This is a revision power point to be used when revising the content of AQA Biology paper 2 - it covers the key areas of the trilogy/combined course. The activities/questions/information slides covering the areas of paper 2 that tend to be most difficult for students and could be used over a number of revision lessons to prepare your students for their exams. The power point includes: An overview of all topics on paper 2 biology Recap of the required practical activities Slides to recap the importance of data and how to ensure data is reliable, reproducible and repeatable Information slides to quickly recap areas of paper 2 Differentiated activities that ask students to apply their knowledge of the different topics. More difficult questions are there to ask students to apply their knowledge to unfamiliar situations. Stretch activities for the more able. One mark questions to quickly recap topics and establish what topics need to be revisited more thoroughly than others. The topic areas that are covered on this revision power point are : The nervous system Hormones negative feedback Menstrual cycle treating infertility contraception meiosis DNA Inheritance Genetic cross Variation The human genome project Classification selective breeding genetic modification Ecology
