The assessment covers aerobic versus anaerobic cellular respiration, including exothermic processes, lactic acid production, glucose and oxygen requirements, and ATP yield comparisons. It also assesses field ecology sampling using small squares to estimate snowdrop numbers via mean, area calculations and bias-aware data collection, and includes circulatory system questions on substance exchange and heart structure function.","*1376030313*  \nOxford Cambridge and RSA  \nFriday 7 June 2024 – Afternoon  \nGCSE (9–1) Biology B (Twenty First Century Science) J257/04 Depth in Biology (Higher Tier)  \nTime allowed: 1 hour 45 minutes  \nYou must have:  \n• a ruler (cm/mm)  \nYou can use:  \n• an HB pencil  \n• a scientific or graphical calculator  \nH  \n* J 2 5 7 0 4 *  \n\n| Please write clearly in black ink.
