Based on 2015 and onwards AQA A-level -Describe and explain how an action potential passes along an unmyelinated neurone. -Describe and explain how an action potential passes along an myelinated neurone.

This lesson introduces students to the structure, function, and biological importance of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), aligning with the AQA A-level Biology specification on Biological Molecules. The lesson covers the following key areas: What ATP is: Students will learn what ATP is and why it’s considered the cell’s immediate energy source. Structure of ATP: Students will explore the structure of ATP, including its components (adenine, ribose, and three phosphate groups). ATP Hydrolysis and Synthesis: The lesson explains how ATP is hydrolyzed to release energy (ATP → ADP + Pi) and how it is synthesized through processes such as oxidative phosphorylation, photophosphorylation, and substrate-level phosphorylation. Role of ATP in Cellular Processes: Students will understand how ATP is used in metabolic reactions, active transport, muscle contraction, and the synthesis of macromolecules.
