    SECTION A (40 MARKS)
    N.B. THIS SECTION IS COMPULSORY TO ALL STUDENTS.
    1. Scientists investigated the effect of herbicide on the light-
    dependent reaction in green micro-algae, chlorella vulgaris.
    Isolated chloroplasts were placed in well buffered and isotonic
    medium and exposed to sunlight. They measured the effects of
    different concentrations of herbicide on the production of Oxygen
    and on the electron transfer chains. The graph shows the results.

    a) Compare the oxygen production and the first electron transfer


    chain. (05 marks)
    b) Describe the effect of the herbicide concentration on the
    following measurable variables.
    (i) Oxygen production. (03 marks)
    (ii) First electron transfer chain. (03 marks)
    (iii) Second electron transfer chain. (02 marks)
    c) Explain the effect of herbicides above in (a) on the following.
    (i) Oxygen production. (07 marks)
    (ii) Electron transfer chains. (10 marks)
    Adapt to the 21st Century pedagogical skills- 2023.
