B7-B9 Flashcards
Non-Communicable disease
A disease that Cannot be passed for, one individual to another.
Benign Tumours
Growths of the abnormal cells contained in one place, usually within the membrane
Malignant tumour cells
Can spread around the body invading neighbouring healthy tissue.
Ionising Radiation
In the form of different types of electromagnetic waves is a well-known carcinogen.
Equation for photosynthesis
Carbon dioxide+water—-> glucose+oxygen
Rate of photosynthesis can be affected by:
. Light intensity
. Temperature
. Carbon Dioxide
What is glucose stored as
Starch
What will starch produce
. Fats and oils (For Storage)
. Cellulose (Strengthen Cell Walls)
. Amino acids (Protein Synthesis)
Cellular Respiration
Is am exothermic reaction that occurs continuously in living cells.
Aerobic Respiration:
Glucose+oxygen—->carbon dioxide + water
Body Response to exercise include:
An increase in heart and breathing rate
Flow of oxygenated blood to the muscles increases.
Anaerobic Respiration Equation
Glucose—> lactic acid
Anaerobic respiration takes place without…….
Oxygen
Metabolism
Is the sum of all the reaction in the body
Examples of metabolism
Conversion of glucose
Reactions of respiration
Reactions of photosynthesis
