and reduce carbon dioxide
-When a lot of trees are cut down, carbon dioxide which
is released through respiration, combustion and
decomposition will increase the percentage of carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere

6 (b)•Flame of the torch will extinguish when the
oxygen level is too low
•The use of the torch can warn us not to
continue the exploration

87. 6 (c)No
•Because we don’t know the exact amount of
oxygen in the cave
•The torch will increase the level of carbon
dioxide in the cave

88. 6 (c)No
•Because we don’t know the exact amount of
oxygen in the cave
•The torch will increase the level of carbon
dioxide in the cave
6 (d)•use the oxygen sensor

take precautions

89. 7 (a)•Villagers are concerned about their health

•Quarry project will cause air pollution
7 (b)•Job opportunities
•Can earn money

91. 7 (a)•Villagers are concerned about their health

•Can earn money
7 (c)•Yes
•The project can cause health problems to the
villagers

92. 8 (a)•Green plants need light energy for
photosynthesis
•If lack of light, photosynthesis will decrease
•Plants that do not get enough sunlight will die
•Thus, farmers should replace sunlight with
light energy from lamps (suitable intensity)
