yes i put endocrine too.

did you also put the medulla region for another gap?

i put the cortex, isn't adrenaline produced in the medulla and that's it?
Well that exam has just ruined my chance of getting into uni. To think this was the unit I found easiest as well. :frown:

I put the cortex because it was a glucocorticoid. I'm not too sure though.

i wrote exocrine


it was endocrine
Is exocrine wrong then?
For the question where it asked what causes shivering? what was the answer? adrenaline??
Also for the difference between plants in shade and sun I said fewer stomata is that possible?

Yeah adrenaline is produced in the medulla, glucocoritcoids and mineralcorticoids are produced in the cortext, I remembered it from 'cort' in the names.
Ffs i put endocrine and then changed it to exocrine

damn! i couldnt remember which way round it was arghh
Well the lowest have been June 2011, which was 40 for an A, and personally i think that was much harder!
for the light intensity question, wouldnt you talk about how light intensity is no longer the limiting factor and so c02 or something else must be - then explain this in terms of the calvin cycle?
