A revision poster that includes material needed for section 7 of the edexcel iGCSE combined science double award biology. Section 7 - Reproduction and inheritance
There are two separate posters attached here. The first of which covers:
Punnett squares,
Mitosis,
meiosis,
Plant pollination,
Germination,
Practical investigating germination,
Flowering plants,
Family trees.
The second poster contains more sensitive material which you might want to consider setting as homework instead of covering in class. The poster contains:
Human reproductive systems,
Menstrual cycle,
Foetal development,
Secondary sexual characterstics,
The role of Oestrogen and progesterone,
Variation,
Natural selection and evolution.
A blank copy for students to fill in is also included for students to test their knowledge.
