    Thats what I wrote in so many words? I wrote that the cervix will widen, and there will be a contraction of the muscle B, forcing the baby out when the woman goes into labour.. The placenta and uterus lining will fall away..

    how to score A* ?

    If it was 90% internationally, then only 10% of all people would get A*.. Thats not the case if you look at figures for A*s last year (:

    Physics-Doubts Regarding energy sources

    Actually, With the confirmation of my teacher. Basically say that energy is released from fusion in the Sun, which hits the water as rays of light.

    Hmm, for the small intestine one where glucose was gone.. It could be both respiration and digestion right? All cells respire, and glucose is required for that... What about the amnion and amniotic fluid.. I wrote that they protect the baby from bumps and knocks, protect it from pathogens and...

    White thing in the middle was the lacteal. The blood vessels with RBCs in them were capillaries.. The outer wall has a special name, but from past papers, a wall of cells is accepted.

    Thanks, you helped a lot.. What would the overall effect on the rate of reaction be though. With a lower temperature would it not mean a slower rate?

    Biology paper 32

    FSH leads to the development and maturing of a follicle, which eventually leads to ovulation. I didn't do 32 myself, but I think you would've had to explain the role like this. You are right, it does control whether or not an egg is released though, because only after the follicle is fully...
