The course will include advanced physiology, evolution and ecology. Within this, the topics covered include biological molecules, cells, viruses and reproduction of living things, classification and biodiversity, exchange and transport, origins of genetic variation, control systems and ecosystems. Finally, there will also be an exploration of general and practical principles in biology. Some of the examinations will assess student’s knowledge and understanding of practical skills and techniques. Progression opportunities: Studying A-Level Biology will give you many opportunities to work within the following fields: Veterinary Science, Medicine, Optometry, Psychology, Nursing, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Sports Science, Microbiology, Forensic Science, Biophysics, Genetics, Neuroscience, Botany, Zoology, Ecology and Environmental Science.
