Why did you resit? Your profile says you got 96 in b1? :confused:

Don't tell me you're not happy with that :biggrin:

Lol I'm more than happy with it, but my school entered me in for b1 by 'accident' and apparently they had to pay to withdraw me out, so they said just re sit I think it's a load of BS though :s-smilie:

I help make them normally for unit 2 and unit 3's but, I have to much work to do at the moment ( revising for exams) so I'm afraid I can't make it this time. Although I will be willing to help if someone has started it...

It was the question about the reflex arc, you had to label the diagram they had. The answers were cell membrane and cytoplasm

Was it not receptor and stimulus, cos the plant structure is in B2 why would it b in the paper?

It was in the specification on the AQA website. It said that you needed to know that a rod light cell has a cytoplasm, nucleus and cell membrane.

No, Lamarck believed that desirable characteristics were developed over a lifetime and then passed on to the next generation.

Why would the answer be Darwin if the very next question began, "Darwin proposed the theory of natural selection"?

For the question on the last page before the mineral question wasn't the question:
"Why does the population of the animal plankton decrease?"
Can't remember what I wrote but I wrote something along the lines of there are more basking sharks or something which eat them thus less of them. Also I think I wrote it could be because they have less prey i.e. less plant plankton to eat.

Does anyone know the questions to the last page?
I wrote my answers to do with the graph and how the other plankton and sharks had an effect and also talked about the change in population could be because of a new prey or predator (Not sure)
