Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A student investigated the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis in pondweed. She counted the number of bubbles produced per minute at different distances from a lamp. Which of the following is the independent variable in this investigation?

  1. the number of bubbles produced per minute
  2. the distance of the lamp from the pondweed
  3. the temperature of the water
  4. the type of pondweed used
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B — the distance of the lamp from the pondweed
Award 1 mark for correct identification. The independent variable is the factor that is deliberately changed by the investigator. A is incorrect because the number of bubbles is the dependent variable (what is measured). C is incorrect because temperature should be a control variable (kept constant). D is incorrect because the type of pondweed is also a control variable.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 2/3

A student investigating transpiration rates measured the following water uptake values in cm³ per hour: Trial 1 = 4.2, Trial 2 = 4.8, Trial 3 = 4.5, Trial 4 = 12.1, Trial 5 = 4.4. Which value should be treated as an anomalous result?

  1. 4.2 cm³ per hour
  2. 4.8 cm³ per hour
  3. 12.1 cm³ per hour
  4. 4.4 cm³ per hour
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: C — 12.1 cm³ per hour
1 cm³ per hour. Award 1 mark for correct identification. This value is significantly different from the other four results, which cluster around 4.2–4.8 cm³ per hour. Anomalous results do not fit the pattern of other measurements and should be excluded from calculations of means. A, B and D are incorrect because these values are all within a similar range and consistent with each other.

CIE IGCSE Biology: Data handling, analysis and evaluation FAQ

How many CIE IGCSE Biology questions on Data handling, analysis and evaluation are there on Kramizo?
Kramizo currently has 20 exam-board-aligned practice questions on Data handling, analysis and evaluation for CIE IGCSE Biology, with new questions added every week. Each question gives you instant feedback and a full examiner-style mark scheme that tells you exactly what would earn marks on a real CIE paper. The questions span the full difficulty range — from straightforward recall (level 1) right up to multi-step reasoning and evaluation (level 3) — so the bank works for first-pass revision and final exam-week stress testing alike.
Is Kramizo free for CIE IGCSE students preparing for Biology?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Data handling, analysis and evaluation practice with other Biology topics or even switch to a totally different CIE subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Data handling, analysis and evaluation questions aligned to the official CIE IGCSE Biology syllabus?
Every question is written against the published CIE IGCSE Biology specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real CIE paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from CIE.
How is Data handling, analysis and evaluation typically tested on CIE IGCSE Biology papers?
Data handling, analysis and evaluation appears across multiple question types on real CIE IGCSE Biology papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
