Biology paper 62 Discussion

[Dhairya10xxx]

Oh, i dont have the Mark scheme for oct 2012, but other old papers always applied that you lose 2-3 marks if wrong type of graph

where u hv seen ... u wrote before commnts dat u hv solvd dis type of question !!!! in old papers !!!!
so kindly name d paper in whch u hv attmtd dis kind of question !!!

As far as I know, it was supposed to be a line graph.

Yea well, i dont know about that but it seemed right to me dont know why:S

 

[Fatima18]

But there were some methods that Histogram/Bar Graph were the right answers, maybe not this one

I dont think its possible for it to be a bar graph.It said 'PLOT'.Usually that suggests line graph.If it is bar graph or histogram, the instructions usually ask for that.

 

[Fatima18]

Yea well, i dont know about that but it seemed right to me dont know why:S

Well then, maybe

 

[5aTwA]

Yea your right they usually ask, but what tempted me was that it ask to be plotted both in same axis... dont know why it tempted me

 

[Fatima18]

It happens in exams..its normal....

But it dint looked like one line graph . was very creepy and small and not looking usually like line graphs plot . but becoz of the scarcity of time i made line graph

well I also did a bar graph....comparisons are most often done with bar graphs... especially bcuz of the "one axis" that they mentioned..

calm down i havent done any question with a histogram unless it asks for it but this one just tempted me

 

[5aTwA]

yes, i did it as a line graph in the beginning but it seemed wrong to me so i erased and plotted a histogram

 

[Fatima18]

Exactly..rele small...one of them was a straight line and the other a curve.

 

[5aTwA]

Yes that was how it looked, the small one looked so wrong i just had to erase it off

 

[Crusherboyz]

yes, i did it as a line graph in the beginning but it seemed wrong to me so i erased and plotted a histogram

but histograms are used for continuous variables.... this one was fixed.....

Exactly..rele small...one of them was a straight line and the other a curve.

so which one is correct?

 

[Fatima18]

but histograms are used for continuous variables.... this one was fixed.....


so which one is correct?

What do you mean????You were supposed to draw two line graphs..One for fresh and the other for dry milk.So both correct.

 

[5aTwA]

maybe both?

 

[Fatima18]

Yes that was how it looked, the small one looked so wrong i just had to erase it off

I got confused with that too..But well, I left it like that.

 

[Crusherboyz]

What do you mean????You were supposed to draw two line graphs..One for fresh and the other for dry milk.So both correct.

I meant is the histogram/bar graph correct or is the line graph correct...

 

[5aTwA]

well, we lose 2-3 marks if its wrong,

 

[Fatima18]

I meant is the histogram/bar graph correct or is the line graph correct...

I think line graph but well, I cannot be 100% sure

 

[5aTwA]

we dont know,,,, maybe both are correct
