May 2011 - Biology (E/M)

<p>Please tell me 4 was not an option. I looked for it but it was not available so I chose 5.</p>

<p>Yeah, that gills one was tough. I chose countercurrent exchange, and after much research I have found it was the correct answer.</p>

<p>Let’s keep this thread alive guys!</p>

<p>yep! it was on M.
i dont really remember the answer i put exactly but it was the one with the word hydrophobic i think…</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the exact (or close) wording of the isolation question? I don’t really remember what I put @_@</p>

<p>for curiosity who’s never heard of true-breeding plants before? went through barron’s sparknotes kaplan mcgrawhill princetons and not a single one mentioned…</p>

<p>@supergrover yep, body plan highly successful</p>

<p>dudeee, I think I might have actually done well on this thing! yesss - I hope I didn’t just jinx myself</p>

<p>What was the answer to the question about the cockroaches being like their fossils? I put because their structure is highly successful .___.</p>

<p>the lipid one was that they are insoluble in water.
im at -3 right now… no way for an 800 right?</p>

<p>@djumper, is the question you are talking about with fish and mammals an E question?</p>

<p>@greenishred yes ive heard of them many times before, actually, and the answer was same phenotype.</p>

<p>We learned about true-breeding in AP Bio. Campbell is the shiznit - but not suggested for preparing for SAT II :P.</p>

<p>ETa: fish question is ecology</p>

<p>well dammit, im an international student and it wasn’t in a single prep book >.></p>

<p>btw to those of you taking the exam monday…</p>

<p>anybody else really struggling with embryology? my teacher never taught it, and it just seems really difficult</p>

<p>@grover yes, it was the good body structure</p>

<p>@cuba no, it was core questions</p>

<p>well what was the pine trees and mountain one?</p>

<p>My teacher didn’t teach that stuff either. I don’t know a single thing about embryology. I plan on reading Cliffs tomorrow >___<.</p>

<p>read the cliffs cover to cover, feel like i know plenty of details but not enough for free response. going to have to look it over a few more times</p>

<p>Did you look for true-breeding in CliffsAP, Campbell’s, or Peterson’s?</p>

<p>i havent seen anything about true breeding in any of the books that ive looked through. My bio teacher used to teach at a college though, so she knows what shes talking about and mentions it occassionally. though i cant imagine it isnt in the cambell’s somewhere</p>

<p>Yes, true breeding was in Campbell</p>

<p>dont recall a question about gills… but if counter current exchange was an answer choice in a question involving them, it was probably the right one</p>

<p>There was one question on the most fit individual- the one with most surviving offspring, right?</p>

<p>Anyone else got anything to add? There are many more unmentioned and unsettled questions out there!</p>

<p>There were a few that required specific knowledge, such as in what organ is the egg fertilized in? (I looked in Cliffs and the answer is the fallopian tube, which I picked. Yay.)</p>
