Few Questions on AP Biology

<li><p>How much do we have to know about the Phylae of Protists (algae), Plants (cones, flower, mosses), and animals? Is it straight up memorizing the traits of each, or knowing the most important ones and general traits of each kingdom?</p></li>
<li><p>On Essay questions, would the essay graders have any objection to this: You write as much as you want, and even if some of it is incorrect, they only grade you on what is right. If you write everything you know about say enzymes, half of it might not be in the rubric, but the other half could end up giving you all the credit you need, right?</p></li>
<li><p>What drawings should I be extremely familiar with? I saw the structure of a leaf on one practice exam and I knew the parts and what they did, but not where they were. Cell diagrams is a big one, but what about kidney diagrams, the process of translation, difference between two types of jellyfish, etc.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>We have to know diagrams of jellyfish??</p>

<ol>
<li>Both, you need to know their traits and the specific kinds from each kingdom, if you have cliffnotes, that would help.</li>
</ol>

<p>2.its based on the judgement on the reader, as long you adress the question. Check some last years free-responses in collegeboard for scoring guideline to see what their looking for.</p>

<li>IMO everthing, AP bio is so braod that thers so much to cover in the exam. I am so sure the diagrams last year, but i was totally worried about diagrams how water and carbs are transported by the roots to the trunk to leaves and a cross-section of the stems and know the differences between the two types. (hope you know what im talking about b/c i forgot the terms)</li>
</ol>

<p>xylem phloem?
Honestly the exam is SOOO broad any basic knowledge about a wide range of stuff will be enough on the MC, free response I am not sure though. It will probably be hard.</p>
