The paper covers the following specification points: • Topic 1b - Movement and position (including practical 1.5) (1.3 – 1.10) • Topic 2c - Energy and voltage in circuits (2.7 – 2.21) • Topic 3b - Properties of waves (3.2 – 3.9) • Topic 4b - Energy transfers (4.2 – 4.10) • Topic 5b - Density and pressure (5.3 – 5.7) • Topic 7b - Radioactivity (7.2 – 7.15) • Topic 8b - Motion in the universe (8.2 – 8.6) Disclaimer: This document was created by department heads with many years of experience teaching the Pearson Edexcel IGCSE Science course. We cannot however guarantee that it is an accurate representation of upcoming examinations and students should not treat it as such. Please use this as an aid, alongside other methods of revision.

Edexcel IGCSE Biology Lecture 47 - Mutations

(0)
Powerpoint lecture covering the following in a modern, concise format: Specification Point 3.35B - Understand how a change in DNA can affect the phenotype by altering the sequence of amino acids in a protein. Specification Point 3.36B - Understand how most genetic mutations have no effect on the phenotype, some have a small effect and rarely do they have a significant effect. Specification Point 3.37B - Understand that the incidence of mutations can be increased by exposure to ionising radiation (for example, gamma rays, x-rays and ultraviolet rays) and some chemical mutagens (for example, chemicals in tobacco). Complete set of Chapter 5 Lectures are available.

Edexcel IGCSE Biology Worksheet 37 - Reproduction in Plants

(1)
Companion PDF worksheet for Edexcel IGCSE Biology Lecture 37 - Reproduction in Plants. Contains short answer questions, an activity requiring lateral thinking and exam-style questions. Specification Point 3.3 - Describe the structures of an insect-pollinated and a wind-pollinated flower and explain how each is adapted for pollination. Specification Point 3.4 - Understand that the growth of the pollen tube followed by fertilisation leads to seed and fruit formation. Specification Point 3.5 - Practical: investigate the conditions needed for seed germination. Specification Point 3.6 - Understand how germinating seeds utilise food reserves until the seedling can carry out photosynthesis. Specification Point 3.7 - Understand that plants can reproduce asexually by natural methods (illustrated by runners) and by artificial methods (illustrated by cuttings). Complete set of Chapter 5 Worksheets are available.
