Know this first

Biology questions are solved by linking a structure or organism to its function, process and stated condition.

Structure · The biological part or level being namedFunction · What that structure or process does

Read a cell from its boundary to its working parts

Boundary
Organelle
Function

Structure → location → job

First locate the boundary, then the control or energy structure, then the organelle named in the question. Match its structure to its job.

Find the tested idea

Name the biological structure, organism or process first, then identify the condition that makes it distinctive.

Build the solution

Match structure to function and trace the process in its correct order. Keep similar terms separate by the job each one performs.

Verify before choosing

Return to the exact wording and check that the conclusion satisfies every stated condition, unit and definition.

  • ✓Identify the level: molecule, cell, tissue, organism or ecosystem.
  • ✓Match structure with function.
  • ✓Check the stated condition or exception.
OlympIQ trap

Do not choose a familiar biological word unless it fits both the named structure and the stated function.
