Did anyone else NOT get "stop smoking" for that alzheimer's MC question. Kinda made me lol as in that case nicotine was good to stop the disease =P.

I didn't... and don't ask!

Sorry I couldn't, supervisor told me my teacher had it. I asked him he didn't have it so the other biology teacher probably had it :(

Will be heading to school and try to get the paper for you Russ!

The picture of the cat made me laugh, no write up of a experiment which sadden me quite a bit. :( However it was an alright exam, alot of questions involving immunity. Got the "what type of nucleic acid is in here" wrong for cholroplast wrote rRNA for some odd reason


Man I wrote rRna as well lawl. Are you sure it's wrong? There's ribosomes in chloroplasts!

also jane, not sure if you have to add 36-38 ATP for the mark.



Wow! That's a massive surprise that there was no experiment write up. Did they at least have something where they required you to analyse how well an experiment was set up, or something like that?

That'd be great! But if you haven't left and need to revise for Chem please don't disrupt your Chem prep just for this.

Oh okay, that's fair then - they tested it to some extent as expected. It's actually good to test it in a different way, people just have formulas for the experimental design question now. How did you go?

omg like what the hell...exam = so hard :(
i thought there was going to be an expiremental design or rational design question! i would have done better if those were on it
and i left two questions out
omg fml  :'(

i wrote abscisic acid too for that random plant question and for siemese cat i chose A (is that right o.o)
i wrote mRNA for the digram question.
what did you guys right for the "the person has an infection if blablabla"  multiple choice question? i was indecisive about histamine released from cells or pathogen in intestines. at the end i chose pathogen one but now im thinking its wrong? :/

It was the one where the pathogen was found in the leg muscle
It couldn't have been the others because A. histamine doesn't necessarily mean an infection (c.f. pollen etc.)
B. Finding bacteria in the intestine doesnt mean it's infected - there's good bacteria that live in harmony with our body
I forgot what the other option was - probably because it was really stupid

anyway, yeah I MAY be wrong, but i'm pretty sure that's right
answer was D
