Biology / Neuroscience CourseAs I explained in the presentation of my profile, I had teachers (of sciences) who discouraged me by explaining things in a complex and incomprehensible way but thanks to a repeater, which simplified me the approach to biology / neuroscience, I discovered this passion for science, neuroscience and biology. It is for this reason that I would like to give other students the opportunity to understand the subject in a simple way without changing the technical terms.
I adapt to the curriculum of my students and set a goal to achieve with him / her, so that we work TOGETHER on this goal.
My availability will be better by March 2017

Come and learn Biology 0610 and Chemistry 0620, Physics 0625, mathematics 0580. with an expert. Book now and have your best experience.In the IGCSE and CIE (Cambridge International Education)curricula, Genetics is a part of Biology under the broader topics of inheritance and variation. It is covered in both IGCSE Biologyand AS/A Level Biology. Below is a breakdown of what you can expect in each:
IGCSE Biology (Cambridge - 0610/0970)
The topic of genetics is introduced under the following key areas:
1. Variation and Inheritance
- Genetic variation: Understanding differences caused by genetic and environmental factors.
- Inheritance:
- Definition of key terms: genes, alleles, dominant, recessive, homozygous, heterozygous, phenotype, genotype.
- Monohybrid inheritance (using Punnett squares to predict offspring ratios).
- Concepts of dominant and recessive traits.
- Structure of DNA:
- Basic structure of DNA (double helix) and its role in carrying genetic information.
- Mutations:
- Causes (e.g., radiation, chemicals) and effects of mutations on organisms.
2. Selective Breeding and Genetic Engineering (basic concepts):
- Selective breeding in animals and plants to produce desired traits.
- Introduction to genetic modification (GM), though details are limited in IGCSE.

CIE AS and A Level Biology (9700)
At the A Level, genetics is covered in greater depth. Key concepts include:
1. DNA and Protein Synthesis:
- Structure of DNA, RNA, and nucleotides.
- Transcription, translation, and protein synthesis.
- Genetic code and its universal nature.
2. Cell Division:
- Mitosis and meiosis.
- Significance of meiosis in genetic variation (crossing over, independent assortment).
3. Inheritance:
- Mendelian genetics: monohybrid and dihybrid crosses.
- Codominance and multiple alleles.
- Sex-linked inheritance (e.g., haemophilia, color blindness).
- Pedigree analysis.
4. Gene Technology:
- Recombinant DNA technology (genetic modification and cloning).
- Applications of genetic engineering in medicine and agriculture.
5. Mutations:
- Gene mutations and their effects.
- Chromosomal abnormalities.
6. Variation and Selection:
- Natural selection and evolution.
- Role of genetic variation in populations.
---
Summary
- At the IGCSE level, genetics focuses on basic concepts of inheritance, variation, DNA structure, and simple Punnett square problems.
- At the AS/A Level, the depth increases significantly, introducing advanced topics like meiosis, protein synthesis, genetic engineering, and natural selection.

A-Level Biology: Understand Protein Synthesis from DNA to Proteins – Transcription and Translation Made Easy.Protein Synthesis – Edexcel A-Level Biology (Brief Class Summary)
1. Overview
Time: 10minutes
Protein synthesis is the process by which cells build proteins based on genetic instructions. It occurs in two main stages: transcription and translation.
2. Key Stages
Time: 40 minutes
a) Transcription (Nucleus)
- DNA unzips and RNA polymerase reads the template strand.
- mRNA (messenger RNA) is synthesized using complementary base pairing.
- mRNA leaves the nucleus via nuclear pores.
b) Translation (Ribosome – Cytoplasm)
- Ribosomes read the mRNA codons.
- tRNA brings specific amino acids to the ribosome.
- Anticodons on tRNA match with codons on mRNA.
- Amino acids link via peptide bonds, forming a polypeptide.
3. Important Molecules
- DNA– Stores genetic code.
- mRNA – Temporary copy of gene.
-tRNA– Transfers amino acids.
-Ribosomes – Site of protein synthesis.
-Amino Acids– Building blocks of proteins.
4. Conclusion
Time: 10 Minutes
- Understand codon-anticodon matching.
- Be able to describe transcription and translation step-by-step.
- Practice interpreting DNA
→ mRNA
→ amino acid sequences.

Biology and science for young students and medical subjects for university students in Arabic and EnglishScience education at various educational levels is the cornerstone of building students' scientific understanding. In elementary school, science education focuses on developing curiosity and acquiring basic concepts through simple activities and experiments. In middle school, scientific understanding is deepened by studying the principles of physics, chemistry, and life sciences in an integrated manner. In high school, biology is taught in a more specialized manner, as students learn about cells, genetics, body systems, and biological diversity, preparing them for university studies. Teaching biology and basic medical subjects such as anatomy, physiology, pathology, and pharmacology is an important pillar in preparing students for medicine, pharmacy, and nursing. The focus is on applied science, with the depth of content varying according to each specialty, using modern methods such as active learning, simulation, and e-learning to enhance understanding and critical thinking.
