im pretty sure the teachers would check everyone put there number on. a bit stupid if they didnt!!

I guess I just needed to hear it from someone, thanks a lot mate ^^

i thought i did heaps good in this test. 90+

I wasn't too sure what to do with the flow chart. I used the example of peppered moths, and how the fittest will survive and produce offspring just like it. and with the SOLAR question, i thought it was total internal reflection as well just like a fiblre optic cable, so i just wrote reflection.

in mc what was the answer for the corrosion question with the 4 testubes and how water itself does the rust - spent so mch time on the stupid qustion

i chose test tubes with the water only and the oxygen only is that right??

i chose water only , and nothing for the other one. the other is the control.

Re: Science school certificate ??

lol...

Science thread: 30 pages
Geo/Hist thread: 11 pages
Maths thread: 8 pages
English thread: 8 pages

I guess BoS really likes science!!!

great.... i got it wrong

i think...all hope is not lost

 

[hateSKOOL]

i had no idea what to do on the flowchart shit? about natural selection....

lol i agree with that, i wrote moths die and then they get camoflagued and then natural selection I DIDNT STUDY I WAS 2 BUSY PLAYING THE PLAYSTATION 3 hahaha
SUGGESTION- take ICE in exams, it speeds u up HAHAHAHA

 

[k-k-kim]

the test was easy! but that stupid flowchart was confusing. "processes of natural selection".
i thought they was only three components; variation, inheritance and competition("survival of the fittest")

i thought Z was the womb but other are saying the uterus? Someone help?!?
with the flow chart they wanted you to say and explain the keywords. aswell as linking the effects on a species of organisms.
these key words were variation,inheritence,selection and time.
(selection means the same as competition)

 

[zoro88]

I put infectious also. does anyone remember what they put for the compound that is present in both acids? I put hydrogen but others are say oxygen?

ARENT THEY THE SAME THING?? uterus=womb

 

[Mythril]

Well, technically the womb is the uterus but uterus is the scientific term of calling the womb so I guess they would be expecting you to write 'uterus' since it's in a science paper. Also the compound that was present in both acids is hydrogen because Sulfuric acid is (H2SO4) and Hydrochloric acid is (HCl). Therefore the common compound is hydrogen as symbolised by the 'H' in both acids.

 

[zoro88]

to what i've later found out, yes.
here's hoping they let the people off that put womb.
yessssssss thanks.

are you talking about elements like hydrogen....your freaking me out

 

[Mythril]

I would have called hydrogen the common atom in both acids. You could also call it an element but the answer they needed was just hydrogen

 

[zoro88]

for the question choose a theory and show evidence, did anyone else just do the theory of evolution by natural selection??
with evidence being fossils showing changes in simpler organisms/environments to more complex ones.
i thought this would be the most ohvious, also you can write alot of relevent info on this & get top marks.

 

[Mythril]

Lol, for that question, I thought they wanted a different scientific theory other than Darwin/natural selection, since that was the one we had previously done so I put inheritance of acquired characteristics, aka. Lamarckism. My evidence for that was the slow changes in a species as shown in the fossil record of our geological history.

uterus and womb is the same thing

 

[hul0]

you know that question about maintaining humans as functioning organisms...and it said 'use the source but the source was like digestive and excretory systems and i talked about the nervous and endocrine

am i going to fail that question?????
