National Exams May 2016 — 04-Bio-B7, 3 hours, closed book (one aid sheet allowed, written on both sides; approved Casio/Sharp calculator only). Six questions are printed; the first five as they appear in the answer book constitute a complete exam paper (all six are answered here as a complete study resource). Each question is of equal value; some require an essay-format answer.

This solution follows the paper's true subject and cites robotics/manufacturing references accordingly.
