Edexcel GCSE Biology Paper 1 (Higher) - 13th May 2025 [Exam Chat]

What grade are you aiming for?

for the 3 domain classification i mentioned how its used bc the other classification system was out of date and bc of changes in tech??? idk if thats even right i totes spaced. also for dna i only mentioned double helix, complementary pairs, and sugar phosphate group and also for the method i just yapped ab ‘to see subcellular structure’ mostly for the reasons why. still talked ab ethanol + salt but didnt give reasons why. how much wld i get for the 6 marker do u guys think?

GUYS
for the question where we label two parts from like a bacerteria cell like were we supposed to give the functions or label cuz my friend said i was supposed to write the function in the box but i just labelled it like an idiot, please tell me i read the question right or did i just lose marks from an already lost paper

It said function

guys are we sure it said what structure AND function for the bacteria question cos surely it would be more than 2 marks if it was both

i wrote cell wall because bacterias have cell walls made out of peptidocyclan but i think it can also be cell membrane as well, will they accept both?

I wrote about cell membrane as I think they accept both. The image is way to blurry to interpret which layer it is so it would be kinda unfair if they didn't accept both. I think it could be argued that the label was actually the cell capsule but idk

I wrote slime capsule idk what i was thinking

slime capsule is diabolical
