This bundle contains 7 lessons which are highly detailed and cover the following points in the surface area to volume ratio, gas exchange and digestion and absorption topics of the AQA A-level Biology specification:

  • The relationship between the size of an organism or structure and its surface area to volume ratio
  • The development of systems in larger organisms as adaptations that facilitate exchange as this ratio reduces
  • Adaptations of gas exchange surfaces in single-celled organisms, insects, bony fish and in the leaf of a dicotyledonous plant
  • The gross structure of the human gas exchange system
  • The essential features of the alveolar epithelium over which gas exchange takes place
  • Ventilation and the exchange of gases in the lungs
  • Digestion in mammals of carbohydrates, proteins and lipids
  • Mechanisms for the absorption of the products of digestion by cells lining the ileum
