Re: OCR 21st Century Biology - B7 and Ideas in ContextDidn't even know brain damage was one of them, I would say you needed 2 out of these 4 main ones: Physical weakness, tiredness, pain, fever. I included all of them for good measure but you only need two so you got it right(Original post by Tarmu)
What are they symptoms of sickle-cell anaemia?
How many symptoms would you need to list for 2 marks?
Would pain & fever get the 2 marks - or would you need to include brain damage ETC?

Re: OCR 21st Century Biology - B7 and Ideas in ContextI also added that feeling faint is one?(Original post by lauraaaaa)
I put tiredness/weakness, shortness of breath, pain and swelling of the joints but I don't know how many you'd need, I'm guessing it's two.
Is that alright? -
Re: OCR 21st Century Biology - B7 and Ideas in ContextArrrr crap(Original post by lauraaaaa)
It didn't say anything like that in my text book I don't think but I searched it online and it said 'dizziness' so I'm not sure
I didnt even think we'd need to knwo stuff on sickle cells /:

Re: OCR 21st Century Biology - B7 and Ideas in ContextI put a faulty recessive allele which mutates the haemoglobin in the red blood cells(Original post by science-oliver)
Also what did people put for the cause of sickle-cell anaemia.
I put faulty alleles which codes the haemoglobin

Re: OCR 21st Century Biology - B7 and Ideas in Context
Exam went well, i think, i needed extra paper for most of, although i thought we finished at half past so i was rushing towards then to find out i had 10 minutes left

I found the questions on the heart the hardest, just because i didnt revise them, but i think the Grade Boundaries will be lower this year, most of the questions required in depth answers on topics that are in the 'Higher' section.
What do you guys think? -
