(a) A short circuit is an accidental direct connection between live and neutral wires with near-zero resistance, resulting in dangerously high current flow. (b) 1. Frayed, worn-out, or damaged insulation on cables. 2. Overloading multi-plug sockets with heavy appliances. (c) Ordinary water contains dissolved minerals and is a good electrical conductor, which will shock and electrocute anyone attempting to put out the fire.

💡 Examiner Deduction Warning: Never use water on electrical fires—use dry powder or carbon dioxide fire extinguishers.

✅ Official UNEB Section B Scoring Guide (Total: 4 Marks):

(a) A fracture is a broken or cracked bone in the body. [1 mark] (b) In a simple fracture, the broken bone remains inside unbroken skin; in a compound fracture, the broken bone tears through muscle and pierces outside through the skin. [1 mark] (c) (i) Splints: Immobilize and hold the broken bone in one fixed position to prevent movement. [1 mark] (ii) Arm sling: Supports, immobilizes, and elevates a fractured or injured arm. [1 mark]
