This question was attempted by many candidates and their performance was fair.  In part (a) many candidates did fairly well, yet some candidates did very badly by writing basketball, handball, volleyball, and sprints like 100 m, 200 m and 4 x 100 m races as events an ectomorph is likely to excel.   In part (b) where candidates were required to state the characteristics of an endomorph, candidates wrote disjoined matters, big head, standing direct or straight as characteristics of endomorph.
