This set of study notes covers the topics of genetics, populations, evolution, and ecosystems in A-Level Biology. The section on inheritance covers Mendel's laws of inheritance and how they apply to the passing of genetic traits from one generation to the next. The section on populations discusses the definition of a population, factors affecting population growth and dynamics, and population genetics and genetic drift. The section on evolution and speciation defines evolution and natural selec...

These are detailed Revision Notes for Topic 6.1.2 of OCR A-Level Biology (Patterns of Inheritance and Variation). They were written by me using a combination of the textbook and class notes. I will also be uploading the other topics and creating bundles. Topics Included: - Variation and inheritance - Monogenetic inheritance - Dihybrid inheritance - Phenotypic ratio - Evolution - Speciation and natural selection

IB BIOLOGY UNIT 5 Evidence for Evolution SUMMARY NOTES 5.1 Evidence for Evolution Saturday, 3 October 2015 4:00 PM U1. Evolution occurs when heritable characteristics of a species change. There is strong evidence for characteristics of species changing over time, biologists call this evolution. - Acquired characteristics that develop during the lifetime of individual - Heritable characteristics passed from parent to off-spring. - Evolution involves heritable characteristics through natur...

Detailed A* level notes covering the whole topic of Patterns of Inheritance (specification point 6.1.2). This is for the OCR A level Biology A course. These notes cover every single specification point within this topic and are concise but contain everything you need to know. I achieved an A* with these notes and am now a medical student. Topics covered: - variation and inheritance - monogenic inheritance - dihybrid inheritance - linkage and epistasis - evolution - speciation
