yeah we were told that you should be able to answer the pre release questions without actually reading the pre release because the questions should be based on biological principles that we have learned - had to basically just quote the pre release for these questions, was so silly!

I talked about PRDM16 acting as a transcription factor, switching on the gene which codes for BAT.

As the QP and MS came out on the following link:

I've been going through the Mark Scheme for the UNIT 4 paper, however it appears that the Answer for Question 7 (b) is faulty?
It was a Cross/Tick question and there is no answer given?
