Firstly, make sure you re-read and have understood the question! This will give you an idea of what ideas and themes to look out for. Read the poem several times and mentally address these questions as yo...

We inherit two copies of a gene called alleles, one from each parent. The alleles we inherit from our parents can either be dominant or recessive. A dominant allele requires just one copy of the allele to...

Mitosis is a form of asexual reproduction in plants. A parent cell splits into 2 identical daughter cells. There are 46 Chromosomes in each cell and each chromosome is copied exactly, using chromatids to ...

We use the quotient rule here which states that if y = f(x)/g(x) then dy/dx = (f'(x)g(x) - g'(x)f(x)) / (g(x)^2). Here f(x) = 4x and g(x) = x^2 + 5, so we have f'(x) = 4 , g'(x) = 2x. This gives us dy/dx ...
