AQA spec link: 6.1.4
Relevant chapter: B13 Genetics and reproduction. AQA Biology third edition textbook-Page 202-203.
Specification requires students to know the following;
Students should be able to describe the structure of DNA and define genome. The genetic material in the nucleus of a cell is composed of a chemical called DNA. DNA is a polymer made up of two strands forming a double helix. The DNA is contained in structures called chromosomes.
A gene is a small section of DNA on a chromosome. Each gene codes for a particular sequence of amino acids, to make a specific protein. The genome of an organism is the entire genetic material of that organism. The whole human genome has now been studied and this will have great importance for medicine in the future.
Students should be able to discuss the importance of understanding the human genome.
This is limited to the:
• search for genes linked to different types of disease
• understanding and treatment of inherited disorders
• use in tracing human migration patterns from the past.

AQA new specification-B13 Reproduction bundle-Biology/separate science
Due to popular demand I have uploaded a B13 bundle. This bundle contains the content for BIOLOGY/SEPARATE science students. It includes all the resources you need to teach the B13 Reproduction topic. If you're teaching this topic (B12) to combined science students I've uploaded a separate bundle for it. Lessons have been done in accordance to the specification requirements. Videos embedded for ease of use, paper friendly resources attached. Search the individual lessons for more information on the lesson content. Save 42% by purchasing this bundle. Higher topics included. Total 11 lessons + Past paper question pack on mitosis and meiosis. L1 = types of reproduction L2 = cell division and sexual reproduction L3 = the best of both worlds L4 = DNA and the genome L5a = DNA structure L5b = protein synthesis L6 = gene expression and mutation L7 = inheritance in Action L8 = more about genetics L9 = inherited disorders L10 = screening for genetic disorders

great resource but similar to other review the video links dont work and i have just paid £25 for this resource. please help
This looks great but the video links don't work which is an issue after I have paid ..
