Q

double circulation system

A
  • 4 heart chambers
  • blood passes in heart twice
  • oxygenated in lungs to heart to body back to heart
  • this delivers great blood flow rate to tissues around the body as the heart pumps the oxygenated blood to and from the lungs

Q

physical activity(effect on heart and reason)

A

makes the heart beat quicker and more deeply for an increased circulation of blood
l_>so that more oxygen and glucose can get to the muscles

Q

coronary heart diesease(definition, causes, treatment)

A

coronary artery becomes blocked interrupting supply of blood to the heart muscle

  • caused by smoking, drinking, poor diet, stress, genetics
  • can be prevented by changing lifestyle
  • can be treated with aspirins or surgical intervention
17
Q

artery( definition and 2 adaptations)

A

transport high pressure blood away from the heart

  • narrow lumen to keep blood at high pressure
  • thick collagen and smooth muscle to prevent artery from bursting
18
Q

vein(definition,2 adaptations)

A

transports low pressure blood into the heart

  • wide lumen
  • thin smooth muscle amd collagen level
19
Q

capillary

A

allows substancs to diffuse into cells

-endothelial cells-one cell thick

20
Q

lymphatic system

A

production of lymphocytes

circulation of bodily fluids

21
Q

lymph nodes

A

many lyphocytes which filter lymph

22
Q

blood composition

A

red blood cells,white blood cells, plasma, platelets

23
Q

red blood cells

A

transport haemoglobin and oxygen

24
Q

white blood cells

A

phagocytosis and antibody formation

25
Q

platelets

A

clots blood

26
Q

plasma

A

trasport of blood cells, ions, hormones

27
Q

antigen

A

protein/carbohydrate on top of a pathogen which provokes immune system

28
Q

antibody

A

y-shaped protein that fights off pathogens

29
Q

phagocyte

A
  • has nucleus which contains enzyme
  • engulfs the pathogen
  • enzymes in nucleus digest bacteria
30
Q

lymphocyte

A
  • kills bacteria with antibody

- large nucleus and produces antibodies
