<p>What were the other cells?</p>

<p>it never asked for identification right? just asked for main cell function…?</p>

<p>lalaluna, i think that was a gland cell because it synthesizes lipids and proteins, the two main signal molecules</p>

<p>all cells were eukaryotic though</p>

<p>I put photosynthesis cell for the first one. Does that even exist?</p>

<p>sorry i meant to say cell x…
the one that didn’t have the smooth and rough er?</p>

<p>o i think it was muscle</p>

<p>Omg how big is the curve??</p>

<p>the question asked you a function of the cell type… not what it is…</p>

<p>trick question anybody? I literally wrote “produces protein/lipids” and “produces atp” based on the data</p>

<p>you identified the cells? i remember it only asked for main cell function… no?</p>

<p>^^yeah it asked for primary function you didn’t have to identify the cell itself.</p>

<p>wait graph 1 was the bacteriohoposis and graph 2 was chlorophyll right?</p>

<p>You did’t have to mention WHAT cell it is. You just needed to say its main function.
Cell X: respiration
Cell Y: protein synthesis
Cell Z: transportation?</p>

<p>@jackpot: yup!!</p>

<p>Did anyone know the environmental cues part of FRQ1? I totally bombed the first FRQ.</p>

<p>^ that was a 3 pointer right? the cell question on frq?</p>

<p>i just said its main function, not the type. like i wrote “This one is to mainly produce proteins and lipids for the cell and outside of the cell through the golgi body packaging it…”</p>

<p>i said something about sending a message to the brain, completely bsed it and probably got it wrong</p>

<p>@writingonstars</p>

<p>I wrote sunlight/temperature blah blah … it asked you to propose a model of environmental influences? correct me if im wrong</p>

<p>@writingonstars
i said… perhaps smell? and maybe social cues? when more flies accumulate towards the glucose soaked cotton, others follow? :S</p>

<p>mc was eaiser than i expected, frqs about the same. hopefully i got about 85% right on the mc and 60% of the frq. Praying for a 4</p>
