November 2008 SAT Subject Test: Biology

<p>FEED: I think you'd have a 670</p>

<p>Can we compile a question/answer list?</p>

<p>What were the answers to the last four on M-section..
What kind of wavelength do insects/snakes see?</p>

<p>Thanks cgye. :)</p>

<p>Snakes see infrared and insects see UV I believe.</p>

<p>Some random questions I remember...</p>

<p>1.What answer was the one for the cow and bull? was the farmer cheated?
2. Pedigree colorblindness: Was it a sex-linked dominant?
3. White pines/red cedar seedlings...was it limited resources+oak/birch competition?
4. White pines not affected ?</p>

<p>1) I'm not sure, but I put that genotype can't be determined from selective breeding, making the original claim unreasonable.
2) Colorblindness is sex linked recessive
3)I think you're right
4) I can't remember the exact question</p>

<p>People...it is definitely the line graph!!</p>

<p>what answer was the one with the dog's circulatory system?</p>

<p>This source says that a line graph can be used to compare different categories that can be measured on the same scale (growth) and the change in relation to each other</p>

<p>The</a> Quality Toolbook: When to use the Line Graph</p>

<p>Yes, but what if you mix the categories on the x-axis? Then the line graph will change shape. And how can there be intermediate categories? Like if I was doing a survey on men or women, how can there be any category in between that would be measured through a line graph?</p>

<p>ok for the dog circulatory system it was the lungs because structure 5 was referring to the gills of the fish. as for the cow question the farmer was DEFINTELY cheated</p>

<p>what was the AaBBCc one? I put 4 ><</p>

<p>Ya, it was 4</p>

<p>Are you sure that it's 4? Cuz I heard multiple answers of 6 and 8</p>

<p>AaBBCc</p>

<p>You have:</p>

<p>ABC
ABc
aBC
aBc</p>

<p>Overall pretty hard test, I'm expecting around 12 wrong, does that get me atleast 700(+)?</p>

<p>Regarding the hay/minerals/pond water experiment...
Was the experiment testing photosynthesis?
Was the nutrient source hay?</p>

<p>To everyone who thinks it's the line graph: Only choice A on that question omitted the control group completely, so if you don't include the control group, how is the graph acceptable?
And ISaid, the farmer was cheated.</p>

<p>ya but the title of graph A was like "Difference compared with control"</p>

<p>Exactly Xoro,
Be a little bit more objective about it nay-sayers</p>
