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

(a) (i) Two parallel lines: one long thin line (+) and one short thick line (-). (ii) A line with a gap and a raised lever not making contact. (b) 1. Each bulb operates at full voltage and glows brightly. 2. If one bulb burns out or is switched off, the remaining bulbs in other branches stay on.

💡 Examiner Deduction Warning: Independent branch operation is the main advantage of parallel circuits.

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

(a) Testosterone. (b) Any two of: Deepening/breaking of the voice, growth of facial hair (beards), broadening of shoulders/chest, or initiation of sperm production. (c) Any one of: Growth of pubic hair, growth of hair under the armpits, or pimples on the face.

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

(a) Lukewarm water. (b) Lukewarm water opens up sweat pores to let out excess body heat, whereas very cold water causes shivering (which reflexively increases internal body heat production). (c) Any two of: Passing out stools with blood and mucus, severe abdominal/stomach pain, high fever, or vomiting. 📝 Would you like me to compile these exact exam questions into a printable PDF assessment worksheet for your class's end-of-term revision?

✅ 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]

💡 Examiner Deduction Warning: In (a), writing 'a broken bone' without mentioning 'cracked' loses precision. In (c)(i), 'keeps bone in one position' is the official mark-earning phrase.

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

(a) Afforestation is the massive planting of trees in an area where there have never been trees before. (b) (i) To get land for farming and settlement (ii) To get wood fuel (firewood and charcoal) and timber. (c) Tree roots that absorb excess rainwater are destroyed, and bare soil easily allows rapid surface runoff into rivers and lakes.

💡 Examiner Deduction Warning: Mark strictly on environmental cause-and-effect.

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

(a) To suck out foul odours from the pit and expel them high into the air. (b) To trap flies so they cannot escape and spread disease germs. (c) (i) Wind blowing across the top of the vent pipe draws out smelly gases continuously (ii) The latrine interior is kept dark, forcing air currents up the pipe.

💡 Examiner Deduction Warning: Classic 4-mark UNEB sanitation question.

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

(a) (i) Biceps (ii) Triceps [2 marks - Reject: Flexors / Extensors] (b) Muscles produce movement and locomotion // Cardiac muscles pump blood // Diaphragm/intercostal muscles aid breathing // Sphincter muscles control urine release [1 mark] (c) Prevents bone deformities // Prevents backaches, neck, and chest pains // Aids proper food digestion // Helps internal organs function properly [1 mark]

💡 Examiner Deduction Warning: In part (a), candidates who write 'flexors and extensors' score 0. Examiners require the proper anatomical names: Biceps and Triceps.

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

(a) Silting is the deposition and accumulation of eroded soil particles into water bodies. (b) Soil erosion (triggered by cultivating or overgrazing near river banks). (c) Any one of: Blocks the oxygen supply to aquatic animals. Destroys aquatic habitats and breeding grounds. Exposes fish to predators due to cloudy/turbid water.

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

(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) The tin can crushed / collapsed inward. (b) Cold water condensed the steam inside into liquid water, creating a partial vacuum (low air pressure) inside. The higher atmospheric air pressure outside crushed the can inward. (c) Condensation (gas/steam turning into liquid water).

💡 Examiner Deduction Warning: A classic 4-mark PLE question.

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

(a) Raised dish drying rack (or Plate stand). (b) (i) Keeps plates away from crawling insects, dogs, and chickens (ii) Prevents mud and dust splashes from dirtying clean plates. (c) The ultraviolet (UV) rays of sunlight kill harmful bacteria on the plates.

💡 Examiner Deduction Warning: Award 4 marks for complete sanitation rationale.

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

(a) Siltation is the deposition and accumulation of eroded soil particles into water bodies. (b) Soil erosion. (c) Any two of: It causes flooding in local compounds. It blocks food and light for aquatic life. It reduces the oxygen supply to fish, leading to death.

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

(a) Primary Health Care. (b) (i) Community participation (ii) Affordability / Accessibility / Equity / Appropriate technology. (c) Because preventive measures (sanitation, clean water, immunisation) cost very little compared to expensive drugs and hospital admission.
