This is a fully-resourced lesson that covers the details of specification point 5.1.2 (e) of the OCR A-level Biology A specification which states that students should be able to demonstrate and apply an understanding of the effects of kidney failure and its potential treatments. This lesson consists of an engaging PowerPoint (55 slides) and associated differentiated worksheets that look at the diagnosis of a number of different kidney-related conditions and the potential treatments for kidney failure. This lesson is designed to get the students to take on the numerous roles of a doctor who works in the renal ward which include testing, diagnosis and treatment. Having obtained measurements by GFR and results by taking urine samples, hey are challenged to use their knowledge of the function of the kidney to study urine samples (and the accompanying GP’s notes) to diagnose one of four conditions. They then have to write a letter to the patient to explain how they made this diagnosis, again focusing on their knowledge of the structure and functions of the Bowman’s capsule and PCT. The rest of the lesson focuses on haemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and kidney transplant. There are regular progress checks throughout the lesson so that students can assess their understanding and there are a number of homework activities included in the lesson.

This lesson is designed for A-level students who are studying the OCR A-level Biology specification and ties in nicely with the other uploaded lessons on this organ which include the structure and function of the nephron, ultrafiltration, selective reabsorption and osmoregulation.

5.1.2: Excretion as an example of homeostatic control (OCR A-level biology)

All 9 lessons included in this bundle are filled with a variety of tasks to maintain engagement whilst covering the detailed content of module 5.1.2 of the OCR A-level biology specification. There are also multiple understanding checks and prior knowledge checks, with answers embedded into the PowerPoint, which allow the students to assess their progress against the current topic and test their ability to make links to previously covered content. This module titled "Excretion as an example of homeostatic control", considers the removal of the products of cell metabolism and explores the role of the liver, kidneys (and skin) in this process. The functions of the liver and structure of the kidney lessons have been uploaded for free, so you could download these first if you would like to view the quality of this bundle. The specification points not directly covered by the lessons in this bundle are: (b) (ii) [c) (ii) [c] (iii) (f)

Homeostasis, Excretion, Neuronal and Hormonal communication (OCR A-level Biology A)

This bundle of 20 lessons covers the majority of the content that's included in modules 5.1.1 - 5.1.4 of the OCR A-level Biology A specification. All of the lessons are highly detailed and have been planned at length to ensure that they are filled with a wide range of tasks to engage and motivate the students whilst checking on their understanding. The following specification points are covered by the lessons in this bundle: 5.1.1: Communication and homeostasis * The communication between cells by cell signalling * The principle of homeostasis * The physiological and behavioural responses involved in temperature control in endotherms and ectotherms 5.1.2: Excretion as an example of homeostatic control * The functions of the mammalian liver * The gross structure and histology of the kidney * The processes of ultrafiltration and selective reabsorption * The control of the water potential of the blood * The effects of kidney failure and its potential treatments 5.1.3: Neuronal communication * The roles of mammalian sensory receptors in converting stimuli into nerve impulses * The structure and functions of sensory, relay and motor neurones * The generation and transmission of nerve impulses in mammals * The structures and roles of synapses in transmission 5.1.4: Hormonal communication * Endocrine communication by hormones * The structure and functions of the adrenal glands * The structure of the pancreas * The regulation of blood glucose concentration * The difference between diabetes mellitus type I and II * The potential treatments for diabetes mellitus It is estimated that it will take in excess of 2 months of allocated A-level teaching time to cover the detail included in these lessons If you would like to sample the quality of the lessons in this bundle, then download the following lessons as they have been shared for free: * The principles of homeostasis * Temperature control in ectotherms * The functions of the liver * The structure of the kidney * The generation and transmission of nerve impulses * Endocrine communication
