IGCSE- BIOLOGY

TOPIC: BIOLOGICAL DRAWING

BY MICHAEL SIR

1
General principle
• Use a sharp pencil only.
• Use clear, continuous lines.
• Don’t use any form of shading.
• Accurate drawings.
• Guidelines(faint sketches) can help.
• Make the drawing large enough.
• Correct mistakes (using erasers).
• Include a tittle.
• Include a scale if relevant.
2
Labelling
• Use sharp pencil.
• Label all relevant structures.
• Use ruler for label lines.
• Label lines should start exactly at the structure being labelled; don’t use
arrowheads.
• Arrange label lines neatly and make sure they don’t cross over each other. It
is visually attractive, though not essential, if the length of the label lines is
adjusted so that the actual labels are right or left justified, i.e. line up
vertically above each other on either side of the drawing.
• Labels should be written horizontally, as in a textbook, not written at the
same angle as the label line.
