Biology (SVT) 12th Grade Revision Sheets
Review Terminale specialty Biology (SVT) for the bac. The curriculum covers genetics, geology, climate, and immunology, with a written exam demanding scientific rigor and argumentation mastery.
Biology (SVT) curriculum in 12th Grade
The Terminale specialty SVT curriculum is organized around four major themes. Genetics and evolution cover heredity, mutations, diversification of life, and human evolution. The Earth, life, and organization of living things theme addresses plate tectonics, mechanisms of evolution, and molecular genetics. Contemporary planetary challenges deal with ecosystems, climate, and biodiversity. Finally, the human body and health focuses on the immune system (innate and adaptive immunity, vaccination, immunodeficiencies).

FAQ — Biology (SVT) 12th Grade
What are the main SVT themes in Terminale specialty?
The curriculum has four major themes: genetics and evolution (heredity, mutations, diversification of life), geology (plate tectonics, geodynamics), contemporary planetary challenges (ecosystems, climate, biodiversity), and the human body with immunology (innate and adaptive immunity, vaccination). Each theme can be tested on the bac.
How is the SVT specialty bac exam structured?
The exam lasts 3 hours 30 minutes and includes two exercises. The first is typically a synthesis question requiring knowledge on a specific theme, often accompanied by a diagram. The second is a scientific document analysis where you must extract and interpret data to build a reasoned argument. The two exercises cover different themes from the curriculum.
Are diagrams important in SVT on the bac?
Yes, diagrams are essential in SVT and can earn significant points. A clear, labeled, and titled summary diagram is often expected in the synthesis exercise. Practice drawing key program diagrams: immune mechanisms, genetic recombination during meiosis, cell cycle, tectonic plate structure. The clarity and precision of labels count as much as the drawing itself.
