Nutrient cycles (5.4 AQA A-level biology)

Topic 5.4 of the AQA A-level biology specification is titled Nutrient cycles, and students are expected to understand how nutrients are recycled within ecosystems, as exemplified by the nitrogen and phosphorus cycle, and be able to describe environmental issues that arise when fertilisers leach into waterways.

These 3 lessons have been planned at length to ensure they cover all the detailed content in the specification and also contain prior knowledge checks and links to the future so students understand how this topic links with parts of topics 1 - 4 and 6 - 8.
