I'm sure it won't be that bad haha, I'm just not going to think about it again til August!

Oh, believe me it really was! So disappointed in myself. Yeah, I'm trying not to but I can't control myself! haha

For the ladybird question, I just put that not enough ladybirds were used :/

Well last years grade and coursework should pull it up and the science grade boundaries are always suprisingly low tbh

What did you get for the ADH question, something about ecstasy and ADH, can't remember the exact question


This was posted from The Student Room's iPhone/iPad App

I said that ecstasy triggers more ADH production, and so more water is reabsorbed by the kidney and so less urine is produced and it is more concentrated!

For that one I said that the ladybirds ate other organisms instead of the greenfly..

I think what I wrote was probably wrong, but I wrote that more ADH is released? So, more water is reabsorbed into the bloodstream, making the blood more dilute with water? idk

Yepp that's what I put, I just wasn't sure if ADH made it reabsorb MORE water or LESS but Yayy my guess was right

The Lady Bird one I believe was that she didn't get enough time for the ladybirds to build up their numbers, so they were not effective on the pests, so she had to wait for them to reproduce.

I have seen past mark schemes about the same type of questipn as te ladybird. I do remember them saying that the control organism could be the wrong species...

does anyone know what the UMS is for the coursework if I got 34/36? and if I got 100 UMS last year and 34/36 in coursework, what do i need on this exam to get an overall A* as this exam really did not go well :/

Hey does everyone think that the grade boundaries will be low or high for that exam. i thought it was pretty hard but i have a feeling they will amek the ground boundaries high

What did you get for the trophic level question?

and

The tick boxes question....

* quote me with what you've written *

for the tropic level, i said that the energy increasingly runs out and so there would not be enough energy to support a 5th organism
for the tick ones, i think one was something about stomato and the other one i cannot remember :/

Tick boxes: 2nd and 4th
Efficiency is 5% and there is not enough energy to support more levels.

I did the exam today I thought it went okay! I did two practise papers yesterday both from 2006, and most the content from that came up! After talking to people after the exam, i know i have definetely got some questions wrong. Our school takes this exam in January, so this was a re-take for me. I have a C to fall back on, but hopefully i have at least got a B in this! I answered nearly all the questions

I said that they would leave the plants because it isn't a controlled situation

Water supports the plant i think

What about the differences between translocation and transpiration???

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's an answer as well but in the CGP Guide, it says one of the disadvantages of biological control is that it takes time for them to build up in number and the question said why hadn't she seen a change in 3 weeks, so I think that's the main answer.

translocation uses phloem and travels up and down plant
