**A Helpful Resource for Teaching Cell Structure in IB DP Biology **

This resource covers the Cell Structure (A22) topic from the IB Diploma Programme Biology course. It is designed for dual use: as supplemental teaching notes for instructors and as complete revision material for students.

What Makes This Resource Useful for Biology Teachers

Follows the Subject Guide Directly
The content is structured in full alignment with the IB Biology subject guide, ensuring that all required assessment statements related to cell ultrastructure, organelles and their functions, membrane structure, and microscopy are addressed in sequence. Teachers can follow a clear progression from prokaryotic vs eukaryotic organisation to detailed organelle roles, ensuring full syllabus coverage.

Helpful for New Teachers
This resource provides a clear and practical overview of cell structure and function. It explains the architecture of major organelles, the fluid-mosaic model of membranes, surface area:volume relationships, and the use of microscopy to visualise cellular components. Each section includes clear explanations, labelled diagrams, experimental examples, and discussion prompts to make lessons engaging and easy to teach.

Designed for Dual Use
The resource functions both as a teacher’s guide for lesson delivery and a student revision tool. The level of detail is concise enough for independent review while remaining sufficiently thorough for assessment preparation.

Editable PowerPoint Version Included
Alongside the printable PDF, an editable PowerPoint presentation is included. Teachers can adapt slides, add media, or adjust content to suit different teaching styles and digital learning environments.

Content Included

Comparison of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

Detailed organelle structure and functions

Plasma membrane structure and transport mechanisms

Fluid-mosaic model and membrane dynamics

Surface area:volume ratio and its biological importance

Microscopy techniques and resolution

Electron vs light microscopes

Key labelled diagrams

Practice prompts and example questions

The resource includes visuals, diagrams, and data-based practice questions that connect structural theory to biological function. Higher Level content, such as ultrastructure detail and membrane dynamics, is clearly indicated throughout.

This is a clear, accessible resource that supports both effective teaching and confident student revision for IB Biology assessments.

IB DP Biology Teaching Notes & Revision Bundle (Topics A1.1–C1.1) 2026

A Helpful Bundle for Teaching and Revising Topics A1.1 to C1.1 of IB DP Biology Save £9.98 This bundle includes the first 20 topics from the IB Diploma Programme Biology course, covering both Standard Level and Higher Level (HL) content. It is designed for dual use: as supplemental companion notes for instructors and as structured revision material for students. What Makes This Bundle Useful for Biology Teachers Follows the Subject Guide Directly All topics are organised in full alignment with the IB Biology subject guide, ensuring complete coverage of required assessment statements across the core and HL components. The sequence allows teachers to plan lessons that build logically from molecular biology and cell structure through genetics, ecology, evolution, and physiology. Helpful for New Teachers This bundle provides a strong foundation for teaching IB Biology. Each topic includes clear, ready-to-teach notes supported by diagrams, molecular models, worked examples, and applied biological contexts that make complex biochemical and physiological ideas easier to teach and explain. Clear Support for End-of-Year Revision This bundle is excellent for end-of-year revision sessions, bringing together key concepts, terminology, processes, and diagrams that students must consolidate before assessments. The consistent structure across topics makes it ideal for revision lessons, review workshops, and exam preparation weeks. Designed for Dual Use Teachers can use the resources as structured lesson guides, while students can rely on the explanations, visuals, and applied examples for independent study and exam preparation. **Please Note: This is Part 1 of a 2-part bundle. Part 2 of the Teaching Notes bundle is available separately.** Topics Included A1.1 Water A1.2 Nucleic Acids A2.1 Origin of Cells A2.2 Cell Structure A2.3 Viruses A3.1 Diversity of Organisms A3.2 Classification and Cladistics A4.1 Evolution and Speciation A4.2 Conservation of Biodiversity B1.1 Carbohydrates and Lipids B1.2 Proteins B2.1 Membranes and Membrane Transport B2.2 Organelles and Compartmentalisation B2.3 Cell Specialisation B3.1 Gas Exchange B3.2 Transport B3.3 Muscle and Motility B4.1 Adaptation to Environment B4.2 Ecological Niches C1.1 Enzymes and Metabolism This bundle includes over 700 cards of curriculum-aligned material featuring diagrams, molecular models, data visuals, laboratory investigations, and concise explanations that consistently link biological theory to real-world processes. Higher Level content is clearly identified and integrated throughout. This is a comprehensive yet balanced teaching and revision package, suitable for guiding instruction across a large portion of the two-year IB Biology course and supporting confident, independent student revision.
