This is a fully-resourced and engaging REVISION LESSON which challenges the students on their knowledge and understanding of the topic 2 content (Biological molecules) of the CIE International A-level Biology specification. This topic isn’t always well understood by students so the lesson has been designed to include a wide range of activities that include differentiated exam questions, quick tasks and quiz competitions which will engage the students whilst they assess their progress. It has been designed to cover as much of the specification as possible but the following sub-topics have received particular attention:
- Formation of polysaccharides by glycosidic bonds between monomers
- Recognising monosaccharides, disaccharides and polysaccharides
- The structure of starch and glycogen in relation to their function as stores and providers of energy
- Water as a solvent with a high specific heat capacity and a high specific latent heat of vaporisation
- Structure and bonding in proteins
- The structure of globular and fibrous proteins as demonstrated by haemoglobin and collagen
- The structure and function of cellulose
Links are made to other topics so that students are able to see how questions can include parts from different Biological concepts.

Another excellent resource to keep my year 12's engage with online lessons. Thanks.
Really engaging lesson with my Y12s. Helped highlight the areas they have struggled with before our assessment and some good stuff on mono/di/polysaccharides.
