After the last exam, I'd hazard that lore stuff come us that's not on the syllabus - perhaps black holes ;D

I'm guessing that from genetics:
Transplant comparability
Diseases
Recombinant DNA tech
DNA profiling

Nervous system:
Action potentials in stimulators or inhibitory neurones
Accommodation
Pain and opiate receptors

Homeostasis:
Selective reabsorption
Producing concentrated urine
Temperature control
Aquaporins

Ageing:
Osteoarthritis
Effects if an ageing population.

Some nasty synoptic questions.

Who knows, this exam is a bit of a gamble in terms of content, but some of the past papers are okay, with other being horrible!

Do you have any notes on colour vision testing?

Yeah for colour vision, is just really the picture they show the patient with different coloured dots to make up the photo, and the need to differentiate between the number and back ground if they have difficulty or visualise a different number they may be diagnosed with colour blindness - there are several types RGB colour blindness monochromacy where they are only able to see one type of colour, i think inheritance is genetic sex linked saw that in a legacy, but now sure if the actual name of the eye exam
