AQA BIOL5 Biology Unit 5 Exam - 22nd June 2011

YAY!

make a facebook group?

Well I thought that mean conc. of RNA is decreasing at start because RNA was being used for protein synthesis to help growth of pupa. Then ad it got older RNA conc. increased as less was being used as it was almost an adult pupa.

What did people get for positive feedback between LH and oestrogen? I thought in the oestrous cycle the only positive feedback was between oestrogen and FSH?

I put it increases the rate of active transport.

AQA have such a record of making biology papers with HSW questions all over the place though - is anyone really surprised we got this?

It could definitely have been a nicer paper, and after all I learned about muscles/neurones etc, I was annoyed we didn't get a question on that, but honestly, my main reaction was "oh, so they've given us a load of graphs again" rather than "omg those bitches i hate this paper".

But anyway, does anyone know if giving examples of genetically engineered crops (like Golden Rice, which I went into specifically (thankyou CGP revision guide!)) would be enough for breadth of knowledge? It was pretty much the only thing I got in that could be, since I kinda got into panic "just write as much as possible" mode for the essay and didn't think tactically.

Hey, which part of the cycle did ovulation take place? i put C i think

I put the reason why there was an increase in NAA in the lower side of the leaf because there was no light, and because it said that NAA was similar to IAA...seeing as though IAA moved to the shaded side I said thats why there was a more increase uptake in NAA on the lower side of the leaf?? Is that wrong??

I thought the question asked about temperature though?

Why? You may have to pay higher tuition fees etc etc but so will thousands of others.
Not denying it's retarded but people will cope.

thats exactly what i wrote becuase it said the papa doesnt feed so it needs to grow somehow and thats by protein synthesis so RNA is used up it seemed logical.

paper was so hard compared to last year
WHERE WERE SYNAPSES, MUSCLES, GLUCOSE, TAXES, KINESES ALL THAT? it was like 5 pages of the spec!


i effed the ratio up

put 3 for how many sites it cut at

i got 80% 50% 50% because i thought it said at each hour what was percentage of neurone one or whatever and if you work it out like you did the 80 it was 50 and 50. oh well

The cycles essay was a gift but i made a fundemental error in the cardiac cylce but i included loads hopefully get 20+.. i wrote about PCR as an extra one cos it is like a cycle isnt it?

also what did poeple say about the bas pairs being different on 1st Q?

I put B
