Hey,
1) the fat enzymes are produced in the pancreas and small intestine
2) they are called lipase
3) sounds right. Amylase breaks starch down to simple sugars then gets absorbed into blood by the villi

Hey Plz can someone help me out??
I have finished my GCSE and am waiting for results.
I need B grade in additional science to get into sixth form.
I was predicted an A* but i got migraines and was ill in the week of exams.
I got an A* in my additional science Isa but i found my C2 B2 AND P2 exams VERY hard.
Im sure I got over 50% on all unit 2 exams.
Will i get a B? What will the grade boundaries be?? High or low?

Grade boundaries for March 2013 Additional Science Exams:
B2 A* = 45/60 or 75%
C2 A* = 45/60 or 75%
P2 A* = 43/60 or 72%

Depends, how hard did you think the exams were? I thought they were pretty standard, which would suggest grade boundaries around 75%. As for triple science, you can't tell because this is the first time there have been triple exams!

Well if the question asked you what atomic number was, then yes, that isn't the correct definition.
