maybe even one of those heart 6 markers. i remember a similar one about CVD for the heart. ik that's paper 4 content but they may do a similar thing and just put a disease about arteries and veins ??

I think I lost 2 marks on the multiple choice with the dna replication and starch one as I thought starch would lower water potential but actually it stays the same. Also where we had to label the cortex was it the outermost layer?
