Not after each answer but it is with those answers specially graphs etc, where they accept +/- 1. I think.

What is the best way to wash the apparatus for titration? There was a n MCQ and the answer was first with tap water then with distilled water. Dark Destination, remember?
But question 8 part e says with solution H. :confused:

During titration, to rinse the FLASK,
First rinse with tap water
Then rinse with distilled water



During titration, to rinse BURETTE
First rinse with water
Then with acid

Assalamu Walaikum,
I have a doubt on Biology MCQ as follows:
http://papers.xtremepapers.com/CIE/Cambridge International O Level/Biology (5090)/5090_s10_qp_11.pdf

For Question no 35 , the answer is D and the explanation in Examiners Report is
"Sperm deposited on day 10 will still be viable on day 13. Eggs ovulated on day 15 are still viable on
day 17, so the fertile period extends for 7 days."

I don't quite get it. After being viable on day 13 , sperms will die so how will they fuse with eggs ovulated on day 15. Moreover, even if not fused then the E.R means that it can even be fused in day 17 ! How is that possible?

Anyone please explain it to me?

See lets say the sperms are released on day 10
They will survive till day 13
The eggs are released on day 15. They will ovulate, and survive for 2 days, until day 17.
Now there is no sperms or eggs, thus the fertile period ends

6. A . Esters have carboxylic acid first and then alcohol so you can see their names by the number of carbon atoms
7. A . We're making a polyAMIDE and theres only one option thats nylon
9.B . Its endo so temp of surroundings will decrease,but slowly return to normal as always.

Won't 9 be A, as it is being constantly stirred until no further change in temp is there? If we stirred it and then left it, then it would have been B

If sperms survive till day 13 then how will they fuse with the egg released at day 15 ?
Thanks
