10 LIFE SCIENCES P2 (EC/NOVEMBER 2020) 2.3 Potatoes are a staple food in many countries including Peru. The International Potato Centre in Lima, Peru is a seedbank that stores 4 500 different varieties of potato seeds. Many of these varieties are not used as farmers prefer to use only a few varieties which grow well. Most farmers practise monoculture and grow only one variety of potato. To collect the potato seed, the fruit or potato berry is picked and ripened. The seeds can remain viable for many years. The diagrams below show the potato berry (Diagram A) the potato seeds inside the berry (Diagram B) and the potato flower (Diagram C). DIAGRAM A DIAGRAM B DIAGRAM C U P S Q T R V 2.3.1 Name the plant division to which potatoes belong. (1) 2.3.2 Provide labels for the whorl labels U and V in Diagram C.

(EC/NOVEMBER 2020) LIFE SCIENCES P2 13 QUESTION 3 3.1 Read the extract below and study the graph showing the zebra and lion population in Parkwood Game Reserve over a period of 65 years. The most important reason that lions are able to find enough food is that they usually do their hunting cooperatively. Normally, several lions circle around the herd they are attacking, slowly driving their victims towards the lionesses hiding in the tall grass. These lionesses then attack their prey from the sides or the rear. Lions are not fast predators. By working in groups they are able to tackle prey that would otherwise prove to be too fast for them. Lions also gain another advantage through group hunting when they kill an animal too large for one lion to tackle on its own. Zebras are one of the major prey of lions. The graph below shows the number of zebras and lions in Parkwood Game Reserve over a period of 65 years. Graph showing the zebra and lion populations in Parkwood Game Reserve from 1950–2015 400 350 Number of animals 300 B 250 200 150 A 100 50 1950 1955 1960 1965 1970 1975 1980 1985 1990 1995 2000 2005 2010 2015 0 Year 3.1.1 Give TWO reasons mentioned in the extract why the social structure (hunting together) of lion prides makes them successful hunters.

Explain ONE reason why living in herds is an advantage. (2) 3.1.7 Explain why the chances of the zebra and lion population reaching carrying capacity is limited. (3) 3.2 3.2.1 Define the following: (a) Global warming (1) (b) Food Security (3) 3.2.2 Name the main gas produced by humans that is responsible for global warming. (1) 3.2.3 Explain how global warming has a negative effect on food security. (5) 3.3 The spread of Invasive Alien Plants (IAP) in the water catchment areas of South Africa is concerning. In a country that is already water scarce this means less water available for agricultural and domestic use. A recent study of the Olifants River catchment area looked at the water consumption of some of the most invasive species (measured in m3 per hectare) and the area that they invade (measured in hectares). The results are shown in the table below. Invasive Alien Water consumption Area invaded by plants Species (m3 / hectare) (hectares) Arundo donax 1 155 5 406 Eucalyptus sp. 1 250 116 Pinus sp. 2 550 752 Populus sp. 645 358 Salix babylonica 830 358 3.3.1 State the: (a) Independent variable (1) (b) Dependant variables (2) Copyright reserved Please turn over

(3) 3.3.4 Draw a suitable graph to show the water consumption of the various invasive alien species in the Olifant’s River catchment area.
