IB MYP Biology e-Assessment Exam Style Practice Questions
The IB MYP Biology e-assessment consists of nine broad topics:
- Cells
- Organisms
- Processes
- Metabolism
- Evolution
- Interactions with environment
- Interactions between organisms
- Human interactions with environments
- Biotechnology
Interactions between organisms
Human interactions with environments
IB MYP Biology 4&5 Topic Coverage for e-Assessment
- Cells (tissues, organs, systems, structure and function; factors affecting human health; physiology; vaccination)
- Organisms (habitat, ecosystems, interdependency, unity and diversity in life forms; energy transfer and cycles [including nutrient, carbon, nitrogen]; classification)
- Processes (photosynthesis, cell respiration, aerobic and anaerobic, word and chemical equations)
- Metabolism (nutrition, digestion, biochemistry and enzymes; movement and transport, diffusion; osmosis; gas exchange; circulation, transpiration and translocation; homeostasis)
- Evolution (life cycles, natural selection; cell division, mitosis, meiosis; reproduction; biodiversity; inheritance and variation, DNA and genetics)
- Interactions with environment (tropism, senses, nervous system, receptors and hormones)
- Interactions between organisms (pathogens/parasites, predator/prey, food chains and webs; competition, speciation and extinction)
- Human interactions with environments (human influences, habitat change or destruction, pollution/ conservation; overexploitation, mitigation of adverse effects)
- Biotechnology (genetic modification, cloning; ethical implications, genome mapping and application, 3D tissue and organ printing)
MYP eAssessment
MYP eAssessment offers students opportunities to demonstrate disciplinary and interdisciplinary understanding, international-mindedness, critical and creative thinking, problem-solving skills and the ability to apply knowledge in unfamiliar situations.
