The metabolic rate can be affected by your gender - (men have bigger muscles to fat ratio), generally from your muscle to fat ratio, and form your size.
Could someone be kind to do an unofficial mark scheme for today's exam ?? :colondollar:

If you look at the page about the whole sensory, motor, reflex neurones stuff then it tells you about Light Receptors having a cytoplasm, nucleus and a cell membrane.

Control Groups? ?

Is this alright for the drug question, a drug is a chemical compound that will change the body's properties.

I wrote muscle to fat ratio and crossed it out after assuming it was the same as exercise, since exercise builds up more muscle using fat for energy.

What do you guys think the grade boundaries will be approx?

Not sure about control groups but I put practically the same for drug one.

I put a drug is a substance that changes the chemical reactions within one's body.

It's not cells, the only cell in B1 is the light receptor cells in the eye, it's in nerve and hormones I believe
