Primary scores in biology.

2018-2019 academic year will be graduation for many Russian schoolchildren who are already concerned about successfully passing the Unified State Exam and successfully entering a good university.

We will tell you how exam papers are checked in different subjects, how the scale for converting Unified State Exam points into grades works, and what innovations you can expect in 2019.

Principles for assessing work on the Unified State Exam 2019

Over the course of several recent years Unified State Exam system in a number of subjects has undergone significant changes and has been brought to an optimal (in the opinion of the organizers) format, which makes it possible to fully assess the volume of knowledge of a graduate in a particular subject.

In 2018-2019, no fundamental changes are expected and it is safe to say that the same principles as in 2017-2018 will be applied to evaluate the work of graduates:

  1. automated verification of forms;
  2. involving experts in checking tasks with detailed answers.

How does a computer evaluate?

First part exam paper involves a short answer to the questions posed, which the Unified State Exam participant must enter on a special answer form.

Important! Before starting work, be sure to read the rules for filling out the form, as incorrectly completed work will not pass the automated check.

It is quite difficult to challenge the result of a computer check. If the work was not counted due to the fault of a participant who filled out the form incorrectly, the result is considered unsatisfactory.

How do experts rate it?

In many subjects, in addition to the test part, there are tasks that require a full, detailed answer. Since it is impossible to automate the process of checking such answers, experts are involved in the verification - experienced teachers with extensive work experience.

Checking Unified State Exam teacher does not know (and even with a strong desire cannot find out) whose work lies in front of him and in what city (region) it was written. Verification is carried out on the basis common criteria assessments designed specifically for each subject. Each work is checked by two experts. If the experts’ opinions coincide, the assessment is put on the form, but if independent appraisers disagree, then a third expert is involved in the verification, whose opinion will be decisive.

That is why it is important to write legibly and accurately so that there is no ambiguous interpretation of words and phrases.

Primary and test scores

Based on the test results, the Unified State Exam participant is awarded a certain number of primary points, which are then converted into text points (points for the entire test). IN different subjects There are different maximum primary points depending on the number of tasks. But after giving the result according to the corresponding table, the Unified State Exam participant receives the final test score, which is the official result of his final tests (maximum 100 points).

So, in order to pass the exam, it is enough to score the established minimum threshold primary score:

Minimum scores

Russian language

Mathematics (profile)

Informatics

Social science

Biology

Geography

Literature

Based on these numbers, you can accurately understand that the exam has been passed. But what grade? The 2018 online scale will help you with this, designed specifically for converting primary Unified State Exam scores into test scores, which will also be relevant for the 2019 results. A convenient calculator can be found on the website 4ege.ru.

Announcement of official results

Graduates are always concerned with the question of how quickly they can find out what result was obtained during the test and what the scale for converting the points scored on the Unified State Exam into traditional grades will be in 2019.

Teachers often take it upon themselves to reassure students by working through the tasks of the Unified State Exam tickets immediately after the exam and assessing the quality of the students’ work and the amount of initial points scored. Official results must be waited for 8-14 days, according to the established regulations conducting the Unified State Exam-2019. On average, organizers approve the following inspection schedules:

  • 3 days to check the work;
  • 5-6 days for processing information at the federal level;
  • 1 working day for approval of the results of the State Examination;
  • 3 days to post results online and transfer data to educational institutions.

In the event of unforeseen situations and technical problems, these deadlines may be revised.

You can find out your owl score:

  • directly at your school;
  • on the portal check.ege.edu.ru;
  • on the website gosuslugi.ru.

Converting points to grades

Since 2009, Unified State Examination results are not included in the graduate certificate. Therefore, today there is no official state system converting the Unified State Examination result into a grade on a school 5-point scale. As part of the entrance campaign, the test score obtained in the exam is always summed up and taken into account. But many students are still interested in finding out how they passed the exam - 3 or 4, 4 or 5. For this there is special table, which details the correspondence for each of the 100 points for each subject.

Russian language

Mathematics

Informatics

Social science

Foreign languages

Biology

Geography

Literature

Using such a table is quite inconvenient. It is much easier to find out how you passed the Russian language, mathematics or history by using the online calculator 4ege.ru, which also contains a scale for converting Unified State Exam scores, which is relevant for graduates of 2019.

