<p>How'd you do?</p>
<p>Bring up my post</p>
<p>Well first time taking it I omitted 10. I tried both E and M and they were both pretty easy (except the last 5 on M…I forgot ALL about electrophoresis and the way the cuts work. And the last 2 I wasn’t certain on). I only omitted 2 in E (what would happen to the lake after the algal bloom? I know it wouldn’t be primary succession and I think I said the oxygen levels would stay high or something like that but I’m not sure if it was correct. Some of these questions I just had never seen before in AP bio or in the barron’s book. Too bad. </p>
<p>Did you ever see your score on the first one, or did you cancel it?
I put primary succession :l</p>
<p>I was planning on taking E but looked at the first five questions and didnt know them so I decided to take M. There were a lot of questions on the test that I never learned in my AP class or seen in the study books. </p>
<p>what did you guys get for the very last question in M, was it cell wall? i wasnt sure. I said it was a carbohydrate and cellulose.</p>
<p>Your right, it was cell wall</p>
<p>Thanks! what was the answer for whether the algae eating rate would change, for the fungi question? the options were that it would increase, stay the same, or decrease i think. I left it blank </p>
<p>also the question for the minimum amount of nucleotides needed to make 100 amino acids - I put over 300 but I was between that and 250.</p>
<p>@ramenforlife i did 300 but am not 100% sure. What was the independent variable in the clam experiment with the sea water and food? </p>
<p>it was more than 300 because 100*3(per codon) + extra. Independent variable was the salinity. Permafrost question and general difficulty of this exam in comparison to others?</p>
<p>What is the most diverse species? Angiosperms, gymnosperms, ferns, mosses, or something else? I put angiosperms - complete guess.</p>
<p>Which enzyme digests meat first? It was either pepsin (found in stomach and digests protein) or amalyse (found in mouth and digests carbs)? I put amaylse because meat has some carbs?</p>
<p>wait… wasn’t one of the options arthropods?</p>
<p>I don’t think so…</p>
<p>the most diverse was arthropods. i also said pepsin @JohnSmith52 . thanks @AznStevy i wasnt sure because i know some codons can make different amino acids – like instead of 64, it was 61 different codons – again not sure though.</p>
<p>@AznStevy for the permafrost q I put the rising oil after the glaciers thawed. I wasnt sure I guessed. Overall I didnt think this test was bad at all. It matched pretty well to my PR book. I was really worried because I looked through a 2003 Kaplan prep book and it had so many specific details…</p>
<p>ALSO there were like no hormone questions! or circulatory questions thank god</p>
<p>there was this diagram of a cell going through protein synthesis and we had to label mature mRNA. That’s the RNA in the ribosome right? (not the one in the nucleus?)</p>
<p>yeah thats what I put @hsperson123 . the first 3 questions were tropical rain forest, north coniferous forest and tundra right? i was stuck on those</p>
<p>3 more questions:</p>
<p>A embryo for some reason cannot under go apoptosis (cell death). Will that cause…
-cleft palate
-webbed feet
-some other stuff
-or in proper development (this is what I put…because it’s so general I think no apoptosis will cause improper development)</p>
<p>There was another question about general characteristics of invertebres…I don’t remember the answers</p>
<p>And finally where is RNA synthesized? The nucleus? Because ribosome is protein synthesis.</p>
