For measuring the area of feather B on this squared paper. I simply advice you to ignore the feather for just a while like it doesn't exist and start counting the boxes in total like count ever single box you have then simply as you said earlier count The AREA THAT THE FEATHER COVERS including the STICK then simply just subtract the two values that you've got( Total boxes number - Number of boxes covered (E.g Feather, etc) = area of feather.

That's what I usually do, hope my humble bit of a knowledge helps !
Thanks like the all square covered wid featheror or i should count those square covered with more than half and year is may 2011 paper 61

I'm not home:cry:.
but yes as you said count all the squares covered with the feather<-------- which will basically be THE TOTAL NUMBER OF SQUARE I TOLD YOU ABOUT EARLIER.

Then you do the next step which is to count as you said the squares covered with more than half of the feather


LAST STEP IS TO SUBTRACT THE TWO VALUES YOU'VE GOT FROM EACHH OTHER.

Try it out and tell me what happens okay ??
When is your biology paper 6 anyway..?
and when I get home I'll see what I can do for you..:)

GOOD LUCKK !:X3:

Adaptation: Air spaces
To help it stay afloat, so it can receive sunlight and photosynthesise.
Slide prep. :
Cut a very thin section of the stem. And place it on a slide. Add a drop of iodine solution. Place a cover slip over the slide. And wipe off any excess of the solution with a filter paper. Any areas on the cell which show a blue- black colour when viewed under a microscope contain starch grains.

Hope it is right. ;)

(y)(y)! But wait shouldn't we boil the thin stem section, you know in order to get rid of the cell wall before adding the Iodine solution reagent..?

Label? That would be according to the question :) but in the mark scheme they mention that the scale takes is to be 2cm=2o.