Having received the Unified State Exam result, you should decide on a university as quickly as possible, comparing your capabilities with the real competition for the specialties you are interested in. Thus, the practice of past years shows that in some cases it is difficult to get into the most popular areas in the capital’s universities even with high scores, because not only holders of 100-point Unified State Exam results, but also winners of the largest Olympiads of the 2018-2019 academic year will compete for places.

In 2018, more than 133 thousand people took part in the Unified State Examination in Biology, which is slightly more than the number of exam participants in 2017 (111,748), 2016 (126,006) and 2015 (122,936). The biology exam is traditionally in demand and is one of the five most popular final elective exams. It is chosen by biology-motivated graduates entering medical, veterinary, agricultural universities, psychological and biological faculties of universities, academies and institutes physical culture and sports and a number of other universities.

In 2018, the average test score was 51.4. Its slight decrease compared to last year is primarily due to a decrease in the proportion of participants in the test score range of 61–80 (by 2.26%) and an increase in the proportion of participants in the range of 41–60 (by 3.26%). At the same time, there is a persistent downward trend in the number of participants with results in the range of 81–100. The reduction in the proportion of high-scoring students can be explained by a set of measures to improve the quality of verification of detailed answers by experts of regional subject commissions, as well as the inclusion in Part 2 of the KIM of new topics of a specific, contextual, practice-oriented nature, which required clear argumentation, and not the reproduction of general or specific knowledge on the subject. This allowed for better differentiation of participants with high test scores.

The minimum test score in 2018, as in previous years, was 36 points, and the primary score was 16 points. The share of USE participants in biology who did not score the minimum number of points in 2018 was 17.4%. Compared to 2017, the share of participants who scored test scores in the range of 41–60 was 40.6% (in 2017 – 37.3%), and in the range of 61–80 was 25.6% (in 2017 – 27.9%).

In 2018, 48 graduates completed all exam tasks and scored 100 points, which amounted to 0.04% of total number Unified State Examination participants. The data obtained indicate, on the one hand, that there is sufficient high level the complexity of the KIM Unified State Exam 2018 model and, on the other hand, the availability of tasks, which is confirmed by the distribution of primary and test scores of participants.

More detailed analytical and teaching materials The 2018 Unified State Exam is available here.

EXAMINATION PLAN for the Unified State Exam in Biology

Generalization and application of knowledge about humans and the diversity of organisms

Task C4 (25) includes questions related to the content blocks “System and diversity of the organic world” and “The human body and its health.”

SYSTEM AND DIVERSITY OF THE ORGANIC WORLD

    Solving cytology problems to apply knowledge in a new situation

    Task C6 (26) includes tasks in cytology related to the processes of implementation of hereditary information and cell division.These problems are good because the questions are specific and precise. On the other hand, they are quite complex and require a deep understanding of the processes about which we're talking about. An important point when solving tasks C5 is the explanation of the actions being performed, especially if the task says: “Explain your answer.” The presence of explanations allows the evaluator to draw a conclusion about the student’s understanding of this topic, and their absence can lead to the loss of a very important point.

    Task C6 (26) is worth three points, which are awarded in case of a completely correct solution. Therefore, when starting a task, first of all it is necessary to highlight all the issues. The number of answers must correspond to them, otherwise you may also lose a point.

    When solving a number of problems in this section, you must use the table genetic code. The rules for using the table are usually indicated in the assignment, but it is better to learn this in advance. To determine the amino acid encoded by a particular triplet, you must perform the following steps. We find the first nucleotide of the triplet in the left vertical row, the second in the upper horizontal row, the third is in the right vertical row. The desired amino acid is located at the intersection point of the imaginary lines, coming from nucleotides.

