About this ebook
Based on the 2014 DP Biology course, the ‘IB Biology Revision Workbook’ is intended for use by students studying at any stage of the two-year course. Teachers and tutors will also enjoy using this workbook with their students. A wide variety of revision tasks are included covering topics of the Standard Level Core, Additional Higher Level and each of the four Options.
The tasks include skills and applications taken directly from the guide, as well as activities aimed at consolidating learning. Students are asked to draw, label, colour or annotate diagrams; sketch or analyse graphs; complete concept maps and Venn diagrams; answer examination-style questions; fill in summary tables; and connect related ideas.
A section on preparation is included to assist students prior to the examinations, along with exam-answering techniques and helpful tips to answering questions. A glossary of key terms and summary of prefixes and suffixes also assists student revision.

A Note to the Student
This guide is for you. It is intended to be used for revision during the two years of the DP Biology course and when studying for your final examinations. The activities will provide you with opportunities to test your knowledge in each of the Standard and Higher Level topics and the Option topic you have studied.
Each activity lists relevant command terms, descriptions of which can be found in the DP Biology guide. The pages and diagrams have been left in black and white for you to add colour to assist in your revision.
