  "note": "Eleven chapters written to the revised National Curriculum 2023, structurally the broadest of the three boards' Biology 9 books: it adds Biomolecules, Reproduction in Plants and a full Biostatistics chapter (\"biostatistic\" occurs 28 times here against two in KP and one in Sindh). It also carries the corpus's cleanest edition-era tell - COVID-19 is defined substantively at p.36 and returns as the worked public-health example in the Biostatistics chapter at p.168, where no Sindh or KP science book mentions it at all. A1 is 3 for section 1.4, \"Quranic Instructions to Reveal the Study of Life\" (TOC PAGE 3), an assessed learning outcome - \"State that the Holy Quran instructs to reveal the study of Life\" (PAGE 5) - quoting Al-Anbiya 30 and Al-Nur 45 and glossing them as \"the common origin and modification of animals\". That gloss is the only place in the corpus where a board uses scripture to support an evolutionary framing. Equally notable is what Punjab dropped: it keeps the Quranic section but has no Muslim-scientist history-of-science section, which both Sindh and KP retain. A7 5 on absence - one female-marked token in 39,776 words.",
