OCR Biology Chlorophyll and Chloroplasts

(0)
This is a complete lesson covering sections 5.2.1 a, b and c of the OCR Biology specification- chloroplasts and chlorophyll. It starts by looking at the compensation point and offering students the chance to analyse some data. It then looks at chloroplasts and how they are adapted to their role before discussing the structure of chlorophyll. The lesson then looks at light absorption spectra and provides data for students to draw a graph of the absorption spectra for chlorophyll a and b. The lesson closes by looking at photosystems and introducing their role in the light dependent reaction. The lesson does not cover chemiosmosis. I cover this during respiration. Please my other free resource: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12629704 The lesson includes a starter, full notes, various student led activities and a differentiated summary at the end. All answers are included. I actively try to reduce photocopying, so all of the lesson resources are within the PowerPoint rather than as extra sheets.
