Life cycle assessment revision
Made for the Edexcel specification.
However the overlap to AQA is essentially the same
Contents: basic explanation and PEQs, both from edexcel and AQA for quantity
Evaluate the advantages of recycling metals, including economic implications and how recycling can preserve both the environment and the supply of valuable raw materials [4.10]
Describe that a life-cycle assessment for a product involves consideration of the effect on the environment of obtaining the raw materials, manufacturing the product, using the product and disposing of the product when it is no longer useful [4.11]
Evaluate data from a life cycle assessment of a product [4.12]
Edexcel - Light and the electromagnetic spectrum
This lesson is made for the following specification for revision purposes.
Recall that all electromagnetic waves are transverse, that they travel at the same speed in a vacuum [5.7]
Explain, with examples, that all electromagnetic waves transfer energy from source to observer [5.8]
Recall the main groupings of the continuous electromagnetic spectrum [5.10-5.12]
Recall that the potential danger associated with an electromagnetic wave increases with increasing frequency [5.20]
Describe the harmful effects on people of excessive exposure to electromagnetic radiation [5.21]
Describe uses of the electromagnetic radiation [5.22]
Evolution - Edexcel
Spec included:
Explain Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection [4.2]
Explain how the emergence of resistant organisms supports Darwin’s theory of evolution including antibiotic resistance in bacteria [4.3]
