In every unit 4 paper, there is a 5 or 6 marks question about speciation and natural selection, can someone give me an answer good enough to score full marks in that question?
Question 6 C in this paper for example

I have a problem with paper 3b (paper 7)
when plotting graphs ..
how should i join the points ?
should i draw a smooth curve and ignore all points which are out of it or join the anyway ?
and some graphs look like they should be joined using a ruler .. should i join all lines or just ones that fit in .. ?
Thanks in advance  :D

Graphs in biology are joined using a ruler. Do not draw a curve or ignore a point that seems to be an error (unless they ask; they never did though)

For AS I used Ann fullick's book and for A2 I'm using CJ clegg.
Never heard of the stafford book. Personally, I think sticking to one book is a good idea.

Yes, If you know how to use it.
print the specification and always get back to it after studying a topic, just to make sure you haven't missed anything.

Regarding the unit 3b
there is always a field report
some would require you to analyse issues (i.e. ethical, economical, social etc)
would anyone care to tell the essence of those questions
like how to answer them, the key points to spot etc
thanks in advance

You can round it to 0.1 or draw it a little below 0.1  It must seem correct by eye and not 100% correct.
