Q2. A map of the world shows that the outline of South America looks as if it would fit into the west coast of Africa.

• Alfred Wegener in 1920 suggested his idea that the continents had been joined together but then slowly drifted apart.

(b) In 1915, the scientist Alfred Wegener suggested that Africa and South America had once been joined but had since drifted apart. Evidence for his theory came from the animal fossils found in the two continents. The fossils are almost the same, although animals now living in Africa and South America are different. Other scientists did not agree with Wegener and suggested that a land bridge had once joined the two continents.

There is a brief description of a positive and a negative environmental impact involved with one or more methods used to reduce the amount of plastic bags sent to landfill.

Level 1 (1–2 marks)

There is some description of both positive and negative environmental impacts involved with at least 2 methods used to reduce the amount of plastic bags sent to landfill.

Level 2 (3–4 marks)

There is a clear, balanced and detailed description of both a positive and a negative environmental impact of using each of the 3 methods used to reduce the amount of plastic bags sent to landfill.

Level 3 (5–6 marks)

examples of the chemistry points made in the response

reuse: reuse means less bags used so:

positive environmental impact

• saves raw materials / crude oil

• saves energy

• cuts down on CO2 emissions

• less global warming

negative environmental impact

• could cause litter

• could still be sent to landfill

recycle: bags bought can be recycled so:

positive environmental impact

• used to make new plastic bags / objects

• saves raw materials / crude oil

• saves energy compared to producing plastic bags from crude oil

• cuts down on CO2 emissions

• less global warming

negative environmental impact

Page 33: C1.5 Useful products from crude oil Revision Higher

Page 33

• collection point sites cause an eyesore / litter problem

• transportation to recycling plant releases carbon dioxide / causes global warming

burn: bags can be burned so:

positive environmental impact

• could provide energy for heating buildings

• could provide energy for generating electricity

negative environmental impact

• increases CO2 emissions

• increases global warming

• could release toxic gases

M6. (a) (i) (healthiest oil is) sunflower (oil) or rapeseed (oil)

sunflower (oil) is healthiest because it has less saturated fat than both olive (oil) and corn (oil)
