Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A student in Trinidad observed a cricket player bending his arm to catch a ball. Which pair of muscles acts antagonistically during this movement?

  1. Quadriceps and hamstrings
  2. Gastrocnemius and soleus
  3. Deltoid and pectoralis
  4. Biceps and triceps
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: D — Biceps and triceps
Award 1 mark for identifying the antagonistic pair in the upper arm. A is incorrect — quadriceps and hamstrings are antagonistic muscles of the thigh, not the arm. B is incorrect — gastrocnemius and soleus both act as calf muscles and are not antagonistic to each other. C is incorrect — deltoid and pectoralis are shoulder muscles that do not form an antagonistic pair for arm flexion.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A farmer in St. Elizabeth, Jamaica, observed that his callaloo plants wilted during the midday heat but recovered by evening. Which process is primarily responsible for maintaining the firmness of the plant cells?

  1. Photosynthesis producing glucose in leaves
  2. Transpiration removing water from leaves
  3. Respiration releasing energy in cells
  4. Osmosis causing water to enter the vacuole
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: D — Osmosis causing water to enter the vacuole
Award 1 mark for identifying osmosis as the process that maintains turgidity. A is incorrect because photosynthesis produces food but does not directly maintain cell firmness. B is incorrect because transpiration causes water loss, leading to wilting. C is incorrect because respiration releases energy but does not maintain turgor pressure.

CXC CSEC Biology: Support and Movement FAQ

Is Kramizo free for CXC CSEC 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 Support and Movement practice with other Biology topics or even switch to a totally different CXC 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 Support and Movement questions aligned to the official CXC CSEC Biology syllabus?
Every question is written against the published CXC CSEC Biology specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real CXC 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 CXC.
How is Support and Movement typically tested on CXC CSEC Biology papers?
Support and Movement appears across multiple question types on real CXC CSEC 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.
