Biology, like all sciences, is a practical subject. Throughout the course you will carry out practical activities including: •using microscopes to see cell division •dissection of animal or plant systems •aseptic technique to study microbial growth •investigating activity within cells •investigating animal behaviours •investigating distributions of species in the environment. These practicals will give you the skills and confidence needed to investigate the way living things behave and work. It will also ensure that if you choose to study a Biology-based subject at university, you’ll have the practical skills needed to carry out successful experiments in your degree. “Biology is bigger than physics. It enjoys bigger budgets, a bigger workforce, and achieves more major discoveries. Biology is likely to remain the biggest part of science through the twenty-first century.” Freeman Dyson, theoretical physicist and mathematician
