GCSE Biology: Homeostasis & Response — Topic Revision Workbook

GCSE Biology: Homeostasis & Response is a focused five-task activity book covering AQA GCSE Biology Topic 5, mapped to the DfE subject content on the coordination and control of the human body. Learners revise the principle of homeostasis and negative feedback; the human nervous system and the reflex arc (stimulus, receptor, sensory, relay and motor neurones, effector) and synapses; the endocrine system and how hormones differ from nerves; blood glucose control by the pancreas with insulin, glucagon and glycogen, and Type 1 versus Type 2 diabetes; the menstrual cycle hormones FSH, oestrogen, LH and progesterone, contraception and fertility treatment; and thermoregulation, the kidney and ADH in osmoregulation, with plant hormones and tropisms. Tasks 1–4 are auto-marked on screen; Task 5 is an open exam-style 6-marker. The whole book can be printed with a full answer key. Includes teacher, parent and student notes and is fully SEND-friendly with high-contrast and large-text modes.
