lol...
i still cant get over it.. and its really only biol i think that has this problem with such ambiguity..
I mean atleast 10 marks on this exam probably couldnt be found in text books etc. and are simply a test of your general knowledge etc. on the day
and in addition to this are their, as you said, 'beautifully worded questions' which are subject to interpretation

any way, enough ranting, i gotta get studying for revs :|

Hahah !
They were already in one area though.
I'm sticking with B, it is impossible and a very good way as the butterflies will then multiply.

(Image removed from quote.)

Woo, I had B as well.

B ftw

[Studyinghard]

i think im looking at loosing 5 in the mC and maybe 10 ? (im marking myself hard) on the SA. would 60/75 be borderline A+?

With Q20 MC the Structural and Regulatory Gene Qs...

D could technically be correct possibly- "Mutations in DISTANT regulatory genes will have no effect on their related structural genes in eukaryotes"

because the mutation wont actually affect the structural gene itself, itll just affect its expression, hence the gene itself wont affected by the mutation just its operation!?!?

i still see how C is probably correct but possible not ALL (key word) regulatory genes are all in the chromosome

But it says ~related~ structural genes so there would be an effect of some extent.

but they are said to be "distant" so the mutation of the regulatory gene will not physically do anything to the structural gene

distant just means they are located somewhere faraway in another place of the genome, it doesnt mean it wont have not effect. anyway the thing said" Mutations in DISTANT regulatory genes will have no effect on their RELATED structural genes"

But holy crap, good job.

Based off what? =S We don't know if the solutions posted are actually right ahah

[shea43]

We can rave about the answers all we want, but until they come out we won't know the real answers because of the beautifully worded questions. But seriously you'd think that in 4 months that they would be able to get it right.

Good job man on the answers

[shea43]

God you suck at quotes.

Back to topic!


Good year everyone, goodnight .

Shut up fag boy

I've just read through all 8 pages, the butterfly question was quite funny.
So what was the answer? i put A btw

[LFTM]

For question 2c. would i still get marks for saying:Max doesnt produce phenylpyruvic acid, jack does.
Max will have melanin pigment in hair and skin colour, jack doesn't.

[LFTM]

I notice reading the question now it says phenotypic diff. Ah well maybe we'll get one mark.

[LFTM]

Crap!! i put 5cm in Q3.
