Name Dr Devitt Test 1
Description These questions are designed to test your knowledge and understanding of:
Lecture 1: Introduction to Cell Biology
Lecture 2: Cellular Organelles
Instructions A range of question formats is included in this test. Follow the individual question guidance.
After each answer click the right hand arrowhead to move to the next question or the left hand
arrow head to go to the previous question. You will be asked to confirm submission after each
and every question. If you haven't answered the whole question you will see a reminder.
After you have submitted your test answers, you will see your mark for the test. Keep working
at the test to improve your performance. Remember that it is your FINAL attempt that counts.
You may take the test as often as you wish.
You may use books and lecture notes. If you don't know an answer it is worth looking it up -
when you get it right you'll stand a good chance of remembering that information.
Remember that YOU need to work on this. The test is designed to help you improve. So if you
get the answers from someone else, you may do well in this test but you won't improve and will
do badly in the mid-sessional and final exams.
If you are having problems then contact Andrew Devitt immediately - it is no good moaning after
the deadline that you couldn't get it to work. Sort problems out before the deadline!
