Solve the Physics problem, or else you aren't good enough for Oxbridge

And before you post bs, I know the answer as I'm an Oxford student potentially graduating with a First in Physics. I asked this to a professor and even them can't solve it.

What are the fundamental degrees of freedom of M-theory (the theory whose low-energy limit is eleven-dimensional supergravity and that subsumes the five consistent superstring theories) and does the theory describe nature? Express the fundamental degrees respective to their value of coefficients.

is that an excuse of not being able to answer the question?

I finished A2 physics and I'm baffed on these principles you have stated.

Maybe I recommend resisting A2 again

Superstring theories? Nothing I've heard of at A2, I know plenty about Lenz' law, Faraday's law, Coulomb's law etc.

Your opinion is poor.

That question is not even answerable, at least not with a definitive answer, which others will also conclude to be correct.

Mtheory is still in it's infancy, I don't believe it has even produced any outcomes which can be verified by experimental research.
