Q

Structure and role of villus (capillaries and lacteals)

A
  • folds, villi, microvilli
  • thin walls (one cell)

Q

Structure of artery

A

Thick muscular walls, prevent rupture during blood influx
Small lumen

24
Q

Structure of vein

A

Thin walls less elastic tissue : lower bp
Large lumen
Valves present prevent backflow

25
Q

Structure of capillaries

A

May exchange between blood and tissue
Large network = SA:vol
Endothelium: single layer of flattened cells for water permeability

26
Q

Transfer of mats between capillaries and tissue fluid

A

Colourless fluid in between cells
Useful mats -> caps -> tissue fluid -> cells
Waste -> tissue -> cap walls -> blood -> excretory organs

27
Q

Coronary heart disease

A
  • occlusion of coronary arteries
  • causes: diet, stress, smoking
  • preventive measures: physical activity, smoke less, drink less
28
Q

Process of removal of co2 from lungs

A

Co2 reacts with water to (carbonic anhydrase) carbonic acid
Converted to hydrogen carbonate ions
Reverted in lungs, diffuse out capillaries into alveoli and out

29
Q

Role of cilia in resp

A

In trachea with gland cells, sweep foreign particles and dust, keep out of lungs

30
Q

Effects of tobacco smoke

A

Nicotine: risk of blood clot = risk of coronary disease
Tar: carcinogenic, paralyses cilia = Lung cancer
Carbon monoxide: carboxyhemoglobin

31
Q

Equation for aerobic resp

A

Glucose + oxygen -> co2 + water + energy

32
Q

Equation for anaerobic resp

A

Glucose -> lactic + small amt of energy
Yeast: glucose -> ethanol + co2 + small amt of energy

33
Q

Lactic acid in muscles n stuff

A

Energy req more than aerobic
Lactic acid acc -> fatigue and pain
Insufficient o2 -> o2 debt
Lactic acid removed transported to liver, oxidised to release energy, converted to glucose

34
Q

Define excretion

A

Process where metabolic waste and toxic products removed after undergoing Chem processes

35
Q

Ultrafiltration pressure

A

Req high hydro stick pressure
Afferent arteriole wider than efferent arteriole so pressure pushes blood plasma out glomerular caps into bowman’s capsule THEN basement mem

36
Q

Corrective mechanisms when cold af

A
  • shivering
  • hair erector contract
  • arterioles constrict, shunt dilate (less blood flow)
  • less sweat
  • higher rate of metabolic activity

Lowers heat loss via conduction convection radiation
And latent heat of vaporisation from water in sweat

37
Q

Purpose of nervous system

A

Serves to coordinate and regulate bodily functions

38
Q

Hormone def

A

Chemical substance prod by a endocrine gland carried by bloodstream altering activity of one or more target orange s, destroyed by liver

39
Q

What is endocrine gland

A

Into bloodstream
Ductless

40
Q

Effects of adrenaline (some)

A
  • higher blood pressure and heartbeat rate
  • higher metabolic rate
  • more blood glucose
  • higher rate and depth of ventilation
  • pupils dilate
  • constricts skin arterioles
41
Q

What does insulin do

A

Insulin
- cell surface more permeable to glucose
- stimulated liver and muscle cells: excess glucose to glycogen

42
Q

Growth of pollen tube into ovule 7

A
  1. Pollen grain germinates cause sugary fluid from mature stigma
  2. Pollen grain nucleus causes pollen tube to grow out of grain
  3. Male gamete enters ptube
  4. Ptube secrets enzymes that digest stigma and style tissues
  5. Pollen tube grows down style to ovary
  6. Enters thru micropyle
  7. Reaches ovule, absorbs sap, tip bursts
43
Q

Why need genetically id cells

A
  • ensure all d cells are genetically stable
  • error: new strand diff - gene mutation (eg. Uncontrollable division- cancer)
44
Q

Homologous chromosomes def

A

Pairs, identical shapes sizes, lengths
One from male one from female parents
Same sequence of gene loci

45
Q

Define haploid and diploid

A

Single set of chromosomes, 23
Two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent, 46

46
Q

R/s between dna, genes, chromosomes

A

Gene: part of dna, sequence of nucleotides, codes for 1 polypeptide
Dna: polynucleotides, 2 strands in double helix
Chromosomes: dna threads coil around protein -> chromatin threads (condense and coil) -> chromosomes

47
Q

Social and ethical implications of genetic engineering

A

Affordable drugs/medicine like human insulin
Improved nutritional quality of food

Social = lead to class distinctions and religious disputes
Health = genes for antibiotic resistance may cause human diseases
Environmental = GE crops may produce toxins that are harmful to insects

48
Q

Mutation def

A

A change in structure of gene or in chromosome number

49
Q

Examples of enviro factors that are forces of natural selection

A

Environmental pressures: Predation, disease, food shortage??

50
Q

Describe non cylical nature of energy flow

A
  • sun main source
  • light e to Chem e via psis
  • e from level to another via feeding
  • lost via heat uneaten parts dead bodies excretion
51
Q

Decomposer in food chains

A
  • obtain e by breaking down dead orgs, faeces, excretory products
  • release inorganic nutrients eg carbon and nitrogen
