This is an exam style question I have written myself It is ideal for use with for pre GCSE revision Quite often our students cannot apply concepts out of normal context and the more practice they can get the better This question covers respiration surface area adaptations for survival VCSRG (Natural selection) Please give feedback so I know if I shoudl continue to keep making these. Constructive feedback welcome for mark scheme answers
