don't those bacteria fix atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia?:colondollar:

N2 gas with the unstable triple bond is fixed and into NH4+

Can anyone please describe the carbon cycle? Find it so difficult to understand :frown:


This has been asked too many times here.
- Sapribionts hydrolyse organic matter into small, soluble molecules by secreting enzymes onto them
- They absorb the products by diffusion
- They then respire which releases CO2 into atmosphere
- CO2 taken into leaves of plants through stomata
- During photosynthesis

You guys are over analysing this exam man just chill out if you don't know it now you won't know it in the exam. Trying to prepare and guess the 5 markers isn't healthy and your putting that info in your head, what even if they don't come up. Just chill and apply you knowledge of biol4 to the exam, that's what they want you to do


I agree! I don't this exam is that deep! along as you know theory and can apply key words and common sense to your answers you'll be ok, I've never seen tsr so freaked out D: it will be ok guys, jist stay calm!

yeah that's correct

Mowing on the roundabout is such a weird question.
they've asked for the recessive allele? Can anybody help me with this please? It's question 6ai. JUNE 2011.pdf
And also question 5aii please.
Hey does anyone have any tips for those questions on alleles inheritance where you need to give evidence to show its recessive or dominant or sex linked. I just keeping messing them up every past paper I do

Thanks

Ammonia
And then that's used to make amino acids

I know sorry:/ and are you sure is that it what about the whole combustion and decomposition thing?

i have trouble doing this too! get it wrong pretty much every time:mad:

What I mentioned is the carbon cycle.
Deforestation and burning fossil fuels are factors that have contributed to increase of CO2 concentration in atmosphere, so I guess they're a part of carbon cycle, but artificial.
The question asked for this could be -
How does slash and burn affect CO2 conc. in atmosphere?
- Both increase CO2 conc.
- Slash (cutting trees), removes tress, so less psyn, so less removal of CO2
- Burn (burning trees): combustion of fossil fuels release CO2

Ask 2 questions:

Is there anyone with a phenotype different to their parents? - If yes, then that phenotype is recessive.

Is there a recessive female with a father or son with a dominant trait? - If yes then not sex linked.

After this it becomes very clear to prove, if you still struggle then just start adding in genotypes one by one.

They've given you frequency of alleles so 0.33 is your p value.
Q= 1-0.33
P= 0.33
2PQ = 2x 0.33 x 0.67 = 0.4422
this is 42%


why is p 0.33 ? isnt q 0.33 as it is recessive? "The allele for longhair (h) is recessive"

I'm dreading a 5/6 marker on conservation
