Infection and Response flashcards
Every deck we have for Infection and Response, part of AQA GCSE Biology. 126 questions written against the published specification, free to study with no account. Each deck schedules its own reviews, so cards you find hard come back sooner than ones you have already got right.
Pathogens and Communicable Disease
32 cardsViruses, bacteria, protists and fungi, how they spread and how spread is reduced, plus the specific diseases named in the specification: measles, HIV, TMV, salmonella, gonorrhoea, rose black spot and malaria.
Human Defences and Vaccination
26 cardsThe body's non-specific barriers, what white blood cells actually do, and how vaccination produces immunity without causing the disease.
Antibiotics, Painkillers and New Drugs
28 cardsWhy antibiotics do not work on viruses, how resistance develops, where digitalis, aspirin and penicillin came from, and how a new drug is tested before anyone can take it.
Plant Disease and Defences
20 cardsDetecting and identifying plant disease, ion deficiencies, and the physical, chemical and mechanical defences plants use. Biology only content.
Monoclonal Antibodies
20 cardsHow monoclonal antibodies are produced from hybridoma cells, and their uses in pregnancy tests, diagnosis and treatment. Biology only content.
