Q

Diffusion ?

Osmosis ?

Active transport ?

A

Diffusion = movement from high to low

Osmosis = pass through semi permable membrane from a less concentrated to more

Active transport = ions across a cell membrane from a low to high

Q

artificial heart , stent and heart valve replacements

A

advantages : prevent the development of blood clots)

however their relatively poor durability compared to mechanical valves, with many requiring a re-operation in 10 to 20 years

Q

process of breathing in and out

A

lungs exhale - the diaphragm relaxes, and the volume of the thoracic cavity decreases, while the pressure within it increases. As a result, the lungs contract and air is forced out.

Q

how does the heart pump blood ?

from its left side, through the aorta (main artery leaving the heart) and into the arteries , travels through your arteries, which divide off into smaller and smaller blood vessels called capillaries.

Q
key features of 
arteries 
veins 
capillaries 
how do they help ?
A

The capillaries connect the two types of blood vessel and molecules are exchanged

arteries Have thick muscular and elastic walls to pump and accommodate blood

veins thin walls - have less muscular tissue than arteries

Q

3 adaptations of red blood cells

how does oxygen interact with haemoglobin

A

they have no nucleus so they can contain more haemoglobin. they are small and flexible so that they can fit through narrow blood vessels. they have a biconcave shape (flattened disc shape) to maximise their surface area for oxygen absorption.
