    "The importance of historians". Hmmm...

    Well this question was OK, could have been better. I just babbled on about how different historians will interpret the case study in different ways as a result of context, values, experiences. Also their different methodologies, aims and purposes ment that we would be shown different aspects of...

    Rome 78-28

    CSSA Trial questions of 2004 were BAD BAD BAD, they asked for an assessment of Cicero (who the hell cares about him!) and the role of Mithradatic wars & Sparticus revolt in contributing to the down fall of the Repulic. Arghhh, everyone screwed up that section. Lets hope they'll be kinder this...

    Differentiating between aims and purpose

    isnt it... Aim = aim of the historian ie what they are trying to do by writing history, why they are writing and who for Purpose = purpose of history ie why do we have history? What is the value of history? why do we study the past? dunno, maybe it's the other way round *shrugs*

    Personality: CAESAR! ARGH!

    yep I'm going over it ALL (I know there is so damn much) but it helps to jog the memory even if you don't know every single detail. Just know your dates, sources, opinions and ideas and you'll be fine! :)

    If they ask about Context in Question 2: Case Study

    This is a good question Hey, don't stress too much about this one, if you've done your work all year you should be fine. Basically, its just asking WHY the different historians have their different interpretations, because we are all inevitably influenced by our context (you should have come...

    DNA replication

    nope. its used as a 'blueprint', cause DNA is the blueprint of life (haha, get it?! sorry, that was bad...:p) DNA unravels, mRNA assembles w/corresponding nucleotides (A-U, G-C) then travels into cytoplasm, tRNA molecules match codons, ribosome does some other stuff and viola! you have a...

    artificial blood

    easy question! mentioned that theres a lack of donated blood, to meet demand they need to formulate artificial blood. PFC (perflurocarbons) was the example that I used, and although it can carry more O2 than Haemoglobin it cant yet carry nutrients, wastes hormones etc therefore they need to...
