A/AS Level Biology Food & Chemical Tests Crib Sheet

An exceptional-quality crib sheet of clear, easy to understand notes on A Level Biology (the Biological Molecules topic, included in AS Level) in accordance with the AQA Biology syllabus. The resource may also be suitable for other exam boards such as Edexcel and OCR.
The resource includes essential content from the A Level course, laid out in an intelligible and straightforward manner.
I often found the A Level textbooks to be overwhelming and visually intense, so the resource was created to combat this.

The fact sheet includes the tests for…

• Reducing sugars
• Non-reducing sugars
• Starch
• Lipids
• Proteins

…under the following headings:

• Test subject
• Test name
• Background info
• Step-by-step method
• Results

Key Terms:
