Biology study guides

A deep-dive guide to the Cells domain (SB1) of the Georgia Milestones Biology EOC: the organelles as a structure-and-function system, prokaryotic versus eukaryotic cells, the selectively permeable membrane and transport, the four macromolecules, enzymes and activation energy, and photosynthesis and cellular respiration, with the item types the EOC uses.

A deep-dive guide to the Classification and Phylogeny domain (SB4) of the Georgia Milestones Biology EOC: the cell cycle and mitosis, the organization of interacting body systems and homeostasis, classification and taxonomy, cladograms and phylogenetic trees, and viruses and the criteria for life, with the item types the EOC uses.

A deep-dive guide to the Ecology domain (SB5) of the Georgia Milestones Biology EOC, the largest domain at about 27 percent: energy flow and food webs, the cycling of matter, population dynamics and carrying capacity, biodiversity and ecosystem stability, environmental change and succession, and human impact and conservation, with the item types the EOC uses.

A deep-dive guide to the Heredity domain (SB3) of the Georgia Milestones Biology EOC: meiosis and the sources of genetic variation, Mendelian genetics and Punnett squares, complex inheritance (incomplete dominance, codominance, multiple alleles), pedigree analysis and sex-linked traits, and comparing sexual and asexual reproduction, with the item types the EOC uses.

A deep-dive guide to the Molecular Genetics domain (SB2) of the Georgia Milestones Biology EOC: the structure of DNA and RNA, semiconservative replication, transcription and translation, mutations and how they create variation, and the uses and ethics of biotechnology, with the item types the EOC uses.

A deep-dive guide to the Theory of Evolution domain (SB6) of the Georgia Milestones Biology EOC, about 17 percent of the test: how evolutionary theory developed (Darwin, Lamarck, deep time, genetics), the evidence for common descent, natural selection, the mechanisms that change allele frequencies, and speciation and resistance, with the item types the EOC uses.
