    Its basically water potential = solute potential + pressure potential where solute potential is always NEgATIVE and pressure potential is always POSITIVE

    Thanks a lot :) As for 39, shouldn't the efficient for the decomposition of the producers and consumers be the highest because, after all, unlike feeding by animals, the decomposes take all the mass of the organism while animals may leave out parts such as fur, bark, roots or hooves? On 40...

    lol read the questions again. Even though the choices are the same, the diagram is the same, the question is different.

    I've found a mistake in a question - I think. Question # 39 : http://www.xtremepapers.com/papers/CIE/Cambridge%20International%20A%20and%20AS%20Level/Biology%20(9700)/9700_w10_qp_11.pdf The answer is A according to the mark scheme. But this is what the examiner report says (and honestly, it...

    Variant for N 09? J10) 8 - There is constant acceleration at first. Hence there is supposed to be a curved region on the displacement-time graph. A can be eliminated. Height can not increase with time, D can be eliminated. The steel ball will either reach a terminal velocity or continue with...

    The couple produced in Q has forces acting on the upper belt (towards the right) and in the center of the motor (towards the left). The force does not act on the lower belt as the lower belt is slack (which woudl not have been the case if a force was acting on it). Hence torque by Q = 3.0 Nm =...

    It's not C because athletes, who have greater cardiac outputs, have a lower blood pressure. Hence it can't be C or D. Also, greater cardiac output = more oxygen supplied to muscles = more carbon dioxide taken in. I don't know why the impulses in the vagus nerve wouldn't increase. :oops: The...

    Obviously, nucleolus. This is because the ribosomes are made inside the nucleolus. There's no real fixed size. They can be big or small. But they're pretty conspicuous structures inside chloroplasts.

    In 9th, Option D has no carbons which can attach to another carbon in the molecule (all the carbons have octet configurations in terms of chemistry) In 17th, mitosis only helps in cell division. It doesn't help in the growth (increase in size) of the cell. Hence it's B. Just to make it clear...

    Transit of Venus tomorrow

    lol no... go to the link it'll give you the details for your country For my place (Riyadh) it'll be visible from sunrise to 7:54am. The point of saying 'during the day' was to make clear you wouldn't be able to see it at night. :p
