Examiners report

This was another question that was difficult for students. This question again required students to understand one of the skills from the subject guide, this time in topic 9.2 (Identification of xylem and phloem in microscope images of stem and root). Student responses to this question, however, suggested that few students could identify phloem and xylem under a microscope.
