Scroll to see replies

could you say to compare: for why was scatter graph used
I've signed the petition. Might not help but oh well, at least we tried. Has anybody seen the #aqabiology posts? Seems like we're doing well so far with E4 and the Telegraph writing about the exam.

Yeah, better to say to compare the two variables but 1 mark at least
was skin fine for the sense organ question?
Original post by lilyflowerxoxo
For the sense organ one would eyes be okay?
i put skin because it said not including sense organs in the head? Or they would go to the brain
Am I the only one that was like "lol what m8?" when they asked about the living indicator? I wrote lichens even though lichens aren't even animals

Good point. It wasn't used in any of the questions. Maybe jut to mislead us on the food chain question?...


Why not just put a few 2 markers question on the menstrual cycle? Atleast that would boost my score abit higher. 😂😂

Yes
also for the horse question i put ankle bones got bigger and foot bones became smaller in area. For the natural selection i didn't actually mention the ground getting harder in my answer, will i lose a mark?

Yes, that's correct. I put eyes but lots of people are saying skin was the right answer.

I'm just hoping the grade boundaries are low tbh 😂 and the ISA better boost up my grade, otherwise I'm not coming home on results day 😁

1.6


It was 0.6%

It was 2x10^6 divided by 3x10^8 which was 0.006r
Times by a hundred to get the percentage
= 0.6%
Original post by charliej2802
Anyone else get 0.67%???

yeah but i didnt round i got 0.6 recurring
starting to regret that...

Could you have put those moths for the environmental indicator as they showed up due to industrial pollution?? That's probably completely wrong😞
it said type of animal, so I put invertebrates in water?? is that right? idk

Oh no :frown: I put to show a correlation as a line graph can't be used because he data isn't continuous!

What would 38/60 be on average? Would it get me an A?
