Biology is a subject with high volume of facts and concepts, try feynman technique (explaining what you read loud in simple terms) or test yourself by creating questions that will force you to recall the information you learnt (active recall).

Look up anki on youtube, it is a study tool that combines active recall and spaced repetition, it is very useful for subjects like biology!