    TASKS ON QUANTITATIVE RELATIONS IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF HEREDITARY INFORMATION

    must be indicated in the explanations following:

    • each amino acid is delivered to the ribosomes by one tRNA, therefore, the number of amino acids in a protein is equal to the number of tRNA molecules involved in protein synthesis;

      each amino acid is encoded by three nucleotides (one triplet, or codon), so the number of coding nucleotides is always three times greater, and the number of triplets (codons) is equal to the number of amino acids in the protein;

      each tRNA has an anticodon complementary to the mRNA codon, therefore the number of anticodons, and therefore the number of tRNA molecules in general, is equal to the number of mRNA codons;

      mRNA is complementary to one of the DNA strands, so the number of nucleotides in mRNA is equal to the number of nucleotides in DNA. The number of triplets, of course, will also be the same.

    Problem 1 . 75 tRNA molecules were involved in translation. Determine the number of amino acids that make up the protein being synthesized, as well as the number of triplets and nucleotides in the gene that encodes this protein.

    Solution .

      One tRNA molecule delivers one amino acid to the ribosome. 75 tRNA molecules were involved in translation, therefore, the synthesized protein includes 75 amino acids.

      Each amino acid is encoded by one DNA triplet, so the region of DNA encoding a given protein contains 75 triplets.

      Each triplet is three nucleotides, therefore, the indicated DNA section contains 75 x 3 = 225 nucleotides.

    Answer:75 amino acids, 75 DNA triplets, 225 DNA nucleotides.

    TASKS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF mRNA MOLECULES, tRNA ANTICODONS AND DETERMINATION OF AMINO ACIDS SEQUENCE IN PROTEINS

    When solving problems of this type, it is necessary to rememberNecessarily indicate in explanations following:

      mRNA nucleotides are complementary to DNA nucleotides;

      instead of thymine, uracil is written in all types of RNA;

      mRNA nucleotides are written in a row, without commas, since one molecule is meant;

      tRNA anticodons are written separated by commas, since each anticodon belongs to a separate tRNA molecule;

      we find amino acids using the genetic code table;

      if a table of the genetic code for mRNA is given, thenuse mRNA codons :

      amino acids in a protein are written with a hyphen, because it means that they have already combined and formed primary structure squirrel.

    Task 2. A fragment of a DNA chain has the sequence ACCGTTTGCCCAAT. Determine the nucleotide sequence of mRNA, tRNA anticodons and amino acid sequence in the synthesized protein.

    Solution.

    Task 3.

    What chromosome set is characteristic of the embryonic and endosperm cells of the seed and leaves? flowering plant. Explain the result in each case.
    Answer:

    1) in the cells of the seed embryo, the diploid set of chromosomes is 2n, since the embryo develops from a zygote - a fertilized egg;
    2) in the endosperm cells of the seed, the triploid set of chromosomes is 3n, as it is formed by the fusion of two nuclei of the central cell of the ovule (2n) and one sperm (n);
    3) the cells of the leaves of a flowering plant have a diploid set of chromosomes - 2n, since an adult plant develops from an embryo.

    The answer includes all the elements mentioned above and does not contain biological errors

    The answer includes 2 of the above elements and does not contain biological errors, OR the answer includes 3 of the above elements, but contains minor biological errors

    The answer includes 1 of the above elements and does not contain biological errors, OR the answer includes 2 of the above elements, but contains minor biological errors

    TASK No. 27 (C7)

    SOLVING PROBLEMS IN GENETICS FOR APPLYING KNOWLEDGE IN A NEW SITUATION

    The condition of genetic problems is often voluminous, therefore, first of all, the condition requires:

      highlight the features in question and introduce the appropriate designations;

      establish the type of crossing: monohybrid or dihybrid;

      establish the nature of inheritance: complete or incomplete dominance, autosomal or sex-linked, independent (in the case of a dihybrid cross) or linked;

      identify all “characters”, i.e. all individuals indicated in the condition (if there are large number for convenience, a genealogical chart can be drawn up for such individuals);

      establish the genotypes of the “characters” and, if necessary, indicate them in the appropriate diagram;

      highlight all the questions posed in the condition.

    After this, you can begin to directly solve the problem. To avoid unnecessary losses (meaning points), it is better to accompany all your actions with comments, especially if the problem says “Explain the solution.”

    Task. In a family where the parents have normal color vision, the son is color blind.

    The genes for normal color vision (D) and color blindness (d) are located on the X chromosome.

