Praying for the essay to be on DNA, ions, CO2 or cycles but knowing my luck the essay will be awful. If they are AS heavy I'll be super angry

Also, if kinesis comes up...

In favourable conditions, are you going to put that the organism INCREASES or DECREASES its rate of turning? I think increasing the turning makes more sense but every textbook I look in seems to say something different...


Kinesis is NON-DIRECTIONAL, so if a statistical test proved the results to be random then it would demonstrate kinesis.

Therefore, if the RATE of turning increased (i.e. the subjects moved left or right in a more seemingly random manner) then this would also be an example of kinesis in action.

I hope this is right/makes sense?:colondollar:

Why would you want to do that, if you get something wrong you'll just end up worrying about it all summer

Ooh nice note about the statistical test! I could see them asking a question on that.

And yeah it makes sense when you state it like that. I think I'm just thinking of the effects of such random movement too frequently. Thank you!

Yep. I'm in total panic mode already, as I have been since Saturday, aha. Really don't feel like I've got enough time to cover everything...
The day I will be ready for this exam is the day genetically modified tomatoes freeze over
