Why build your own WJEC Biology flashcards

Ready-made decks rarely follow the order your teacher covers topics, so many students end up writing their own WJEC A-Level Biology flashcards by hand. DeckOwl lets you skip the copying by generating a custom set from the notes and slides you already have.

  • Generate cards from your own WJEC specification notes, lesson slides or past paper mark schemes.
  • Edit any card before you study, so the wording matches your course.
  • Let spaced repetition focus your time on the topics you keep forgetting.
  • Use quizzes and mind maps alongside flashcards to test application as well as recall.
Example WJEC A-Level Biology flashcards
What is the role of NAD in aerobic respiration?It accepts hydrogen atoms during glycolysis, the link reaction and the Krebs cycle, becoming reduced NAD, which carries them to the electron transport chain.
Why does the Krebs cycle turn twice for each glucose molecule?Each glucose produces two pyruvate molecules, and each one enters the link reaction to form one acetyl CoA that starts a turn of the cycle.
What is the difference between a codon and an anticodon?A codon is a triplet of bases on mRNA that codes for one amino acid, while an anticodon is the complementary triplet on tRNA that pairs with it.
What does the Hardy-Weinberg equation calculate?Expected genotype frequencies in a population that is not evolving, using p² + 2pq + q² = 1, where p + q = 1 for the two alleles.
What is the function of the Golgi apparatus?It modifies, packages and sorts proteins and lipids into vesicles for transport within the cell or secretion out of it.

Upload any format

Add PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain text notes, or photos of pages. Text recognition reads images as well.

Spaced repetition

Cards you find hard come back sooner, so your revision time goes to the biology topics that need it most.

Quizzes and mind maps

Check understanding with multiple choice, true or false and short answer questions, or map how topics such as respiration and photosynthesis connect.

How it works

Upload your material

Add your own notes, slides or textbook extracts for any topic on your WJEC A-Level Biology course.

Review your cards

Read through the generated flashcards, edit anything that misses your teacher's wording, and keep what you need.

Study with spaced repetition

Work through your deck in the browser each day, and let the schedule bring back the cards you keep missing.

Biology at A-Level asks you to recall precise terms, process steps and the links between them, such as how the Krebs cycle feeds into the electron transport chain. Flashcards built from your own material keep that detail in your teacher's wording.

Spaced repetition works best when the deck is always in use. Reviewing a short set of cards most days is more effective than one long session before an exam.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for one A-Level Biology topic?

There is no fixed number. Aim for one card per definition, process step or named structure, and split long topics like respiration into smaller decks so each one stays manageable.

What is a good way to revise photosynthesis with flashcards?

Write cards that ask why each stage happens, not only what it is called, such as why the light-independent reactions depend on ATP and NADPH. Check the inputs, outputs and locations of each stage against your notes.

Can I export my WJEC Biology flashcards to Anki?

Yes, Anki export is included on the Plus and Pro plans, and Plus also includes PDF, DOCX and CSV export. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.

Is there a free plan, and do students get a discount?

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Students with a school email get 40% off paid plans.
