Barron’s Let’s Review: Life Science Biology gives students the comprehensive content review, step-by-step explanations, and Regents-style practice they need to succeed on the updated Regents Examination in Life Science: Biology—fully aligned with New York State’s latest learning standards.

This new edition reflects the 2025 exam format and features:

• One recent Regents question set, modeled in the new cluster-based format, with answer explanations that clarify correct and incorrect choices
• Teacher support tools, including guidelines for building instruction around New York’s revised science standards

Two in-depth study units provide a clear and accessible review of essential biology content:

• Unit One explains the process of scientific inquiry, including how students observe, model, and explain real-world biological phenomena, with emphasis on science and engineering practices used in labs and data interpretation
• Unit Two covers core biological topics such as:
  • Cell structure and function
  • Biochemistry of living organisms
  • Genetics and heredity
  • Ecology and human impact on ecosystems
  • Evolution and biodiversity
  • Energy flow and matter cycling in organisms and ecosystems

Throughout the book, content is connected to the three dimensions of science learning:

• Science and Engineering Practices (skills used to investigate and explain science)
• Core Ideas in Life Science (the most important concepts to know)
• Crosscutting Concepts (themes that link ideas across topics and units)

Designed as a supportive companion to classroom learning or a standalone Regents review tool, Let’s Review: Life Science Biology helps students build deep understanding—and readiness for the 2025 Regents Biology exam.
