I think you'd be much better off asking the lecturer who set the question, than asking here. What each lecuturer expects as an answer is going to differ greatly, so only your lecturer will know what is considered a full answer.

If its for an assignment, and you show that you have put work into the answer then they are generally happy to give you advice as to whether you need to put in more or not. They won't tell you what to put in, mind!

Thanks WeeBushy,

yes I did, his answer was: (I would expect a more innovative application of knowledge with critical analysis and/or justifications)

as you see his answer based on expectaion & as student i should respond clearly to Qs in the papers not predict lecturer expectaions!..think am right!

for now i would appreciate any more advices

By the sound of it you will probably have to expand on your answer. Can you split the process into stages and just describe each stage in word format under the diagram?

Sounds like an Engineering question.

If I was asked that, I'd draw what was required and then explain with reference to the drawing. They generally ask you to draw something to compliment what you write down. i.e. Anyone could memorize a graph or a drawing, but they test your understanding by seeing what you write about it.

It wouldn't be enough to just draw the sketch as it asked to "Sketch out and describe" which basically means write a paragraph or so (Depending on the question)
