development of vaccines(drug trials....clinicl trials)
immune responses

My prediction too!
Exam is in four days I'm doing the article with my teacher today I'll let you guys know possible questions he comes up with
Also on paragraph 13 it mentions chromatography could it be gel electrophoresis?
Guys how do you suggest adjuvants work to amplify the immune response?

And how do adjuvants cause side effects such as a sore arm?

Why is it harder to make vaccines for parasites?

How can we make malaria vaccines cheaper, more easily and potentially safer?

Why is it harder to develop bacteria with a partly deleted genome, only able to express a gene and show a protein?

Also how does solidifying the vaccine into thin sheets prevent them from degrading?

I don't need sleep. I need answers. Good luck peeps.
Did you guys deduct anything?
How was it?

How was it?

Well, the 6mark QWC about the patients with the mitochondrial disease was kinda hard. Might get around 3 points for that particular question but the article wasnt very hard. I felt that it was a tad but easier than last year's October paper. What do you reckon the grade boundaries will be?

Any other question you found challenging?
I wouldn't call them challenging, but I am uncertain about some answers that I wrote with ease. Just me and my anxiety after getting two B's for bio unit 4 and unit 6 which I did last October. Fingers crossed everything I wrote scores atleast half or more 😂
