C. Short question: (6 marks)
The diagrams below shows the chromosome set found in two cells, A and B.
In cell A In cell B
Fuse to form
In cell C
The diagram above shows a complete set of chromosomes in a human body cell.
a. Suggest what sex cell A and sex cell B are. (2)
b. Name cell C after cell A and cell B fuse together. (1)
c. How many chromosomes are there in each human body cell? (1)
d. Does the body cell belong to a man or a woman? Explain briefly. (2)
a Cell A: ovum 1m
Cell B: sperm 1m
b A zygote 1m
c 46 1m
d This cell belongs to a man 1m
because there is a Y chromosome in the sex chromosomes. 1m
D. Structured Question: (22 marks)
1. The diagram below shows a light microscope. (7 marks)
E
F
B
a Using the letters provided, state which parts of the microscope are responsible for
i for making adjustments in focusing. (2)
ii reflecting and adjusting the amount of light entering the microscope. (2)
b The total magnification of the microscope is 600X, if the magnification of the of Part A is
15x. What is the magnification of Part B? Show your calculations. (3)
1 a i E and F 2m
ii C and D 2m
b Total magnification = Magnification of Part A (the eyepiece) X
Magnification of Part B (the objective)
Magnification of Part B (the objective) 1m
= 600÷15
= 40X 2 m (with unit)

microscope. He draws diagrams of the cells as shown below. (7 marks)
