This editable MYP Grade 10 Biology resource provides a set of in-class Criterion B: Inquiring and Designing assessment tasks for the unit Evolution and Classification.

For an additional 10% savings, you can purchase the full 7-unit bundle:
/teaching-resource/resource-13478374

The package includes three inquiry-based tasks designed to be completed during class time. Each task helps students practise the key skills required for Criterion B, including developing a research question, formulating a hypothesis, identifying variables, planning data collection, constructing results tables, and designing a valid method. The tasks are marked using the MYP Criterion B strands and are supported by full teacher mark schemes.

What is included:

  • 3 editable Criterion B student tasks
  • 3 teacher mark schemes
  • In-class assessment format
  • Research question practice
  • Hypothesis writing practice
  • Variables tables
  • Results table construction
  • Method design questions
  • Validity and reliability prompts
  • Safety and limitation considerations where relevant
  • Mark scheme guidance for each Criterion B strand

The three tasks cover:

  • Natural selection: effect of predation on prey colour frequency
  • Antibiotic resistance: effect of antibiotic concentration on zone of inhibition
  • Selective breeding: effect of directional selection on mean seed length over successive generations

The tasks include simulation-based investigations, practical-style planning, data collection design, repeated trials, graphing decisions, and interpretation of evolutionary trends.

Students work with key biology concepts, including natural selection, differential survival, predation, cryptic and conspicuous prey, phenotype frequency, allele frequency, antibiotic resistance, zones of inhibition, disc diffusion, minimum inhibitory concentration, artificial selection, selective breeding, heritable variation, seed length, and directional selection.

The resource is fully editable, allowing teachers to adjust the wording, level of support, investigation context, practical details, data tables, examples, or mark scheme expectations to match their own teaching sequence and the specific content delivered in class.

The teacher mark schemes provide model answers, accepted alternatives, scientific explanations, validity notes, safety guidance, graphing guidance, and advice on what stronger responses should include. This supports consistent marking and helps teachers see how students can access each Criterion B strand.

This resource is suitable for MYP Grade 10 Biology, in-class Criterion B assessments, end-of-unit inquiry practice, assessment preparation, classroom assessment, or revision of investigation design skills within the Evolution and Classification unit.
