It was ok...
Did anyone get the following: (doing it from the top of my head)
7 units
Dendrites
Relay neurone
Effector
Carbond dioxide catayctic converter question
Microwave
Radio
The one with Oxygen forget which letter (think c) was not an hydrocarbon
Cracking (to match supply with demand)
Insulin travels through blood
Carbohydrates stored as glycogen in liver
Needs more insulin to break down sugar (glucose)
Last question: gap A is bigger than gap B, the wavelengtgs are same lengtg, and waves diffract differently after going through the gap.
For the vaccination 6 marker: about antibodies and anti gens and white blood cells...
Depressants block signals from crossing synapses
On the first page last qiestion about phenotypes wtf? I didnt know what to write. Made bs up.
In the perfume evaporation one wrote about hkw it has weak forces of attraction so kinetic energy can break it easily...
Cant remember anymore
Sorry its a bit scrappy lol :smile:

last question on the first page you had to describe wether the phenotype (characteristic) was shown or not e.g. Hh= characteristic of cystic fibrosis not shown as it is a recessive allele.

Yes

yo im gonna make thread for 2s share some good reivison sites and allla dat yh

For the question about the neurone. Where you had to label the part.

Was it the cell body or dendrites?
I'm so confused😑

Yup it was Effector

I got 7 as well, the physics six marker was so hard

I just wrote that the digital cant be disturbed as much as the analogue because it is either 0 or 1 and a bit more.

Lol same, I put dendrites but tbh OCR made it very unclear so who knows

That is basically along the lines of the answer so you've done fine

None of the science teachers were even sure whether it was cell body or dendrites lol

Oh well😄 hope both are correct

If you get a middle/low C in this paper then a B in Unit 2 paper, what would the overall core grade be if you also got a A* coursework?

I'm not definitely sure but i think it would be A or even a B

If the B in unit 2 is a high B then it could possible be an A overall, if it's middle-low it will most likely be a B overall. But that's just an estimate

What is a 'good grade' to you and how bad is bad?

51-53/75 will it be an A?.Thanks

it was very easy but the grade boundaries are probably going to be high tis year. i did all the six makers but find it hard on the physics. i got angry when nothing from the eye came up
