can somebody tell what were we supposed to write in the questions

Q.2
(a) why the % of insects starts to increase from second year?

Q.4
(b)Explain how the embryo gets the requirements for germination

Q.8
EITHER
(a) Explain The processes that is involved in moving substances in and out of cells

Q.2
As the pesticide was being used, only the insects that wereimmune to the pesticide survived and some grew to be immune to it. when they breed, they get off spring that are immune and so the population increases.

Q.4
Oxygen > From the air around it
Water > As water vapour in the air

Q.8
I wrote about diffusion, osmosis and active transport! then i gave an examples for each for in and out

Either im right or you all are wrong about the structur in the MRI of the man, im sure they are ribs ; NOT intercoastal muscles!

Shouldn't we mention the parent plant as well? O2 from photosynthesis and its water supply from the soil..

Can anyone please tell me where we should have drawn the line for the question on the MRI or X-rays(whatever it was) of the chest?

This one: Draw a line on the figure to show the position of the chest wall when the person breathes in deeply.

I don't think so. According to me, there must have been gene mutation for the offspring to grow over such a short period of time.

sorry didnt get you :shock:

Actually insects have short life cycles..

The question didn't ask about the water-flea but about the fruit wall and its seed. :p

@mimmi: Your answers for Q2 & Q8 are good. As for the Q4, you could have said, the oxygen part is correct but for water...the plant was already in water..So the plant absorbs water from there itself... :)

@Amy: No. Only for the embryo.

I wrote ribs too but cut it off later. How can it be ribs, mimmi?.. The ribs should be in the outer part of the image and not where H was positioned. Besides, H was thick; H must have comprised of the two Intercoastal muscles.
The Intercoastal muscles cannot be found outta the ribs.. You get that?.. :)

I ignore that too. I have drawn the line from the middle. :S I guess that's wrong.
I know that the chest wall expands as air volume increases in the lungs but A LINE to show its position? :S

The part shown as H was much whiter than all the other tissues! Also the colour is matching with that of the backbone! Also, it appeared as separate positions since the rib cage is kind of curved! The blacker spaces between the white areas could be the intercoastal muscles! If the white areas were intercoastal muscles, can you explain the darker areas between the two structures marked as H?


I think I'll talk to a doctor about this ~_~

What do you mean already in water? =S wasn't the plant already hanging from the parent plant?

Maybe we both are wrong and the seedling got what it needed directly from the parent plant but I doubt that's the answer they want since it's asking about a tropical plant where it's hot and humid =S

It's a water plant. so obviously the roots should be immersed in water, no?... :) Therefore water was absorbed by the roots by osmosis to provide the plant with this factor. The word 'tropical' is a hint for the gaseous exchange. Well, it was not really helpful though. :p:D

The black areas are lobes(superior, middle and inferior) of the lungs. :p [This is out of syllabus]
'Intercoastal muscles' IS the answer. See the image again, you will notice that there are 2 white areas. The outer one is the ribs and the internal one is the 'Intercoastal muscles'. ;) The arrow pointed towards the internal one, so... :)
