This is a complete lesson covering sections 5.2.1 a, b and c of the OCR Biology specification- chloroplasts and chlorophyll. It starts by looking at the compensation point and offering students the chance to analyse some data. It then looks at chloroplasts and how they are adapted to their role before discussing the structure of chlorophyll. The lesson then looks at light absorption spectra and provides data for students to draw a graph of the absorption spectra for chlorophyll a and b. The lesson closes by looking at photosystems and introducing their role in the light dependent reaction.
The lesson does not cover chemiosmosis. I cover this during respiration. Please my other free resource: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12629704
The lesson includes a starter, full notes, various student led activities and a differentiated summary at the end.
All answers are included.
I actively try to reduce photocopying, so all of the lesson resources are within the PowerPoint rather than as extra sheets.

OCR Biology Energy for Biological processes
A set of six lessons covering the specification points from section 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 of the OCR Biology specification- Photosynthesis and Respiration. It covers: Chloroplasts and Chlorophyll Chemiosmsosis The light and dark reactions Factors affecting the rate of photosynthesis the link recation Krebs cycle oxidative phosphorylation anaerobic respiration All answers provided
OCR Biology Photosynthesis trilogy
This is a bundle of three lessons covering all the specification points from section 5.2.1 of the OCR A level Biology A specification- Photosynthesis. It covers: 1) The importance of energy in living things 2) The links between photosynthesis and respiration 3) Structure and function of chloroplast 4) Structure and function of chlorophyll 5) Chromatography of Chlorophyll 6) Photophosphorylation and the Z scheme 7) The light dependent reaction 8) The light independent reaction 9) Factors affecting Photosynthesis 10) CAM and C4 plants In line with the specification I teach chemiosmosis alongside respiration. To include with this topic instead please see my free resource: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12629704 All lessons include lots of independent activities and are designed to minimise photocopying
