3 (d) Charles Darwin suggested that all species of living things evolved from simple
organisms.
Darwin’s theory of evolution was not accepted for a long time.
Put ticks (P) in the table next to two sentences that explain why Darwin’s theory of
evolution was not accepted for a long time.[2 marks]
Reason Tick (3)
Scientists did not know about genes and chromosomes.
There were too many different plants and animals.
Scientists wanted more evidence before they would accept
the theory.
Photographs of the Galapagos Islands were not clear.
People could not understand his book.

4 (b) Figure 4 shows a water flea. Water fleas are tiny pond animals. Water fleas are
about 2 mm long.
Figure 4
A student did an experiment to find out if water fleas change the concentration of
oxygen dissolved in water.
The student put some water fleas into a large test tube with water.
The student connected an electronic oxygen probe through the bung. Oxygen probes
measure the concentration of dissolved oxygen in water.
The apparatus was airtight, so no gases could move into or out of the test tube.
