Breathing and Exchange of Gases

• Respiratory System, Mechanism of Breathing
• Transport of Oxygen & Carbon Dioxide

Body Fluids and Circulation

• Blood & Lymph, Human Heart, Cardiac Cycle
• Blood Pressure, ECG

Excretory Products and Their Elimination

• Human Excretory System, Urine Formation, Regulation

Locomotion and Movement

• Muscles & Joints, Types of Movements
• Skeletal System & Disorders

Neural Control and Coordination

• Structure & Function of Neuron
• Human Nervous System, Reflex Actions

Chemical Coordination and Integration

• Endocrine Glands & Hormones
• Feedback Mechanism of Hormonal Regulation

 NEET Exam Strategy for Biology

NCERT is Key – Read NCERT line by line and highlight important terms.
Conceptual Clarity – Understand diagrams, processes, and functions.
Previous Year Questions (PYQs) – Solve last 10 years’ NEET questions.
Mock Tests & Flashcards – Regular practice improves speed and accuracy.
Mnemonics & Short Notes – Helps in quick revision before the exam.

 Do you need topic-wise important questions, revision notes, or a study plan for NEET?

Tips for NEET/AIIMS/JIPMER Biology Prep:

• Focus on NCERT line by line – most NEET questions are directly based on it.

• Make concept maps for chapters like Plant Physiology and Cell Biology.

• Practice diagrams regularly (structure of nephron, heart, brain, plant tissues, etc.).

• Revise regularly using chapter-wise MCQs.

• Use previous year papers from NEET, AIIMS, and JIPMER for practice.
