Online Revision Resources
For National 5 Biology an online e-textbook has been created by the PLHS Biology Department and has generously been made freely available.
Units are divided into subsections and a growing number of links will be available to direct you to other apppropriate revision and video resources available on the web. These can be of use in addressing some of the questions in homework exercises. In addition, links to background information to allow you to explore topics in greater depth are also provided.
Homework Information
In the National 5 written homework sheets, some questions have hyperlinks and these often take you to the appropriate page in this online textbook. Alternatively hyperlinks may help you in understanding what the question is asking. Click on the links, where available if you are having difficulty. For some questions in page hints may help you to better understand the question; click on the hint to reveal it.
If you have explored all other possibilities look at the marking guide to see if you can now understand the question and how it should be answered. Comments or tips to help class colleagues can be posted if you login to your Glow account.
Differentiated Questions
Homework questions are divided into more or less challenging. More challenging questions have been written in a red typeface. These questions are appropriate to students who can meet greater demands. The questions demand a deeper understanding or wider breadth of knowledge of the National 5 course content or are of more intricate problem solving nature. All questions in black typeface should be attempted, but the red typeface questions may require a little more thought. Your teacher can advise you on the challenge most appropriate to yourself.
There is a link to the answers for the homework, but you do need your Glow login to access this.
