No probs!

Am I the only person who was expecting it to be an actual article, not three separate bits which seemed to jump around??

I know what you mean, I actually though it would be a large article from New Scientist or something, not edited like that, but I guess theyre trying to manipulate their questions.

Atleast its not just me that thought it! Means I'm not going bonkers. Does look like there'll be a lot of discussion on anorexia nervosa when we get the article. Funsies.

Could I run some of my ideas of what may come up by any of you to see if you agree? These ones are the ones that are a little bit more hidden in the article.

-Inflammatory response (paragraph 18, p.4)
-Stem cells (paragraph 41, p.7)
-Animal research (mention of rodents and primates in paragraph 19, p.4)
-Saturated and unsaturated fats (leading on from mention of triglycerides in paragraph 3, p.2)

Thanks.

Hi there, I agree with all, especially the animal testing, rodents also mentioned in parargraph 34, ethical possibilities.

I am just worried that this article carries A THIRD OF THE MARKS for the whole paper.

My teacher suggests that we should read the article once a week which I'm doing. Anyone else doing it too?

How's unit 6 going?

I'm so behind and I've left it pretty late
I'm really struggling to find an journal/article about light intensity on plants..so simple but I can't find nothing
Trying to do some bio c/w now but it's hard without a journal

Good thanks! Loving brains! Although I also find the light intesity topic in plants rather perplexing You do coursework on it?

have you done unit 6 past papers ? the pattern of questions is very similar form year to year theres always a question on quadrat sampling for the most marks and CHI square and T test also comes almost every year i think the course is very defined and predictable

We actually have to find a journal and make reference to it in our c/w.
That's the annoying part.
I can't find a journal ANYWHERE on frickin light intensity on plants without paying to see it...

I'm around 4500 as well. I do have a few massive quotes that could be paraphrased to get it in under the word limit.
