    A closer look at Life Sciences.

    01

    What we can work on together

    Link biological structures and processes with their functions. Use labelled diagrams and evidence to build a precise explanation. Turn a list of terms into a causal sequence. Explain what changes first, what follows and which observation would support the proposed mechanism.

    02

    Match practice to your course

    Confirm the subject and assessment body. Mathematics and Mathematical Literacy have different curricula; English Home Language and First Additional Language have different requirements. Use the current DBE guidance for the course you take.

    03

    Make the lesson fit your school work in South Africa

    For school support in South Africa, share the CAPS phase, assessment body and language level where relevant. Use the school’s term plan to sequence practice and discuss a realistic routine around homework, connectivity and the next assessment. Bring an attempted question so your tutor can see how you reason, then agree what to practise next.

    Understand it. Try it. Review it.

    Put your life sciences learning into practice.

    Worked example · Cells, inheritance and evidence

    Two heterozygous parents have genotype Bb. What is the chance of bb offspring?

    1. Each parent can pass B or b.
    2. The combinations are BB, Bb, Bb and bb.
    3. One of four combinations is bb: probability 1/4 for each offspring under this model.
    Common mistakes to check
    • Assuming dominant means common
    • Changing more than one experimental variable at once
