    b) Explain the key roles of the chemical components of the cell membrane.
    (09 marks)
    4a)(i) Describe the structure of an enzyme molecule. (05 marks)
    (ii) Point out the Classification of enzymes basing on the type of
    reactions they catalyse. (06 marks)
    b) Explain the effect of inhibitors on the rate of enzyme-controlled reaction.
    (09 marks)

    5a) Describe the major components of connective tissues. (03 marks)


    b) Describe the classification of covering epithelia basing on
    (i) Cell Shapes.
    (ii) Cell arrangements. (07 marks)
    c) Explain the adaptations of the following tissues to their roles.
    (i) Collenchyma cells. (03 marks)
    (ii) Parenchyma cells. (05 marks)
    (iii) Sclerenchyma cells. (02 marks)

    Adapt to the 21st century pedagogical skills. 3


    6)a) Differentiate between cytokinesis and nuclear division. (05 marks)
    b) Explain the role of the following concepts as related to nuclear division.
    (i) Advantages of two sets of chromosomes.
    (ii) Homologous chromosomes increase variation. (07 marks)
