    A level Biology: Post your doubts here!

    I dont think the walls are partially permeable. Lignin is totally impermeable, and pits would allow the passage of all substances (as far as i know).. Anyways, i think abcde is right :)

    P(X<6)=0.105 Let (6-mean)/sd be a P(Z<a)=0.105 a is negative (im not sure how you've been taught to determine whether a is -ve or +ve. What we do is that if both the sign is less than, i.e <, and the probability is less than 0.5, or if both are more than, then a is -ve) 1-...

    p(x<6)= 63/600 p(z< (6-mean0/s.d) = 63/600 (i)Do the same for the other set of values. You'll get to equations. Solve them simultaneously to get the answer. (ii) P(X< mean-s.d) + P(X> mean + s.d) This gives u the probability of length being more than a s.d from the mean. Multiply the result by...

    According to some friends of mine, using ES series calculators will straightaway result in a deduction of 10 marks. Is this true?? :O

    Mathematics: Post your doubts here!

    Q. 5(b)(ii) The first digit has to be a 2 if we are to get a no. between 20,000 and 30,000. the no of ways the remaining 5 digits can be used= 5P4= 120 (c) The probability of placing a white tile ( or any other colored tile) first is 1/3. The second tile must not be white so P(not white)=1 -...

    Q5.(i) Apply continuity correction. If u are rounding off a number to 84, it must be in the range 83.5<X<84.5. Now calculate the probability of the result ( by converting the data to normal distribution by subtracting mean from each value and dividing by standard deviation) (ii) Simply...

    Some Different Notes & Website Are Available !!!

    Thank you for all the links you've posted. They really are helpful. :) But I still have a MAJOR issue when it comes to thermal physics ( esp in questions asking for evidence for strong,rigid bonds in solids,etc) can you PLEASE share any link that discusses this particular chapter in more detail...

    Wouldn't trichloromethane react with Br2.. the reaction would be somewhat similar to the addition reaction between alkenes and halogens.. except that this compound already is a halogenoalkene.. :/
