This A Level Biology lesson resource explains the structure and function of plant transport systems, focusing on the xylem and phloem. Students will learn how plants transport water, minerals, and organic molecules through processes such as transpiration, translocation, cohesion-tension theory, and pressure-flow hypothesis. The lesson also explores adaptations of plant tissues, the role of companion cells, and the importance of transport in maintaining plant survival and growth. Fully aligned with the AQA, OCR, and Edexcel A Level Biology specifications, this resource includes clear explanations, labelled diagrams, and exam-style practice questions. Ideal for teaching, revision, or independent study, it builds a strong foundation for success in the transport in plants topic. This resource includes:
1: A power point to lead students through the lesson
2: A sheet for students to fill in
3: An information hunt starter activity
4: A key information sheet
5: Transpirations & translocation activities
6: A vascular tissue activity
7: A group discussion activity
8: A set of notes for students to use
9: A version of the lesson that can be used just from the front of the room
10: A link to a bespoke video that goes through the lesson that can be used for remote learning
