This one is decidated to the Open University in honour of the following question:
Identify the incorrect statements and show clearly why they are wrong:
C - radiolarians are phytoplankton characterised by intricate calcareous shells
I answered that one, or so I thought. I marked it incorrect and said they had siliceous shells.
A week later, I was looking through example questions and noticed that nearly of them had two mark answers. (not one mark for true/false and one for why, but 0 for true/false and two for why) So I took a second look at this one... Radiolarians are not phytoplankton, they're zooplankton. (they don't photosynthesise, they eat things) I'm now looking for two points to make in every single multiple choice answer.
Like I said, this course is making me think...
And besides, it's a pretty picture. It's a radiolarian, shown much much bigger than it really is.
