unfortionatly i still lost marks in the rest :'( i'll make a total of losing about 30 32 marks :( so that's why i am asking about expected thresholds as if it was like n11 or less!! then maybe i'll have a chance

Guys I think the exam was not that bad :) However, there were some questions (HDR and the puberty curve for example) that were somehow high !!
But the majority of the questions were direct (allopatric speciation, progesterone and other questions) !!
This exam can't be compared to Nov. 2011 !! That exam was completely out of syllabus !! And I think that the A will by no means be less than 70 !!
Good Luck for u all :D

I wrote temperature. Since it was low and constant for all.
the question said FOR THIS SET OF VALUES!
in the rate graph we had plotted, the rate continued ti increase when the light intensity had increased never reaching a contant value meaning that light intensity was limiting.. that is why increasing it led to a higher rate of photosynthesis!

but then at the same time the concentration of co2 was also being increased??So why is CO2 inapropriate as an answwer?

I think the limiting factor was CO2 conc. !!
Unless there is a source of CO2 mentioned in the question, CO2 conc. is always limiting :)
