a. Cyclic/non cyclic reaction differences
b. Calvin Cycle details
c. Effect of temp on rate of photosynthesis
d. Stomatal closure

2.Genetic control/Meiosis
a. Define alleles/genotype/phenotype/co-dominance/multiple alleles
b. This time a dihybrid cross for sure
c. hazards of genetic engineering products

3. Selection and Evolution
a. directional/stabilising selection
b. Antibiotic resistance
c. sympatric speciation

4. Kidney Chapter
a. Reabsorption in loop of henle
b. Effect of ADH on kidney (define negative feedback too)
c. Action potentials/how are they transmitted along myelinated axon
d. Seed germination

5. Biodiversity
a. a table referring to structures of the kingdoms
b. Define endangered species
c. How to rescue them

6.Gene Technology
a. how to prepare Plasmid carrying Insulin gene
b. Why not antibiotics as Markers?
c. Electrophoresis process (short)
d. CFTR question this time
e. Immobilisation of enzymes
f. (i fear monoclonal antibodies)

7.Crop Plants

b. The contraceptive pills (mode of action)
c. In-Vitro fertilisation


Be ready to label/ identify any diagram

well respiration might come up. ( I mentioned, didn't I ?)
Biotechnology it's not batch continuous culture this time, it was given recently. SO i think it's immobilizing enzymes and monoclonal antibodies , However, You never know what might come up :)
