Superb Jhs Science mock examination questions and answers
Solution to question number one a, Superb Jhs Science mock examination
a. I. Identification of teeth
Molar or premolar
Ii. Identification of parts of teeth
I- pulp cavity
II- blood vessels
III- dentine
IV- enamel
III. Functions of parts
Pulp cavity– supplies the teeth with blood and make the teeth sensitive to hot and cold temperature.
Blood vessels– supplies the teeth with nutrients and oxygen
Dentine- provides support to the enamel
Enamel- hard substance that protects the teeth against decay or damage.
IV. Uses of the human teeth
– grinding food
– bitting food
– cutting food
– chewing food
– tearing food
Solution to question number one b.
b. I. Explanation of the three changes of state
A- melting- it is the change of state of matter from solid to liquid
B- evaporation- it is the change of state of matter from liquid to gas
C- condensation– it is the change of state of matter from gas to liquid
Ii. What will be seen on M with explanation
Drops of water is collected on M, this is because water vapour escaping from vessel is trapped and condenses.
III. Factors that affect the process at state B.
– atmospheric pressure
– surface area
– temperature
– density of liquid.
– speed of wind
– humidity
IV. Benefits of the process at stage B.
– evaporation of sea water gives us salt for several Uses
– water evaporates from washed clothing to make them dry.
– human body produces sweats when the internal temperature is high in order to regulate the internal body temperature.
– evaporation dries our sweat to keep our bodies cool
– During distillation, alcohol evaporates to be separated from water.

Solution to question number one c.
c. I. Phenomenon being demonstrated
Pressure in fluids
Ii. Observation made in setup A and B
In setup A, water comes out of the holes at the same speed and springs at the same depth but in setup B, water comes out of the holes at different speeds or springs at different distances.
III. Conclusion drawn in setup A and B
Setup A – pressure in fluids act equally at all directions at the same depth
Setup B- pressure in fluids increase with depth.
IV. Factors that affect pressure in fluids
– Density of liquids
– the depth of the fluid.
– the surface area of the fluid
V. Useful application of the phenomenon
– car jack
– hydraulic jack or press.
– enema
– hydraulic brakes
Solution to question number one d.
d. I. Bed prepared with organic manure
Bed A.
Ii. The plant on that bed looks healthier
III. Observed growth features in A.
– the plant grows faster
– leaves look dark and green.
– stem looks strong
– the plant will yield well
IV. Observed growth features in B.
– stunted growth
– leaves look pale yellow
– stem looks weak.
– Poor fruits and seeds formation
V. Conclusion
Organic manure increases the fertility of soil.
