This Booklet covering the main four structures and levels of proteins from the primary level with Amino acids structure and properties to the Quaternary level with Collagen and Heamoglobin

A full booklet to teach the difficult topic of the Kidneys osmoregulation

This revision booklet goes through the key aspects of the Neuromuscular junction key part of animal responses for OCR A level Biology. The booklet includes: Photomicrograph of the junction Key structures such as the sarcoplasmic reticulum The sequence of events at the Neuromuscular junction How a nerve impulse causes a muscle contraction compare and contrasting the neuromuscular junction and synapses

This introduction to Biological molecules looks at the key chemical groups found in living molecules a long with the basic summary of all the key Biological molecules found in living organisms

The booklet covers the difficult concept of how haemoglobin transports oxygen around the body and how the haemoglobin undergoes configurational change so that it bonds oxygen more easily after the first oxygen has joined. The booklet then introduces Oxygen dissociation curves why they are sigmoid shape and how they are made including what the partial pressures means in terms of tissues in the body. There are various amount of tasks in the booklet students are challenged to make a dissociation curve with some data and need to answer some key questions on what is happening at different parts of the graph in relation to partial pressure and haemoglobin shape. The booklet then compares haemoglobin with both myglobin the oxygen storage molecule found in muscles and foetal haemoglobin. Both have questions on what these molecules do and where they are situated on the oxygen dissociation curve graph in relation to adult haemoglobin. The booklet then introduces carbon dioxide transport in great detail and the three main methods it is transported in the blood. The booklet then finishes on the Bohr effect and how carbon dioxide affects the oxygen dissociation curve and what happens when different carbon dioxide concentrations affect haemogobin loading and unloading.

This resource has everything needed to teach and learn about the heart at OCR A level. The booklet starts at the basic structure of the heart and the main structures of heart anatomy both internal and external. The Structure is explained using a simple gap fill activity to allow students to learn and complete the first page of the booklet. The next is labeling the external and internal structures to allow students to orientate themselves. The next part of the booklet explains the key stages in the cardiac cycle using a simple gap fill and then goes on to explain the cardiac cycle graph with clear labels of what is happening the pressure changes in the atria and ventricles. The next part of the booklet explains the initiation of the cardiac cycle how the cardiac cells are myogenic and how the natural pacemaker SAN node triggers a wave of excitation over the atria and how the AVN node triggers ventricular contraction. The last part of the booklet explains ECG graphs and what each part does and how to recognise abnormal ECG traces.

This is a A level Biology OCR Genetic Engineering Booklet that will last the whole lesson. It covers : The basic process of Genetic Engineering Methods how the gene is obtained Restriction enzymes and their Recognition sites Vectors used to get the genetic material into the desired cell

This Resource will last for a 1 hour lesson and pupils will need to fill in the Booklet. The Booklet covers the key principles of Homeostasis and Communication that are learned at GCSE and it build on them to stretch and challenge pupils

The resource is for pupils undertaking GCSE Science/ Biology and the topic of Monoclonal Antibodies how they are made and their uses. It consists of a starter and main activity that is called 7 monkeys ( This is a teaching and learning activity that really helps pupils remember a hard and difficult topic of Biology) Pupils will be given paper and the teacher will talk them through the process of making monoclonal Antibodies. This will be learned through pupils making their own diagrams and drawings to the sequence Two previous pupils drawing are attached to help for SEN pupils

This resource booklet explores the Biological importance of water to life and how the key biochemical properties of water enable life to exist on our planet.

This extremely challenging content is easily explained in the OCR Biology A level Sliding Filament Theory Booklet It includes : Skeletal muscle Histology The structure of the myofibril The structure of a sarcomere How the muscle contracts -sliding filament theory How contractions change the pattern of banding Maintenance of ATP
