This document provides a summary of topics to be covered in a biology revision, including the pollination and seed dispersal and germination processes in flowering plants, food chains, and using a dichotomous key. It describes the male and female parts of flowers, the lifecycle of flowering plants, factors affecting seed germination, and defines a food chain and dichotomous key. Practice questions and answers are included at the end for revision.

Dispersal and Germination. Food chain Dichotomous key Parts of a flower • Male Part of the Flower: Stamen • Female part of the flower: Pistil/ Carpel The lifecycle of a flowering plant Seed Dispersal Seed Germination Factors affecting seed germination Food Chain • A food chain explains which organism eats another organism in the environment. The food chain is a linear sequence of organisms where nutrients and energy is transferred from one organism to the other. This occurs when one organism consumes another organism. It begins with the producer organism, follows the chain and ends with the decomposer organism. After understanding the food chain, we realise how one organism is dependent upon another organism for survival. Dichotomous Key • A dichotomous key is a tool that uses a series of yes or no questions, statements, or descriptions ordered or grouped in pairs in order to identify a specimen within a defined group of specimens.
