What about booklet B first Qn?


About the circulatory system of a fish and human what is the difference? Anyone remember?
Thanks a lot!

I wrote that fish > one direction human > circulates . (Ofc I wrote them in COMPLETE sentences xp)

Intermezzo:

DD says paper was ok.. she had about 30 min left for checking..


For the Shadow question her answer is Circle, because the size of the steel ball is larger than the square cardboard (according to the diagram).. she also says the same thing as some others here : If you just draw lines on the diagram, you can see.

For the Photosynthesis question her answer is Lack of carbon dioxide. According to her, the plant is placed IN water, so there should not be a lack of water.
Plants do give out carbon dioxide during respiration, but the amount of CO2 they take in for Photosynthesis is much larger than what they emit during respiration.

just hope she's got the right answers ~

I think science has to look at the picture carefully.. DD put carbon dioxide too. :idea:

DS said science paper was quite easy, easier than his prelims.

I'm glad PSLE is over for us.

All the best to those taking HMT. :rahrah:

Vianne77:

I just want to clarify with all of you, is it true that there is more weightage on English and Chinese? My friends and their mummies say that English+Chinese=200%, Science is 50% and Maths is 50% as well...

Oh yes, I want to ask about question: 'Which set-up should he use as a control'
What did you put?

all subjects in PSLE has the SAME weightage

Omega:

Hi! I'm a kid from P6, and I'm new here. My answer was that in a fish, the blood is pumped straight to the rest of the body from the respiratory organ (gills) but in a human, the blood is pumped back to the heart from the respiratory organ (lungs) before being pumped to the rest of the body. Hope I'm right!

P.S. Aiming for top PSLE Malay student here :xedfingers:

Wish you good luck Omega :rahrah:

[lollipop123]

i forgot

[Little Brown]

But the fish and human question they ask for DIRECTION of flow of blood

[lollipop123]

then im aiming 4 top chinese student.lol… tmr got HCL

Gravitational force question (clarifying):


We know that weight is determined by the amount of gravitational force acting on the mass of the object. Let’s put it like this: W=GF^M

We know that the mass is constant (if you’re on an aeroplane measuring your mass, it will be the same as the mass on Earth) and weight is constant (hook an object on a spring balance and lift it up and down; weight is constant), so the amount of gravitational force must also be constant, thus the answer is (4), if my memory does not fail me.
