CSEC Biology · May/June 2005 · Paper 2 · Question 1(a)(iv)

Students are studying a habitat and have collected data on the distribution of organisms, as shown in Table 1.

Identify TWO carnivores from the data contained in Table 1 and the pie chart.

This question uses a figure or table from the paper — you'll see it when you practise.

The mark scheme is shown once you've answered.
