smh forgot about the GOAT subject. honestly its been pre easy, im essentially done writing the reflection and major work just doing touch ups. takes the stress out of having another exam yk.i fully forgot ext2 english was a thing
how was it? what did you write about?
I wrote a critical response into the utility of dystopian fiction in revealing societal progress and concerns of eras. It is called
“OLD FEARS ARE NEW AGAIN”
How Dystopian Fiction Represents a Barometer of the Ages
This says what it's about from my reflection:
Accordingly, my major work, a critical analysis titled "“OLD FEARS ARE NEW AGAIN” How Dystopian Fiction Represents a Barometer of the Ages", is an evaluation of whether the concerns of yesteryear are still constant today through the analysis of four dystopian texts across two time periods (1930-1940 & 2000-present). Ultimately, I aimed to illustrate how dystopian literature is utilised by authors as the principal genre for discussing anxieties of the respective age and the effect this had on the audience. My piece therefore critically analyses the ways in which authors Aldous Huxley, Ayn Rand, Kazuo Ishiguro, and Neal Shusterman in their respective texts of Brave New World (1932) by Aldous Huxley and Ayn Rand’s novella Anthem (1938), as well as, the novels Never Let Me Go (2005) by Kazuo Ishiguro and Neal Shusterman’s Scythe (2016) appeal to the audience to understand the overarching issues of any specific time. These issues specifically relate to the scrutinisation of the overarching consequences of living under oppressive systems, the importance of individuality, and the futile pursuit of utopia in their relation to power. This thus enables my piece to act as an investigation into which social, cultural and political concerns persist across multiple time periods, hence applying in practice the idea that dystopian fiction is a barometer of the ages. The structure of the essay is filtered through the three subheadings pertaining to relevant societal ills: ‘The Futility of the Utopian Vision’ (1), The Issue of Oppressive Systems within Supposed Utopian Visions (2), The Treatment of the Important Individual within “Utopian” Society (3).

well done!guys I did chem exam, I think it might have gone slightly ok so yay : )))))))))))))), now to study for EES tomorrow morning
excuse me but how do I do this
I can't tell if it's dominant or recessive - assuming recessive bc it skips a gen, but then it says the guy is a carrier which would mean he's heterozygous???

I don't do bio but I think i remember some of this from yr 10. Wouldn't it be 25% if both the female and male carrier are heterozygous? I don't think it says the male carrier is affected by it, just a carrier
Okay so then are we saying the guy is XrY and the mum is XRXR?

Okay so I did the smart thing and checked the sols: this is their reasoning:
B. It is an autosomal recessive condition (otherwise a male could not be a carrier). Individual III-3 must be Aa (since one of per parents has the condition, but she does not), as does the father of the child. There is a 25% chance that their child will be AA.
