Description
AP Biology Unit 8 Review: Aligned to the AP Biology Course and Exam Description! Review and study resources for Ecology. Works great as an AP Biology Test Review or Study Guide as students work though Unit 8. This resource is designed to help guide your AP Biology students to learn, study, and review all of the topics in Unit 8. Perfect for distance learning or in class!
Students will know exactly what College Board expects them to learn. Each AP Bio Essential Standard is written out on the left side of the paper, with focused, alined, open ended questions on the right side for students to work through.
Ecology Topics include:
- 8.1 Responses to the Environment
- 8.2 Energy Flow Through Ecosystems
- 8.3 Population Ecology
- 8.4 Effect of Density of Populations
- 8.5 Community Ecology
- 8.6 Biodiversity
- 8.7 Disruptions to Ecosystems
Product is fully editable PLUS you can share with your students to complete digitally!
Includes an answer KEY!
My AP Biology students benefit tremendously from having quick access to the Essential Knowledge standards and these guiding questions. After going through each set, they feel confident they are ready for the Test!
This resource can be used several ways:
- While going through a Unit as a working document, a learning guide, students can add to it as they read though the text book or listen to lecture
- To complete just before a Unit test as a study guide
- At the end of the semester to prepare for the AP Biology Exam
It is helpful to have students begin a Unit by going through the Essential Knowledge itself, highlighting key vocabulary. This gives them a good foundation to grow from, they know what to look for and what is important as they learn about, or review for the Unit.
When my students use these as review, I put them into small groups of three or four. They work together to complete the questions. Then students get into new groups and review their answers. I help guide them and help with questions that they can not come to an agreement on. This also works virtually with small groups of students on Zoom!
Check out this blog post describing all the ways the resource can be used in your classroom.

I used this item in both in-person and distance learning. I love the fact that it is based on the AP Bio CED and the students loved how easy it was to understand and use. Thank you for this AWESOME resource. – Heather M. July 27, 2021
I love this resource! It has saved me so much time and being in google doc format makes life so much easier. Our district has been doing a variety of virtual and hybrid instruction this year. I ran copies of this, made physical notebooks for my students, and we use it as review at the end of each unit. This has saved me so much time and I highly recommend. My students have also commented on how much they like having comprehensive review materials! Great resource, thank you so much! – Victoria B. February 20, 2021
Excellent Resource!! – Perla R. January 12, 2022
This really helped my students reflect on their learning and summarize main ideas for their unit review. – Shaoni B. August 23, 2020
