October 2009 SAT II - Biology

<p>"but there was an N-C-C, as well as a phosphate attached to it…so I put nucleic acid. I jumped to lipid at first, but then looked carefully at it. "
i think the hydrocarbon chain gave it away as a lipid. plus nucleic acids require deoxiribose or ribose</p>

<p>yeah i got 3 H-bonds for G+C. and i too chose the diagram that showed a twist, a gap in the middle, and another twist, for the DNA strand.</p>

<p>yee so i think i might have missed 5 questions, and i omitted 1. what do you think that’ll equate to?</p>

<p>@bwojo^^^ agreedd
@clois: i made the same number of mistakes as well i think. 5 wrong 1 omit</p>

<p>Yeah. That one was definitely a lipid.</p>

<p>yes i put 3-2-1 too because of where the lines started. and the first one i put 72 i remember.
the macromolecule all i saw was a glycerol attached to something so i just automatically assumed, i could be wrong.
i skipped the muscle question and the savanah/tundra quuestion
i got the where does hte egg get fertilized question wrong too :frowning: :frowning: i put fallopian tube. i want to smack myself in the face.</p>

<p>Omg…this test was so much harder/trickier than the practice tests I’ve been taking. Grrr. I think I’m down to around -5 too.</p>

<p>@rowin: it is the fallopian tube isnt it?!?
@strw: i agreee!!</p>

<p>^^it is fallopian tube though</p>

<p>Wait…the egg DOES get fertilized in the fallopian tube…doesn’t it?</p>

<p>It was a lipid. </p>

<p>"for the DNA strand did you guys get like twisted at bottom and top and a gap in the middle? " yeah, I did. </p>

<p>Jakeiscool, how do you think you did? I think I did pretty well (there are 2-3 I think I got wrong so far).</p>

<p>not so well but my expectations B4 the test was a 750-760. Now after the test, i dunno how i did
i think im 5 wrong 1 omit :confused: but i probably made sum careless mistakes on questions we didnt discuss. Hopefully i didnt</p>

<p>ughhh -4/-5 so far, cant remember what i put for alot of these</p>

<p>the hydrocarbon chain could have been a carbohydrate. they can form chains that look somewhat like the hydrocarbon chain, but are still carbs. Maybe im just being stupid?</p>

<p>Yea I also got: hot springs - 3 - 2- 1
3 H-bonds for G-C
twist, gap, twist
motor neuron for gallbladder
calcium for muscle filament
Co2+H2O for substrates
rainforest for lush vegetation, deciduous trees, and savanna for high elevation (is this right??)
disaccharide for the long H-C chain?
egg in fallopian tube</p>

<p>I put HOX1 gene for telling diff. between animals, plants, and bacteria…because they aren’t even seen on the plants/bacteria…</p>

<p>craaaap i want a 750+
what would ~7-10 wrong be?</p>

<p>oh wait sorry for making everyone panic.
it is fallopian tube,.
i changed my answer last minute to uterus cuz i have issues…obviously.</p>

<p>Btw here are a few more questions:</p>

<p>-The description of eukaryotic organism that had chitinous wall (fungi)</p>

<p>-The deer was primary consumer</p>

<p>-Biomagnification (forget exact question)</p>

<p>Did we decide that the gene question was genetic drift?</p>

<p>The high elevation one is tundra, wasn’t it ?</p>

<p>:/ tom i think its rainforest, desert, tundra ( idun remember the order)</p>

<p>i believe tundra was high elevation/latitudes, and i got HOX1 genes for the same reason</p>

<p>“savanna for high elevation?” I’m pretty sure this is not correct…</p>
