This double-sided worksheet consists of 8 comprehension and recall questions, some of them multi-part, targeted at the knowledge and understanding required of AQA A level students. Questions range through: Types of muscle and their properties; Gross overview of muscle structure; Antagonistic Muscle pairs; Structure and function of myosin and actin filaments; With full markscheme it can be used by yourself to assess students or can be peer/self assessed with the markscheme projected on the board, allowing quick afl in your lesson. It can also be used as a revision resource to check recall. It ties in perfectly with my Muscles PowerPoint and Sliding Filament Theory cut and stick activities also available on here/from my shop and also as part of my Muscles A-level lessons bundle (link below).

This single sided sheet examines the structure of the sarcomere and challenges students to apply newly acquired knowledge in a straightforward manner encouraging future recall. A full markscheme is included. Do note, this sheet complements my other muscle resources, available through my shop.

A double sided worksheet looking at the nervous system and its role in homeostasis with a worked example in the form of thermoregulation. Questions are short answer, complete the diagram or matching so the sheet is suitable for most ability levels as a summary activity. A full markscheme is included

This PowerPoint is a step-by-step, annotated accounting of the working of the sodium potassium pump. Simple animations show the interactions of pump, ATP, ADP, sodium ions and potassium ions. Also included is a scaffolded notesheet including part-drawn diagrams that students can quickly complete as they learn about the process. Please note: The preview thumbnails have unfortunately created some graphical glitches/artefacts that don’t appear in the actual slides.

This sheet and PowerPoint introduce family trees and reinforces work on monohybrid inheritance and punnet squares. The sheet includes interpretation and completion of a family tree alongside some punnet squares and reasoning questions. The Powerpoint of only 4 slides acts as an initial stimulus but also shows the solution to the family tree.

This worksheet includes a colour in key and complete the diagram task alongside a number of short answer questions. A PowerPoint mark scheme is also included.

This resource serves as an excellent summary of how ADH is used to regulate water reabsorption in the kidneys. Included is the template sheet, a sheet of 2 tile-sets to be cut out and a PowerPoint markscheme that can be projected and used to add tiles one at a time as a stimulus. The sheet includes the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, the action of ADH at the kidney and how this affects reabsorption in the collecting duct. Works equally well as an accompaniment to my PowerPoint on the Kidneys or as a stand-alone activity.

This double sided worksheet serves as a summary of the main points of the Nitrogen cycle as covered at A-level and creates a useful revision resource when completed. The fist question involves a short sequencing/cut and stick activity to create an overview diagram of the cycle with the following questions testing students understanding of the processes it shows. Later questions tackle leguminous plants and eutrophication as well as how carnivorous plants use alternate strategies to harness nitrogen. Also included is a full markscheme that can be printed for traditional teacher assessment or projected for peer to peer or self assessment, introducing each answer with a click of the mouse.

This sheet forms a summary of the action of ADH and how it affects water reabsorption in the kidneys. The finished diagram excellently serves to illustrate osmoregulation as part of a negative feedback system.

This double-sided worksheet consists of 9 comprehension and recall questions targeted at the knowledge and understanding required of AQA A level students. With full markscheme it can be used by yourself to assess students or can be peer/self assessed with the markscheme projected on the board, allowing quick afl in your lesson. It can also be used as a revision resource to check recall. It ties in perfectly with my Glucose regulation cut and stick activity also available on here/from my shop.

2 Resources Included: 1.) Reflection practical worksheet - looking at specular and diffuse reflection. A more open-ended extension activity for more able students forms the final task and allows further experimentation - with curved mirrors for example. 2.) A consolidation or homework task that puts the emphasis on the correct drawing of ray diagrams.

A double-sided worksheet (with markscheme). The worksheet requires students to work out the efficiency of energy transfers at different trophic levels and consider these in a real world context. Questions examine where energy is lost at each stage and also begins to link this to the sustainability of food production.

This PowerPoint of 8 slides outlines the structure of the chloroplast and examines the smaller structures within. The accompanying work/note-sheet allows students to record the information in a visually engaging way. This is aimed at A-level students (16 to 18 years old) and would serve as an excellent activity as part of an introduction to photosynthesis or in partnership with a chlorophyll chromatography practical activity.

This double sided sheet can be printed at A4 but works better as an A3 resource. This sheet covers the key areas of receptor function in creating a generator potential (specifically the Eye and Pacinian corpuscle), Resting Potential and the propagation of an Action Potential. Please note this sheet is part 1 of 2 and, when coupled with Sheet 2, a more comprehensive coverage of the necessary nervous control aspects will result. Individual sections contain marking points/scores so as to allow easy feedback and AFL with the included full mark scheme. This gives you flexibility as to how you use the resource and opens up peer assessment/self assessment opportunities.

This double sided worksheet examines the process of negative feedback as it pertains to Thermoregulation of the body. Physiological responses to temperature change are included in the questioning and linked to the process of negative feedback. The last few questions then begin to ask students to consider the implications of positive feedback as a shift further and further away from the ‘normal’.

These two sheets - one with blanks for students to fill in, the other complete but with space for annotation - are best printed at A3 size and summarise cellular respiration in a clear diagrammatic flow diagram. Students follow the progression of glucose through the entire of cellular respiration. The sheet summarises Glycolysis, Link Reaction, Kreb’s Cycle, the electron transport chain and also anaerobic respiration whilst clearly linking these together in one continuous inter-linked diagram.

The resource consists of a 16 slide PowerPoint, a short summary worksheet, and practical task worksheet. The PowerPoint details learning objectives and a starter/stimulus activity for students before diverging into four separate sections which can be navigated from the central menu. The four sections deal with: Explaining Refraction; Ray Diagrams; Lenses; and Refraction in real life. Each section consists of animated slides and diagrams which help explain all the necessary content with a few optional extras for those more capable classes. The summary sheet should serve to help students reflect on and revise the taught concepts and ties in with the PowerPoint. The Practical Worksheet talks students through a series of experiments using rayboxes and prisms/lenses (Specifically rectangular prisms and converse lens prisms - though an extension activity allows for further experimentation) and has an open-ended extension activity for more able students.

This worksheets consists of 2 sides: The First depicts the Carbon Cycle in diagrammatic form for students to complete either as a summary exercise/recap/or from another source (such as a textbook). The second side consists of a series of questions on the carbon cycle with each questions suggested mark value included.
