Key terms
- viral infections: viral infections is a curriculum-aligned term linked to the learning objective: Describe why doctors should not prescribe antibiotics inappropriately, including for non-serious or viral infections..
- Describe: In Resistant bacteria, Describe means describe is a curriculum-aligned term linked to the learning objective: Describe why doctors should not prescribe antibiotics inappropriately, including for non-serious or viral infections. This matters in The development of understanding of genetics and evolution because it supports the learning objective to describe why doctors should not prescribe antibiotics inappropriately, including for non-serious or viral infections. Use Describe only in this subtopic-relevant sense so the definition stays concise, curriculum-specific, and useful for AQA GCSE Biology revision. Students should use this term accurately when they explain the biology, identify symptoms, or justify an answer in GCSE Biology questions.
