just gotta know how the root and stem respond to the gravity and light and what do they benefit when they do. eg: positive phototropism= more light for photosynthesis

I think fish farming will come as it hasnt come up in 2 years, and the kidneys is another possibility. By the way, anyone here doing the ict igcse exam (practical one) this week?

How would you answer this question? It's in the 2011 paper and I'm curious how would we go about answering it:

You probably did a different variant.

I did OK in this paper. Not the best, but not bad. Hopefully for MCQ I got 30+, though.
Yh I'm pretty sure. Were the first questions in your paper something about partially permeable membrane and the diffusion of water is osmosis?
The first questions in my paper 42 were about the heart. I don't remember paper 22 though
i did the AQA iGCSE biology exam. Not Edexcel
