(2ci)
BUCCAL CAVITY:
(PICK ANY TWO)
(i) The buccal cavity is the entry point for food and liquids into the digestive system.
(ii) The buccal cavity is responsible for chewing or masticating food.
(iii) The buccal cavity contains salivary glands that produce saliva.
(iv) The buccal cavity plays a vital role in speech production.

(2cii)
DUODENUM
(PICK ANY TWO)
(i) The duodenum receives partially digested food from the stomach and continues the process of digestion.
(ii) The duodenum is involved in the absorption of nutrients from digested food.
(iii) The duodenum plays a role in regulating the overall process of digestion.
(iv) The duodenum secretes several important hormones that regulate various aspects of digestion.

(2ciii)
STOMACH
(PICK ANY TWO)
(i) One of the primary roles of the stomach is to store food temporarily after it has been ingested.
(ii) The stomach aids in the mechanical digestion of food through muscular contractions known as peristalsis.
(iii) The stomach secretes gastric juices, primarily composed of (HCl) and enzymes such as pepsin, which play a crucial role in chemical digestion.
(iv) The stomach controls the rate at which food is released into the small intestine.

====================================

(5ai)
Sense organs are specialized structures in the body of living organisms that enable them to perceive and respond to environmental stimuli.

(5aii)
(i) Nose: Responds to airborne chemical substances like aroma or odors.
(ii) Taste buds: Detect chemicals present in food or solution to give the perception of taste.
(iii) Olfactory epithelium: Receives and detects dissolved substances in the mouth and throat, giving a sense of smell.

(5bi)
(i) Male lions: Patrol and mark their territory with urine to protect their pride of females and young ones.
(ii) Red squirrels: Territorial and have defined territories that they defend and mark using scent glands.
(iii) Male gorillas: Beat their chests and charge at intruders who try to enter their territory.

(5bii)
(i) Swans: Mate for life and form long-term pair bonds that they maintain.
(ii) Seahorses: Form permanent pair bonds during breeding seasons and raise offspring together.
(iii) Prairie voles: A species of rodent that forms lifelong bonds and engages in behaviors like grooming and huddling to maintain social bonding.

=====================================

(1a)
Classification of living things is the process of organizing and categorizing organisms into hierarchical groups based on their similarities and evolutionary relationships. It involves grouping organisms into various levels of classification, from broad categories to more specific ones, to facilitate the study and understanding of biodiversity.

(1bi)
FUNGI:
(i) They are used in the decomposition of organic matter
(ii) They form symbiotic relationships with plants
(iii) They are used to combat plant diseases
(iv) They are used in the production of enzymes

(1bii)
PLANTS:
(i) They serve as primary source of food for humans and animals
(ii) They provide raw materials for farming
(iii) They are applied in medicinal and pharmaceutical industry
(iv) They contribute to soil stabilization.
