**SAT 2 Biology Discussion Thread Oct 2015**

@daviinye Which experiment? Was that on the ecology portion?

yeah the mountain tree and pH one

What was the answer?

for the last one? i put more data points should be collected but i have a feeling that its wrong

I hope it’s not wrong. I really need some right ones now…I’m praying for a good curve :frowning:

The question was which person is most vulnerable to a fever.

whichever has the least amount of white blood cells

and i put there should be more data points

So is it the one with high wbc count or low wbc count that has (or is it ‘likely to get’) a fever?

I’m pretty sure the question was referring to someone who already had a fever

Anyway, what was that insecticide question…

Was it behaviorial adaptations or something like that?

Or perhaps was it that some kill the natural predators due to large amounts

Oh wait, DDT…yeah biological magnification.

idk tho

What would I probably get if I skipped 4 and perhaps got 3, 4, or 5 wrong?

Was the alpine question part of the E or common section? Also, there was a question about mutations (I forget whether it was common or M). It was which of these is not a mutation, and the options were substitution of a base pair, deletion of a DNA triplet, and something with posttranscriptional DNA. What was the answer to that one?

im pretty sure it was the posttranscription *RNA, not DNA. I just looked it up and it seems as if all the others are mutations making the alst one the correct one (I chose that answer as well)

Ya me too

and the answer was magnification, whichever choice contained something along those lines
