(2) (11) 3.2 Brassica plants have hair on their leaves to reduce transpiration. The number of hairs on the leaves varies from plant to plant. An investigation was conducted to determine whether artificial selection could increase the number of plants with more hair on their leaves. The students carried out the following procedure: • 180 Brassica plants were selected randomly. • The number of hairs present on the edge of each mature leaf was counted per plant, and an average was calculated. • The number of plants, with different averages, was counted and recorded. • The plants with more than 25 hairs per leaf were separated from the rest of the group and allowed to cross-pollinate. • The seeds produced by these plants were germinated and allowed to grow into mature plants. 180 of these plants were selected randomly. • The number of hairs present on the edge of mature leaves was counted per plant and the average number of hairs was calculated again. The number of plants with different averages was counted and recorded. The results of the investigation are shown in the table below.

If the whole process is given when only a part of it is required Read all and credit the relevant part. 4. If comparisons are asked for, but descriptions are given Accept if the differences/similarities are clear. 5. If tabulation is required, but paragraphs are given Candidates will lose marks for not tabulating. 6. If diagrams are given with annotations when descriptions are required Candidates will lose marks. 7. If flow charts are given instead of descriptions Candidates will lose marks. 8. If the sequence is muddled and links do not make sense Where sequence and links are correct, credit. Where sequence and links are incorrect, do not credit. If sequence and links become correct again, resume credit. 9. Non-recognised abbreviations Accept if first defined in answer. If not defined, do not credit the unrecognised abbreviation, but credit the rest of the answer, if correct. 10. Wrong numbering If the answer fits into the correct sequence of questions, but the wrong number is given, it is acceptable. 11. If the language used changes the intended meaning Do not accept. 12. Spelling errors If recognisable, accept the answer, provided it does not mean something else in Life Sciences or if it is out of context. 13. If common names are given in terminology Accept, provided it was accepted at the national memo discussion meeting. 14.
