If they give conditions like male and female parts matured at different timings, insect with two flower pollination will be correct.
But conditions said male and female part bloomed same time and stay live 7 days. But one part die 2 days earlier than other. So We no need to think about later part. It means 7 days Anther and stigma stay live for pollination. One (same)flower insect pollination will be correct answer.

Did the conditions say male and female part bloomed same time and stay alive for 7 days?

Anyone can help verify?

My daughter said that she recalled that the question did not state that. Instead, the question only stated that the pistil opened up for 2 days before dying, and then the stamen opened up afterwards and died after a while. Since both the pistil and the stamen did not open at the same time, the anther could not transfer its pollen grains to the stigma, so reproduction cannot occur within that one flower.
Her answer was 1 insect 2 Flowers. :nailbite:

hi lee_yl, my DS said the same thing about the question. His answer is also by insect & 2 flowers.

Sorry to interrupt here. If anyone of you is giving away your stack of P6 2018 past year papers for maths and science, may I have them please? I don’t mind done copies as well. I still cannot find 2018 P6 SA1 test papers online. :sad:


Please pm me. Thanks a lot.

Thanks! So 7 weeks later will be just tally DD2 results with the COP range of those schools and list the choices out in preferral order. Short and sharp, no need jjww speculating too many irregulated variables of individual schools.

Since many find the PSLE Maths paper easy this year, that means overall, many tend to do very well.

After moderation -

does it mean that in order to secure an A *, one need at least a minimum of above 95 marks (Raw score) , instead of just hitting 91, on the dot (boundary) ?

If Raw score is just 91, could end up with an A, instead of A *, since many tend to do well for Maths ?

I have compiled in table form here to make it easier for parents. Sorted in descending order of COP. You just need to eliminate those schools that are not for your child’s gender, not in your travel zone etc, and you will have a shortlist of 6 choices. https://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=91634&start=10
