    Recommendations to Teachers and Students
    • Unit 2.5 (Genetics) represents a significant and important component of the revised
    syllabus, and much of the material (e.g. Law of Independent Assortment, linkage,
    DNA structure, protein synthesis) has been carried over from the previous syllabus.
    As an understanding of these topics is fundamental to much modern biotechnology,
    this material will continue to feature in the written examination and teachers and
    students should ensure that it is allocated sufficient time during the course

    • Section B represents an attempt to establish students’ engagement with the practical
    activities that form an integral part of the course. While some form of more direct
    assessment of this component would be preferable and more valid, this section will
    continue to form a part of the examination paper in the short term. Teachers and
    students should note that, as far as possible, these questions are phrased in a way that
    will attempt to assess candidates’ actual engagement with practical work. They
    should also note that marks are generally awarded for mention of safety procedures
    during practical activities.