    Determine the genotypes of the parents, colorblind son, gender and the likelihood of having children who are carriers of the colorblind gene. Make a diagram for solving the problem.

    Explanation

    1) Genotypes of parents: mother – X DX d, father X DU;

    2) son’s genotype – colorblind – X dU;

    3) the probability of being born as carriers of the color blindness gene (X DX d) – 25%.

    The answer includes all the elements mentioned above and does not contain biological errors.

    The answer includes 1 of the above elements and does not contain biological errors, OR the answer includes 3 of the above elements, but contains minor biological errors.

    The answer includes 1 of the above elements and does not contain biological errors, OR the answer includes 2 of the above elements, but contains minor biological errors.

Where is biology useful?

Biology is taken at many universities:

  1. medical;
  2. biological universities;
  3. in pedagogy for the specialty “Teacher of Biology”;
  4. in agriculture;
  5. veterinary;
  6. at the Faculty of Physical Education;
  7. psychological;
  8. environmental;
  9. at the Faculty of Garden Design;
  10. on Faculty of Biology V technical universities, where biology is studied at the intersection with physics.

There are a lot of professions related to biology:

  • an engineer who models problems related to human life;
  • a doctor who will treat possible diseases in the future;
  • an ecologist who cares about the health of the entire country. The task of an ecologist is to create conditions in which humanity will drink clean water and breathe clean air;
  • psychologist;
  • athlete.

These are the people who make a person’s life more fulfilling and meaningful and, moreover, prolong this life.

Required documents

The FIPI website contains the following documents needed to prepare for the Unified State Exam in history:

  1. Specification (description of the work, lists the necessary documents, reflects the structure of the Unified State Examination in biology, provides a plan for the KIM version).
  2. Codifier (list of skills and topics that are tested on the Unified State Exam in biology).
  3. Demo version of the Unified State Exam in biology (one Unified State Exam option in biology), with which you need to start preparing for the state exam in history.

Features of the structure of the Unified State Exam in biology

Total 28 tasks
Part 1 Part 2
21 tasks with a short answer 7 tasks with a detailed answer

Time to complete all work is 3 hours 30 minutes (210 minutes).
The maximum primary score is 59.
The established minimum test score for the Unified State Exam in biology is 36 points.

How are the key tasks of part 1 of the work organized?

Task No. 1 first appeared in 2017. Each student, preparing for an exam, reads the text, underlines key words, then finds key words and connections between them. These connections make it possible to build dependency. Thus, the text is structured, it contains connections between concepts. This task presents a certain fragment from biology, where it is required to show these connections.

Task No. 3 is interesting because the usual simple tasks are introduced, where you need to solve a solution knowing biology:

  • count the number of chromosomes,
  • indicate the number of cells that are formed during various processes, etc.

Task No. 4 requires choosing two statements that correspond to the description of the object that is presented.
Assignment No. 6 on genetics. These are tasks for monohybrid crossing, where you need to write a specific number, the ratio of numbers.
Task No. 8 on the relationship between examples and phenomena. This is the first example of a task. An alternative example of this task is also offered, where a blind drawing is given (without captions), and you need to find the positions where there are numbers 1 and 2. And only after that, having decided on the position, select the correct answers.
In task No. 9, you should find examples from the proposed text that correspond to the concepts of “stability,” “microscopicity,” and “pathogenicity.”
Task No. 15 on knowledge of species properties. In biology, the concept of “species” is a key concept around which all biology is built. The text is given. It is necessary to select only those criteria that correspond to the task posed in the text.

Task No. 20. A new (since 2017), original task that makes it possible to test several very important, key concepts in biology using one example.

  • Example 1 tests understanding of speciation.

Example 2 involves filling out the empty columns in the table and finding some relationships between structure, object and function.

Task No. 21.

  • Example 1. The formation of natural science literacy and research skills is possible only when a person knows how to work with information presented in various types. In biology, for example, such information is a table where a scientist, making observations, records data, writes them down, carrying out some kind of calculation. The applicant needs to read what is noted here, just as a biologist reads it, who selects the key ones from a palisade of numbers and draws conclusions on this basis.
