Hun, I use web based messengers for all my accounts while I'm at work. But I can only use them out of office hours. I.E - When I'm on nightshifts.

 

At the moment I'm on day's and can't get on a messenger!

Showmasters Crime Lab Exam : Number 2

Biology

 

Below are some questions and next to each question is a number in brackets, these indicate the number of points you can get for each question and can indicate also how much detail is needed for each answer.

 

I know that most of you have chosen particular fields of interest and this shouldn't be something that you need to know, or even research but I will be asking questions appertaining to each chosen field. So every one will have their chance to shine!

 

This is only for fun and is in no way meant to challenge you. I researched it easily enough so it shouldn't take you guys long to find all the information needed.

 

I'll give you a week starting from now. So on the 3rd December at midnight I expect all your answers emailed to me at smaug @ vaguely-me.com. You can email them sooner but I will only take your FIRST set of answers.

 

See below for the questions!

I know, but some more time would still be nice. :)

Maybe for the next test you could make it 2 weeks instead of 1 and then see if more people reply then. If not, you can always change it back to 1 again.
