For the Grandma/Tomato passage, what did you replace for "wedge"?
-Division
-Intervention
-...</p>

<p>I put division.

</p>

<p>It was division because the passage mentions how she "defied her father to play with him"... So his friendship divided the narrator between her family and her crush.</p>

<p>IVY: Yeah, that was my reasoning as well</p>

<p>Tuesday? Awesome. I thought we would have to wait a few months</p>

<p>Any one who got the sports essay, would these three main points be OK</p>

<p>Playing sports instills:</p>

<p>Determination
Time Management
How to work in a team</p>

<p>for science:</p>

<p>was 1.1 an answer for male/female chimpanzees?
which group showed the greatest amount of monomorphism?</p>

<p>I'm certain the poor ACT graders will sit through a lot of those essays, because I used the top two of those points as well... I also gave a personal anecdote on how playing flag football helped me realize that one must look at big picture (the plays) and the small details (individual runners) and related that to chemistry concepts. That essay was a lot of fun!</p>

<p>Well mine are basically synonymous with yours Jay. I wrote about organization on the team leads to organization in the classroom (notes, homework, etc). I wrote about obedience, alluding to the whistle in games and the cadence of a quarterback. I also wrote about effort also. Then I wrote a paragraph on how it wouldn't work, because that's what the sample 6 on act.com--so, why not? I also alluded those attributes to their future in the workforce.</p>

<p>Jay: That should be fine, provided that you drew connections between those concepts and academics. (Working as a team--group discussions, hearing other opinions, etc.)</p>

<p>Yeah I did allusions to the workforce as well, there was no real creative way to approach that essay, so I just went with a simple boring approach.</p>

<p>Grumpy: I remember getting 1.1 as well. Not sure about the other question however, I want to say Gorillas though.</p>

<p>edit: TSA: Yeah I did that as well, sweet.</p>

<p>I said sports teaches you things that can not be found in school, such as leadership and time management. Then stated how it helps you in life, but do much linkage. Only a few times :(</p>

<p>hm, i said apes for one and gibbons for another. but that was when i was REALLY short on time. crap, i think i bombed science</p>

which group showed the greatest amount of monomorphism?

</p>

<p>Largest monomorphism was the graph with the most species (19 of them I believe) that had ratios of 1.0 M/F... It was either 3rd or 4th graph, but I can't remember the name of the group.</p>

<p>It was NOT gorillas since they were 1.4... Monomorphic is 1.0</p>

<p>a+b+c problem was easy</p>

<p>the MAXIMUM B cam be is 29, the MAX A could be was -1....so MIN of C.....-1 + 29 + Minumum C = 60</p>

<p>Hope that helps</p>

<p>The Primijis-blah-blah had the greatest monomorphism (it was located on the one). I got gorillas as an answer also. Also, what was the first question about orangatangs.</p>

<p>Gibbons... Yeah maybe I put that not Gorillas.. regardless it was a G word.. just remember GO for some reason</p>

<p>"What was their ratio?" I have no idea what it was, but it was a simple matter of reading orangutan ratio off the graph.</p>

<p>IvyLeague is right. It was the group starting with a "P", on the bottom left.</p>

<p>Gibbons? Remember on the final chart though, the P word had the largest column on the number 1; the number 1 signified monomorphism.</p>

<p>Wasnt the one with the most morphisim the one the furthest to the right..</p>

<p>Jay, that would be dimorphism if the value was >1. Atleast I think.</p>

<p>The ones with the highest MHRH were the Gorillas, I believe.</p>
