This is the first assignment of the unit 6 coursework, it includes all the aims needed to achieve a distinction grade as well as background, method, pictures, full bibliography and also areas where to resumbit your assignment if needed. It ends with a full evaluation. Use this assignment as a guide only and do not copy. Good luck!

Hello, this is a D* (Distinction) grade on unit 4D. This assignment includes information on 1 case study and 2 companies to achieve distinction standard. All references are included at the bottom. (Message me to discuss different prices!)

The relationship between light and photosynthesis is very important as plants cannot begin to synthesise without the energy produced by light. The more light received the increased rate of photosynthesis due to the presence of light giving energy to the reactions to photosynthesis. The intensity of light in relation to the inverse square law is the energy of intensity changes in inverse proportion to the square of the distance from the source. The further you are from the energy source, the decr...

Consists of merit and attempted distinction at partly met. Pass is a separate presentation which i have uploaded separately.

Overall Merit and distinction was partly met. Consists of task 2 and 3, anaerobic respiration experiment and results. The effect of smoking, and pollutants on respiration.

This document consists of Pass, merit and distinction. The distinction was partly met so overall got a merit.

The reproductive system of the body consists of tissues, glands and organs involved in producing offspring by fertilisation of gametes, and by carrying of a foetus. It is also to ensure the survival of species. Both female and male reproductive system consist of genital tract, a tube that runs from the gonads. (National Cancer Institute, 2019)

In this experiment, caffeine was used to determine the increase in heartrate, when increasing the amount of concentration. Caffeine was used on a water flea known called daphnia, to see the outcome. The results show that an increase of caffeine concentration increases the heartrate of the daphnia. This was tested by the daphnia being observed underneath the microscope. This technique was shown to be an effective way of analysing the heartrate, this would mean that the same effect is also opposed...
