This lesson uses a 10 question multiple-choice assessment to provide students with the opportunity to assess their knowledge of neuronal communication. Module 5.1.3 of the OCR A-level biology A specification covers the role of mammalian sensory receptors, the structure and function of neurones, the generation and transmission of nerve impulses and the structure and roles of synapses and these 10 questions attempt to challenge their overall understanding of this content. The lesson also includes a PowerPoint with the answers to the questions and also further understanding checks to challenge knowledge not directly covered by the multiple-choice assessment. There are also some prior knowledge checks and links to the future.
