"Did you know the human body is made up of trillions of cells? The study of Biology will give you an insight into the makeup of living organisms. You will explore ecology, human health, disease and genetics and apply your knowledge in practical work. The study of life itself, A Level Biology explores the theories and principles involved in living systems, in all their intricate beauty. Topics you will learn about include: lifestyle, transport, genes and health, development, plants and the environment, the natural environment and species survival, energy, exercise and co-ordination, as well as practical biology and research skills. By the end of the course you will know about the principles of genetics, molecules, taxonomy, natural selection, evolutionary theory, global warming, bacteria and viruses, and more. KEY TOPICS Lifestyle-related risks to health Genetic disease The genome Plants and biodiversity Environment and survival Energy, exercise and co-ordination YOU WILL Undertake practical laboratory work including using a high-powered microscope Visit conferences, museums and scientific organisations Attend field trips to study different ecosystems"
"A minimum of 5 GCSEs (average score of 6) These must include: English Language at grade 6 Maths at grade 6 Biology or Combined Science at grade 6 or 66 "
