IB Biology Topic B1.1: Carbohydrates and Lipids Lessons

This lesson delivers structured, step-by-step lessons that guide students through every part of the IB Biology syllabus for B1.1 Carbohydrates and lipids. These lessons simplify complex ideas like molecular biology, evolutionary mechanisms, and homeostasis, while worked examples show how to approach IB-style questions.

Designed for both HL and SL learners, RevisionDojo lessons ensure students not only understand the theory but also know how to apply it in IB Paper exam situations.

With clear explanations, active learning checks, and a syllabus-first design, RevisionDojo makes revision less overwhelming and more effective.

B1.1.1 Chemical properties of a carbon atom

B1.1.2 Production of macromolecules by condensation reactions

B1.1.3 Digestion of polymers into monomers by hydrolysis reactions

B1.1.4 Form and function of monosaccharides

B1.1.5 Polysaccharides as energy storage compounds

B1.1.6 Structure of cellulose

B1.1.7 Role of glycoproteins in cell–cell recognition

B1.1.8 Hydrophobic properties of lipids

B1.1.9 Formation of triglycerides and phospholipids by condensation reactions

B1.1.10 Difference between saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids

B1.1.11 Triglycerides in adipose tissues for energy storage and thermal insulation

B1.1.12 Formation of phospholipid bilayers

B1.1.13 Ability of non-polar steroids to pass through the phospholipid bilayer
