oblacone Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 Yes i assumed the same thing. But there were two answers that seemed correct one about oxygen and second about the co2 supply and i was not sure about thatyes but during the exam i thought... well plants need Co2 but bacteria want oxygen, things usually dont flock around to help, its to get what they need and it just happen to be a mutualistic relationship then i guess (yeh i done my reading on chapter G). I don't see a benefit for the bacteria to a place where it can give off Co2 to a plant when it can give off Co2 where ever it feels like it, of course i could be mistaken Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

infinite96 Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 for the question about maintaing a warm body temperature...like characteristics and adaptations...i said vasoconstriction and the fact that theyre warm blooded and thus have a balanced internal temperature...do you think that could be right??

I said that too...only I wrote vasorestriction, so hopefully they'll credit that I first wrote vascoconstriction and then i wrote vasoconstriction, in the same answer, wops, hope they will be nice the question with the pedigree chart, what type of inheritance was it? (paper 2) I don't know, but I put autosomal recessive Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jovana392 Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 Hello people, What did you write for data response questions about the difference between temperature of water and skin of animals? I think I totally misinterpreted it as I wrote that as they dive deeper, the difference between temperature of water and their skin becomes smaller.. Also, I wrote the reason for maintaining the temperature is because they have heat insluation and energy stores (((( Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I totally misinterpreted it as I wrote that as they dive deeper, the difference between temperature of water and their skin becomes smaller.. Also, I wrote the reason for maintaining the temperature is because they have heat insluation and energy stores (((( I did that aswell. There are 2 different questions. One was asking for how they may maintain heat, a function or adaptation. The other was the one you referring to and i put the exact same answer. I think that this exam was just ridiculous. The section a, a problem with all diagrams with the ib is that they are almost always hard to read, i think i did awful on the questions 2-4 . Section B was the biggest waste, it was no where near reflective of 2 years with a lot of important topics not mentioned and the majority being standard topics but never mind I revised enough so it wasn't too much of a problem. I usually would have got 37+ in section be but i think it went down to 30+ so yes im a bit frustrated and moaning to be honest. Trying hard right now to recapture the marks through Paper 3, need virtually 36+ as my coursework wasn't great for a level 6 i reckon.

Also, I wrote the reason for maintaining the temperature is because they have heat insluation and energy stores (((( They were diving for shoerter period of time, but the breaks between each dives also were shorter. The depth of each dive decreased as well as the difference between the temperature of the body and water (it could also be noticed that after going out on the surface, there was increase in the body temperature). It was because there was vasoconstriction of arterioles and possibly shivering as muscles generate heat there (but I'm not sure of the second one) Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

vineet777 Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 does anyone remember what they wrote in the lung question in paper 1? I remember there being two choices, one about gax exchange giving O2 to cellular respiration and the other about CO2 in the lungs, produced by cellular respiration, being ejected by gas exchange.. I wrote the latter, since the wording on the first one made it seem as if the gas exchange gives cellular respiration oxygen. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovelyelephant Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 I put c for the kidney one because it was pointing to the loop on Henle where high solute concentration is created at least I think that was c not actually sure which ever one was point to the loop of henle, overl I found this exam to be good. I really liked the section b for time zone 1. Especially the carbon cycle question because I totally memorized the markschene for anaerobic and aerobic respiration!

I wrote the latter, since the wording on the first one made it seem as if the gas exchange gives cellular respiration oxygen.If I remember correctly, I think i did the same too! The wording for the choice with O2 made it seem like the oxygen was carried to the cells by ventilation, where, as a matter of fact, it is carried by the blood. I think I chose the one about CO2.

paul34 Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Hahaha you guys are bickering over paltry points on paper 1... I wrote off the Calvin Cycle instead of Kreb's cycle ;'( There goes my 7...soo pissed!!!! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kendisbelovee Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 I also wrote Rough ER for the image, without seeing the link even.---For where actin is produced, I realised it was a trick question since it's not mentioned directly anywhere in the syllabus. Indirectly though.. I think I got it. Actin is a protein, right? And then on the syllabus it says: 7.4.7 State that free ribosomes synthesize proteins for use primarily within the cell, and that bound ribosomes synthesize proteins primarily for secretion or for lysosomes.Thus, I said that actin is made on free ribosomes. It's a choice on the multiple choice.---For the magnification, I also got 5500x. ---Personally.. I thought Paper 2 Data Response was hard. You'll never know if you stated what they wanted you to say.. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kendisbelovee Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Oh and who liked the Paper 1 question on what was a form of seed dispersal? The choices were pollen with air... pea plant.. etc... I answered the pea plant choice because according to the definition, seed dispersal refers to fertilised seed. Pollen is not fertilised.

ghjk Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Thought paper 2 was much easier than past years....partially because I'm not a fan of human physiology or genetics and not too much of those topics were in the extended answers haha. I agree, paper 1 seemed to have a few trick questions....What did you guys put for the question about the number of cells undergoing metaphase in paper 1?
