of the Exercise 1: Effect of temperature on the enzymatic activity
Q
1 -students should 2
Temperature 0 20 37 45 60 choose the 5
in 0C points, if they
Enzymatic 0 20 100 15 0 chose all points on
activity in % x-axis take off
0.5 pts.
Title: This table shows the variation of enzymatic activity in % as a -If they didn’t
function of temperature in 0C. write the title take
off 0.5 pts
2.1 The enzyme is inactive at 0 0C. -If the student 0.5
2.2 The enzymatic activity is maximal at 370C. writes (False) 0.5
2.3 The enzyme is slowly/partially active at 20 0C. only, he/she does 0.5
2.4 True not get any mark. 0.5
-If the student does
not write the
complete corrected
statement, he/she
gets no marks.
3 The most convenient temperature for maximal activity of the enzyme is 1
the normal body temperature 370C.

of the Exercise 2: Digestion
Q
1 A: Protein (trypsin acts on protein). - 0.5 pts for each 1.5
B: Starch (amylase acts on starch). type with
C: Lipids (since lipase acts on lipids). justification.

2.1 Maltose. 0.5

 2.2 - 0.25 for each 1.5
enzyme.
-0.25 for each
molecule.
-0.25 for the title.

This document shows the complete digestion of starch.

2.3 Digestive organ: Small intestine. 0.5
3 The time (40 minutes) was not enough for the complete digestion of -if the student says 0.75
lipids. it need more time
Or Lipids need 120 minutes not 40 minutes for complete digestion. the answer is
accepted.
4 Leave the tube for more time. If the student 0.25
proposes, adding
Bile the answer is
accepted.

of the Exercise 3: Respiratory Gas Exchange
Q
1 At level of (lungs) alveolus:(0.25) - If the student 1.5
- O2 passes from alveolar air to blood capillaries.(0.25) uses the term lung
- CO2 passes from blood capillaries to alveolar air.(0.25) or alveolus & the
At level of tissues: (0.25) term tissues or
- O2 passes from blood capillaries to body cell.(0.25) cells the answer is
- CO2 passes from body cell to blood capillaries.(0.25) accepted.
2 Diffusion: is the passage of a gas from a medium of high concentration of If the student does 1
this gas to a medium of low concentration of the same gas. not mention of the
same gas take off
(0.25).

3 The pressure of O2 in blood entering tissues is 100 mmHg, which is more If students used 2
than that in the blood leaving the tissues, which is 40 mmHg. (0.5) the terms increase
On the other hand, the pressure of CO2 in blood entering tissues is 40 or decrease, the
mmHg which is less than that in blood leaving the tissues which is 45 answer is not
mmHg.(0.5) accepted.
I conclude that the tissues(cells) consume O2 and release CO2.(1)

4 Both blood leaving lungs & blood entering tissues are Oxygenated. -0.25 For each 0.5
Both blood entering lungs and blood leaving tissues are Deoxygenated. term.
- If the student
says the blood
leaving lungs is
the same as blood
entering tissues
and blood entering
lungs is the same
as blood leaving
tissues the answer
is accepted.

of the Exercise 4: Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome
Q
1.1 Obesity (0.5) 1
1.2 Breathing at an abnormally slow rate (0.5)
2.1 Carbohemoglobin (0.5) If the arrow is not 1
2.2 HB +CO2 HBCO2 (0.5) reversible, take off
0.25 pts.
3.1 The % of O2 saturation decreases from 98% to 87% as the BMI increases 1
from 25 kg/m2 to 45 kg/m2.
3.2 The obese people with high BMI suffer from excess weight on the chest, - If the student 1.5
this make it harder for them to take a deep breath (0.25), so the amount of does not use the
O2 entering the lungs is less than normal (0.5) this causes a lower % of O2 documents take off
binding to hemoglobin in the blood (0.25). Hence, a low amount of oxygen 0.5 pts.
reaches the organs, which causes the feeling of fatigue.
4 Try to lose weight. 0.5
