Director for Education and Skills
In 2015, over half a million students…
… took an interna9onally agreed 2-hour test…
extrapolate from what they know and crea'vely apply their knowledge in novel situa'ons
… and responded to ques9ons on…
Parents, principals, teachers and system leaders provided data on:
Drag Ragworms and Common Sole into Tank 2 and Marsh Grass and Shellfish into Tank 3
This question requires students to understand a system and the role of several organisms within that
correctly, students must understand the goal of the fish farm, the function of each of the three tanks therein, and which organisms will best fulfill each function. Students must use information provided in the stimulus and the diagram, including a footnote under the diagram
