40 marks of exam-style questions covering the A-level Biology topic of meiosis.
Written for the AQA specification, but the majority of the questions are relevant to all exam boards. Non-disjunction has intentionally been set as the last question, allowing it to be easily removed for those exam boards which don’t include this sub-topic.
Questions have been designed with the intention of covering as many permutations as possible with regards to meiosis exam questions, but without repetition.
Useful as a homework / self-assessment / revision task before an end-of-topic test.
Includes full mark scheme.

Meiosis A-level Biology Task Bundle
Test your student's knowledge of meiosis with these 3 engaging tasks. What does this bundle include? 1. Exam-style question worksheet/assessment with full mark scheme (40 marks total) 2. Active-recall flashcards (includes blank version for students to complete the answers themselves, & a completed version to print & laminate for a classroom revision activity). 3. A foldable meiosis worksheet summarising the key events of meiosis (2 versions included - one with all the separate stages for OCR & another version that just summarises the key events for AQA).
Meiosis AS A-level Biology Summary Worksheet and Exam Style Questions Bundle
Meiosis summary worksheets for AS / A-level Biology (process has been simplified to include only two pairs of homologous chromosomes): Students can cut out each worksheet around the dotted edge and glue/tape the sheets together to produce a large summary sheet covering the entire process of meiosis. PDF includes two versions: 3 page version which includes details on individual stages of Meiosis I and II. 2 page version (more suitable for AQA) that provides an overview of Meiosis I and II and does not go into details regarding the individual stages. I have included diagrams representing the chromosomal content of cells during interphase (both prior to, and after DNA replication). I have drawn the chromosomes in interphase in the same way as the chromosomes during the meiosis (even though in interphase, the chromosomes have not yet condensed), this is just so students can clearly see what is happening to the number of chromosome. Both versions are designed for students to colour the chromosomes to represent maternal and paternal chromosomes (and also the results of crossing-over). Versions with completed text are included, if you are short of time and would like to provide the sheets as handouts instead. However, please note, students would still need to colour the chromosomes to represent the maternal/paternal chromosomes and the outcome of crossing-over. An example of completed colouring is included on the last page of the PDF. Exam style question worksheet: 36 marks of exam-style questions covering the A-level Biology topic of meiosis.
