This is a comprehensive, Distinction-level assignment on the use of genetic engineering technologies, representing the most detailed and hard-worked piece in my BTEC portfolio. It explores cutting-edge techniques in genetic modification, their applications in medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology, and considers both the scientific principles and ethical implications involved. The assignment is extensive, well-structured, and meticulously researched, showcasing deep understanding, critical ...

This Distinction-level assignment focuses on the structure and function of nucleic acids and explains gene expression and protein synthesis in clear, detailed terms. It includes a carefully created nucleotide model, illustrating the components of DNA and RNA: a sugar (ribose in RNA, deoxyribose in DNA), a phosphate group, and the bases (A, T, C, G for DNA; A, U, C, G for RNA). The assignment demonstrates excellent understanding of molecular biology concepts, presenting information in a structur...

This is my fourth assignment for Unit 11 of the BTEC Level 3 Applied Science course, all about genetics and genetic engineering. In this assignment, I explored fundamental DNA techniques—extracting, amplifying, and separating DNA—while also explaining how genetic engineering technologies are used in industrial and medical contexts. I went on to evaluate potential future applications of these technologies and their wider impact. I was really proud to achieve a Distinction for this work, and I...

This is my third assignment for Unit 11 of the BTEC Level 3 Applied Science course, all about genetics and genetic engineering. In this assignment, I studied the principles of inheritance and how genetic traits can be predicted using tools such as Punnett squares and genetic diagrams. I applied these principles to both monohybrid and dihybrid crosses, and explained how probability is used to predict outcomes. I also considered real-world examples of inherited conditions and traits. I was really ...

This is my second assignment for Unit 11 of the BTEC Level 3 Applied Science course, all about genetics and genetic engineering. In this assignment, I investigated how cells divide through mitosis and meiosis, and how these processes contribute to growth, repair, reproduction, and genetic variation. I also explained the importance of gamete formation and fertilisation in producing unique offspring. I was really proud to achieve a Distinction for this work, and I hope it can help guide you too! J...

This is my first assignment for Unit 11 of the BTEC Level 3 Applied Science course, all about genetics and genetic engineering. In this assignment, I explored the structure of DNA and RNA, how nucleic acids control the synthesis of proteins, and the processes of transcription and translation. I also explained how the genetic code is expressed in cells and why this is essential for inheritance and variation. I was really proud to achieve a Distinction for this work, and I hope it can help guide y...

This document describes an in-depth summary of notes for Unit 11 (or Unit 13 if you are doing International A Level). This combines both textbook and class information. I used these notes all throughout my A Levels and I got an A*.

This document describes an in-depth summary of notes for Unit 9 (or Unit 11 if you are doing International A Level). This combines both textbook and class information. I used these notes all throughout my A Levels and I got an A*.

This 12,000 Word document presents a full end-to-end assignment for BTEC Level 3 Information Technology Unit 7, focusing on the design, development, and evaluation of a fully functional educational mobile app. The app, aimed at children aged 5 to 11 at Fishwick Primary School, helps improve mental maths skills through engaging, interactive gameplay across three levels covering addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Created using MIT App Inventor, the project includes: A clear...
