[Bio] HKDSEE 2018 Debriefing

HKDSEE 2018 Debriefing

Greetings!

The exam has just been over so wanna initiate a debriefing session here.

Paper (I)
Um... The MCQ looked tricky, but the general feeling was fine. In fact, the entire paper was decent to me.
My answers to IA:
1. D C B A D
6. D A C C A
11. D A C A D
16. D C A B D
21. C A B A D
26. A B A B C
31. C C B D D
36. C
Very uncertain about some questions. I didn't do my revision well so forgive me if I made silly mistakes.
You're more than welcome to post yours. To keep it simple, just list out those different from mine.
Regarding IB, I wanna know what did you all write for the last essay question. It seemed like very simple to answer. I was not sure if all the aerobic respiration processes should be comprised for explanation. I didn't write much as in hurry.

Paper II
I chose Questions 1 & 3. What were your answers for the other environmental factors in Q1?

Overall, this set is like the 2013's. To me, 2012 & 2014 still remain the most difficult in the HKDSEE history.

Q35 i think a because it is left

TOP

Q 9 should be D as DNA in each individual also distinct
Q16 should be C as fruit contain seed with diff genotype with potato tuber which is identical to parent
Q18 is C as starch in mouth is converted to maltose not glucose
Q24 i guess is B as no O2 absorbed and hence no active transport to absorb minerals A is wrong as leaves cannot produce O2 for other part to use
Q29 is D as biomass means dry mass and plants absorb CO2 for photo to make food
Q30 is B obviously
Q31 is B obviously
Q34 is A as muscle of the aorta cannot contract or relax only the muscular wall at the arteriole opening can contract to regulate the blood flow
Q35 should be right ventricle you can just search online for the labelled diagram

Hey here! Thanks for your reply!

Um...
Q9. That's a struggle to me. I agree Option D is true, but these differences are phenotypes which can be traced down to DNA. I remember species are classified at molecular levels in taxonomy, even though each individual has variations. Just general speaking.
Q16. My bad. I interpreted as "which parts have different genotypes from the others".
Q18. Again, a struggle. I thought salivary secretion began before chewing, but I agree with you. C is the direct incorrect option.
Q24. After reconsideration, yours is true.
Q25. But bulkiness cannot be told from the graph either. Instead, retention time directly affects passive transport.
Q29. Yes, photosynthesis accounts for food production. I just thought plant growth relies on metabolism which consumes oxygen.
Q30. Yes, yours is correct. I just over interpreted. I thought other parts could carry relevant materials to the target leaf for metabolism, thus releasing vapor.
Q31. We're the same.
Q34. My bad again.
Q35. Yes, but shouldn't it be D as mentioned above then?

I appreciate your careful eyes! You will probably attain a perfect score.

Q9 is mentioned on textbook I guess it is more reliable for eaa to support its ans but in fact it is also uncertain
Q35 Ys D I just reply for the previous challenge haha
Thx for your appreciation but LQ and PP2 matter most :'(

Q35 should be D.
As you can see the muscle wall on L.H.S is thicker than R.H.S..
Therefore, the R.H.S. (X) should be the right ventricle (compare to the location of the valve) and pumping blood to the pulmonary artery.

Yes, D as I mentioned originally. Identification of the bicuspid is the most direct way.

Q25 should be D ys I guess wrongly it is deducing option D is more related to time

I think that Q31 should be B.
As we know that chemical X is used for water vapour absorption.
The water loss is mainly due to transpiration ~90%.
For normal plant, there are more stomata at the lower leaf so transpiration rate is faster that upper leaf.
As a result, the mass of X in the lower part would be increase faster than that on the top.

It seems not related to photosynthesis/respiration rate because it not related to transpiration.

Ys ar Q31 should be B my typo sor

Why I chose C for Q.31 was that photosynthetic products could be used for respiration which produced vapors. If the P rate goes beyond the R rate, the plant is actively producing vapor.
I was thinking of B for a while, but I thought we couldn't conclude if the increases were insignificant unless with consistency. Besides, isn't that a terrestrial plant has no stomata across the upper epidermis at all?
I'm thinking the reason of setting the air-tied condition in this question... Maybe it's a hint.
You know what, you all are great brains, but I just hate the way HKEAA sets those questions with blurred meanings. Scientifically, all the options in many questions are correct. There's no "best" options but "superficial" ones.

No, I think that respiration would not produce water vapour but water is produced. The water formed inside the cells, evaporate into the airspace and diffuse out from the leave. It relates to the transpiration.

In addition, no stomata not equal to no transpiration, it can reduce the water loss but NOT prevent the water loss . Some plants may have stomata on the top, Just like tomato has ~1200/cm^2 stomata on the upper epidermis.
