Wasn't the difference in the area of the zone disinfected?

I worked out the area of a circle for each and worked out how many times it was greater by dividing the area of the circle values.

gg 0 marks looool

What did you guys write about the question why the scientists drew the conclusion, it was about HIV and natural selection.


I was thinking natural selection takes place over a long period of time and HIV was recently discovered. I also put natural selection gets rid of non-beneficial genes for more favourable/desirable ones

Ugh I didn't think about calculating the area - I just did the diameter of D divided by the diameter of B.

I didn't like that paper, it started off well but just got worse. Am I the only one who thinks it?


soo true although i liked the starch and cellulose at the end but then translocation hit me and i was like why

Don't worry, more than likely I've done it wrong. I am really **** at Biology

Why did the sample need to be thin?


i think so light could more easily pass through and it could b seen clearly
I crammed the translocation thing this morning as well :lol: Was so happy when it came up.

How many marks was the question about what cause the clear zone and also the question about why above 40% shouldn't be used?

i basically said that their offspring may not have the mutation and that people rarely come in contact with hiv disease and so few die from ir

hopefully like 60% for an A:frown: probably not though :frown:

last year was 66 or 68 so i think it will b around the same

How many marks was the question about FEV, precautions that should be taken?
What was the answer to the non smoker FEV reducing? I put something silly like the alveoli cells not being able to regenerate

that was a complete guess tho aha

What did people put for the mutation question and how it leads to a non functional protein.


i described the types of mutation so deletion and substitution and told about how they work
For the ratio I did 25/5 and got 5:1
for the clear zone I calculated area of circle divide by each and got like 2.5x bigger
