Course Content — AS Level • Cell structure • Biological molecules • Nucleotides and nucleic acids Enzymes • Biological membranes • Cell division, cell diversity and cellular organisation • Exchange surfaces • Transport in animals • Transport in plants • Communicable diseases, disease prevention and the immune system • Biodiversity • Classification and evolution Course Content — A2 Level • Communication and homeostasis Excretion as an example of homeostatic control • Neuronal communication • Hormonal communication • Plant and animal responses Photosynthesis • Respiration • Cellular control • Patterns of inheritance • Manipulating genomes • Cloning and biotechnology Ecosystems • Populations and sustainability Where can A Level Biology A take me? • A Level Biology A is an excellent base for a university degree in healthcare, such as medicine, veterinary or dentistry, as well as the biological sciences, such as biochemistry, molecular biology or forensic science. Biology can also complement sports science, psychology, sociology and many more. • A Level Biology A can open up a range of career opportunities including: biological research, medical, environmental, forensics, sports and science communication. The transferable skills you will learn, such as problem solving, are also useful for many other areas, such as law
