• Exam Specifications
• Key Stage 4
• AQA GCSE Science A (4461) Biology
• II. Unit Biology 1b – Evolution and Environment
• 5. What determines where particular species live and how many of them there are?
• Plants often compete with each other for light and for water and nutrients from the soil.
• 8. How do humans affect the environment?
• to analyse and interpret scientific data concerning environmental issues
• Rapid growth in the human population and an increase in the standard of living means that: - raw materials are rapidly being used up - more waste is produced - more pollution will be caused.
• AQA GCSE Additional Science (4463) Biology
• II. Biology 2
• 3. How do plants obtain the food they need to live and grow?
• to interpret data showing how factors affect the rate of photosynthesis and evaluate the benefits of artificially manipulating the environment in which plants are grown.
