A Level Biology Maths Skills - Logarithms, Log graphs and exponential increases worksheet
4 sides and all answers included.
The Worksheet gives brief summaries of the skills involved in working with factors of 10 and logarithms, as well us using 2 to the power functions for calculating the exponential increase of cell populations.
2 pages focus on dealing with log scales on graphs.
My students have found these particularly useful, and these are definitiely an area for marginal gains with the examboard. The logarithmic question for AQA 2023 paper 3 was poorly answered with 17% of candidates not even attempting the question. The log graph question in 2023 paper 1 saw only 7% of students achieve 2 marks.
INCLUDES A FREE END OF YEAR 1 AS QUIZ!!!
