I found it ok. I think there were way too many experiments but the 6 markers were good

What did u lot get for cardiac output was it 168 times 160 or 160 times 170 ?
170

Might be a range though

I did 168 to be precise

What everyone get for the population estimate question? I got 5000 something
Same

IT was 4.8*10(to the power of 5)

For the candle question, it went out bc there was no oxygen and when they put the plant there it released oxygen through photosynthesis? Idk if that's right

Yeah that’s what I put and the oxygen keeps the fire alight

Yeah I put that and that the candle doesn't release any more carbon dioxide for the plant to photosynthesise further, hence only stayed alight for another 2 minutes

Yeah that's correct. Well done.

The combustion of the candle does produce carbon dioxide, I think? If it does then it would stop because the combined intake of oxygen for respiration and combustion is at a higher rate than the production of oxygen in photosynthesis.
I’ve messed up the heart question! I got everything right except the names of the valves. I said the semi lunar valve when it was meant to be the triscupid if you get me. On both sides.. how many marks will I drop?
What question was that contraception one
Yeah I still put the bit about oxygen and photosynthesis so

What did you put for the controls of that experiment? I put size of candle wick and the size of the glass bell thing or whatever it was called

Yeah like 5100

It depends on what other information you put but if you put all the necessary info you’d probably only lose one mark.
