    I’ve been dropping links to resources I’ve found useful in a few threads based upon topic. Different people absorb information in different ways though and different people have different levels of pre existing knowledge.

    Khan Academy has lots of courses designed exactly to help by providing a more structured pathway. They generally cover what you’d consider as school level, everything you can choose to learn up to around 18 years old, so you can get quite a long way in understanding the topics.

    Khan Academy Biology Pathways

    High School Biology (structured high/secondary school level courses including quizzes and progress tracking, start here or pick just the units you are interested in, similar to GCSE level, very accessible)

    https://www.khanacademy.org/science/hs-bio

    Some specific sections likely of interest include
    From Cells to Organisms
    https://www.khanacademy.org/science/hs-bio/x230b3ff252126bb6:from-cells-to-organisms

    Gene Expression and Regulation

    AP/College Biology (structured AP/college/6th form level courses, similar to A Level, good if you have a basic understanding already or want to explore these topics in more detail, still accessible)

    https://www.khanacademy.org/science/ap-biology

    Some specific sections likely of interest include
    Cell Structure and Function
