HSC Biology exam paper (1 Viewer)

[blinx96]

well bio is my last exam for my HSC (yay!!! and congrats on finishing the HSC to others as well who also have biology as their last exam) so i was wondering if people are willing to guess whats gonna turn up in this years paper?
personally, i think the imbalance of microflora and an example will be there, as well as something to do with prions, viruses etc. as well as transgenics (or reproductive technologies), some random epidemology study thing, something on mutations, ADH/alodsterone, something to do with historical traces/development of malaria and changes in chemical composition of blood as it passes through certain organs in the body

I reckon it's going to be from maintaining a balance this year.. Hope it's not kidney..

Maybe "gather, process and analyse information from secondary sources to compare the process of renal dialysis with the function of the kidney" somewhere in short answer. Can't remember seeing a recent one asking that?

Im hoping it will be from S4BH. I know it was last year, but they have done 2 in a row from Blue print in 2009 and 2010.

This was in my trials :O

And and i reckon a long response on Epidemiology is due? Our school does 2 trials and both of ours had them.

What was long response for CSSA?
