CAIE IGCSE Biology syllabusBiology 0610Exams 2026-2028

Practise defining chemical digestion and using diagrams or tubing models to link molecular size, solubility and absorption.

How this is tested

  • define chemical digestion as large insoluble molecules becoming small soluble molecules
  • explain why small soluble products can cross membranes into the blood
  • interpret diagrams or dialysis tubing results as digestion followed by absorption
