Adding onto this, it specifically said not to mention valves as that was in the previous question, I can't remember the wording for that though.

1.2 was name a non-communicable disease not mentioned in 1.1 which obesity is a risk factor for. This then led onto 1.3 which said that lowering sugar levels in some food and drinks could reduce obesity, name one other national policy that could be done.
difference in structure I wrote 1.arteries are much more thicker and 2. they have elastic muscular fibers allowing them to stretch.
1.3) National policy- should Include compulsory excersize in all schools
1.2) obesity is a risk factor to Coronary heart disease/ Diabetes
Anyone knows why starch must be digested? I wrote to be broken down and stored as glucose which the body uses for respiration to produce energy.

Bro Question 7 on combined science paper had nothing to do with what we learnt did anyone else notice. the petri dish experiment we never learnt and mutations and reproducing bacteria was never part of the combined science specification. it only mentions the part how they can mutate and become resistant thats it

I dont even think they gonna cancel it.. Is there a chance? they omitting the entire question? or giving full marks for that particular question?
