Inheritance, Variation and Evolution flashcards
Every deck we have for Inheritance, Variation and Evolution, part of AQA GCSE Biology. 162 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.
Reproduction and Meiosis
26 cardsSexual and asexual reproduction and when each is an advantage, what meiosis does and how it differs from mitosis, and organisms that use both.
DNA, Genes and Protein Synthesis
26 cardsThe structure of DNA, the four bases and how they pair, transcription and translation, and what mutations do. Mostly Biology only content.
Genetic Inheritance and Punnett Squares
32 cardsAlleles, dominant and recessive, genotype and phenotype, working out crosses with Punnett squares and family trees, and how sex is determined.
Inherited Disorders and Screening
22 cardsPolydactyly and cystic fibrosis, how carriers pass conditions on, and the arguments for and against embryo screening.
Variation, Evolution and Natural Selection
30 cardsWhere variation comes from, Darwin and Wallace, speciation, evidence from fossils, extinction, and antibiotic resistant bacteria as evolution you can watch.
Selective Breeding, Genetic Engineering and Cloning
26 cardsHow selective breeding works and the problem with it, the stages of genetic engineering, tissue culture and cloning, and the arguments around GM crops.
