Biology Paper 3
Answering Technique

1a) Measuring Using Numbers
Record all the data given correctly.
Correct accuracy and consistency.

bi) Observation
State any two different observations correctly according to the
criteria:
Must state the value of MV and RV (observable)

bii) Making Inferences
Make one inference for each observation based on the criteria
Must state MV and RV (non-observable)

c) Variables

Variables Method to handle the variable correctly
MV Use the different (MV)
RV Measure and record (observable RV) by using
(apparatus)
Or
Calculate and record (non-observable RV) by
using formula (___)
FV Use the same (FV)
Or
Fix the (FV) at (___)

d) Making Hypothesis
State a hypothesis to show a relationship between the MV and RV
and the hypothesis can be validated based on 3 criteria
o MV (P1)
o RV (P2)
o Relationship (H)




ei) Communicating
Construct a table by using the criteria given:
o T : State all the title/aspects given with the correct unit
o D : State all data for the aspects given
o C : All calculation correct

eii) Correlating space and time
Draw the graph correctly with the following aspects:
o P : Uniform scales on both horizontal and vertical axis
o T : All points plotted correctly
o B : Able to join all the points to form a smooth graph

f) Interpreting data
Explain the relationship between MV and RV based on the criteria
o R : Relationship
o E1 : Explanation 1
o E2 : Explanation 2

g) Predicting
Predict and explain the outcome of the experiment correctly
o P1 : Prediction
o P2 : Explanation 1
o P3 : Explanation 2

h) Defining by Operation
Define operationally based on the results and the following criteria:
o C1 : based on observation
o C2 : relationship between MV (affected by)
o C3 : relationship between RV (measured by)

i) Classification
