  1. 🌱 Life Science (Set 2)

    1. B – Mitochondria
    Mitochondria are the “powerhouses” of the cell — they release energy by breaking down glucose.

    2. C – Circulatory system
    It transports oxygen, nutrients, and waste through the blood.

    3. B – Producers
    Plants make their own food through photosynthesis, forming the base of food chains.

    4. C – 75% brown, 25% blue
    Bb × Bb → BB, Bb, Bb, bb → 3 brown : 1 blue.

    5. B – Common ancestry
    Fossil evidence shows whales evolved from ancestors that once walked on land.

    ⚡ Physical Science (Set 2)

    6. C – Electron
    Electrons are negatively charged and orbit the nucleus.

    7. B – Paper burning
    Burning creates new substances (ash, CO₂) = chemical change.

    8. C – Potential
    A stretched rubber band stores energy = elastic potential energy.

    9. A – Acceleration
    Acceleration is a change in speed or direction of motion.

    10. B – The other bulbs go out
    In a series circuit, current has only one path. If one bulb fails, the whole circuit is broken.

    🌍 Earth & Space Science (Set 2)

    11. B – Geosphere
    Mountains, volcanoes, and earthquakes belong to Earth’s solid part = geosphere.

    12. B – Carbon dioxide
    Cutting trees reduces CO₂ absorption → more CO₂ in atmosphere.

    13. B – Uneven heating of Earth’s surface
    Warm air rises, cool air sinks → causes convection currents = wind.

    14. B – It reflects sunlight
    The Moon does not produce its own light, it reflects the Sun’s light.

    15. B – Earth’s rotation on its axis
    Earth spinning once every ~24 hours causes day and night.
