AP Biology PowerPoints: Campbell 6th Edition

Browse the existing Campbell Biology 6th-edition PowerPoint collection by subject. Each link opens an older .ppt file; use a compatible presentation viewer and preview its full contents before class.

This collection includes original/revised cell slides and a separately labeled Mendel revision. Keep those variants distinct when selecting a presentation. It uses an older textbook sequence and should not be treated as a current AP exam outline.

For current course content and skills, use College Board’s AP Biology course page and its linked Course and Exam Description. These legacy resources are supplements; a textbook chapter number is not an AP unit number, and inclusion here does not establish complete alignment or College Board endorsement.

Use a deck as a teaching aid

  1. Choose a few slides that support one learning goal, rather than assigning a whole deck automatically.
  2. Preview figures, animations, scientific names, links, and accessibility in the classroom software.
  3. Pair a visual explanation with a question, model, graph, or practice task. Check the content against the course you teach.

Foundations and chemistry

Cells, membranes, and signaling

For a related lesson sequence, use Cells and Transport Teaching Resources.

Energy and metabolism

Heredity, genes, and development

Use the AP worksheet directory to choose practice by topic; preview the resource rather than assuming a chapter-to-worksheet match.

Evolution and biological diversity

Plant biology

Animal structure and function

Edition, credits, and use

These are historical textbook supplements, not newly revised presentations or official College Board materials. Preserve copyright statements within the files and check permissions before editing or redistributing them. Older .ppt files can display differently in modern software.

Legacy directory credit retained: Neil A. Campbell, Jane B. Reece, Lawrence G. Mitchell; Copyright Pearson/Benjamin Cummings. This reproduces the directory’s credit line rather than independently verifying authorship of every deck. Legacy publisher reference for the 6th edition.
