Q

what are three examples of vital substances to be transported into organism to dispose of waste products

A
  1. plants take in carbon dioxide as it is crucial for photosynthesis and they get rid of oxygen because it is a waste products
  2. cells need oxygen for aerobic respiration, which CO2 as a waste product
  3. kidney efficiently removes waste such as urea and excess ions. if the excess urea is not removed, it will build up in the body and become toxic

Q

what are three reasons why exchange surfaces are important

A
  1. efficient transfer of essential susbtances
  2. maintain of homeostasis
  3. support of key life processes like repsitration

Q

what are four characteristics of efficient exchange surface

A
  1. large surface area - to maximise area for exchange
  2. thin walls - to reduce the distance that substances need to travel
  3. good blood supply - maintains good concentration gradients
  4. moist surface - facilitates diffusion of substances

Q

what are three examples of exchange surfaces in living things

A
  1. the alveoli in the lungs are exchange surfaces for gases
  2. in the small intestine, the villi increase surface area for nutrient absorption
  3. in plants, the stomata in the leaves allows for gas exhcnage

Q

what happens when you breathe in

A
  1. air passes throught our mouth/nose and then down the traachea
    2.and from there divides between our two bronchi
    3.and further divides between successive branch like structures called bronchiloes
  2. once the air has made its way through all these branches it reaches these small sacs that are arranged like bunches of grapes , alveoli

Q

adaptations of the alveoli

A
  1. made up of one larger layer of very thin cells - creates a short diffusion pathway + increase the rate at which co2 and o2 can diffuse across
    2.large surface area
  2. moist walls - allows gases to dissolve, this increases the rate of diffusion

Q

when the blood in the capillaries return back to the lungs, what happens

A

the haemoglobin in the red blood cells will have already given u0p lots of urgency to the tissues which means that there wont be much left and because the alveoli is full of oxygen, they will have the perfect concentration gradient. the oxygen in the alveoli diffuses down that gradient into the blood and the cycle starts again . the co2 will be at a higher concentration than the alveoli which means it could easily diffuse across and once in the alveolii we can breath I out.throughout the whole process blood keeps on moving with a constant supply of deoxygenated blood entering the capillaries and oxygenated blood leaving it

2. transpoers digestive product such as glucose to the small intestine and other major organs
3. transports co2 produced by aerobic respiration from the organs to the lungs to be breathed out
4. transport ure\ from the liver to the kidneys to be excreatedd in urine

Q

how does blood travel to the heart

A

1.blood is pumped from the heart to the lungs where it collects oxygen
2. the blood then returns to the heart and is pumped around the whole body, where it delivers oxygen to the body cells
3. once the blood has passed through the organs, it goes back to the heart via the veins
4. the blood is travelling slowly and at low pressure . this means it could stop or go backwards

what do arteries carryh

A

very high pressure bkood from the heart to the organs in the body

65
Q
A
66
Q

where do arteries carry blood from

A

ARTERIES AWAY from the heart

67
Q

adaptations for the arteries

A
  1. thick muscular wals - allows them to withstand ver high pressure of blood
    2.elastci fibers which stretch when the surge of blood passes through and then recoil in between surges which keeps the blood moving
68
Q
A
69
Q

how can you feel you pulse

A

blood travel thoruhg the artieries and surges every time it beats, this surge can be felt in the wrist as your pilse

70
Q

adaptations of capillaries

A
  1. very thin walls - diffusion pathway is very short, allows substances to diffuse rapidly between the blood and the body cells
  2. permeable - can easily diffuse through them
  3. one cell thick `

what do many veins have

A

valves

76
Q

adaptations of veins

A
  1. thin wall - blood pressure is low, doesn’t need to be thick
76
Q

what happens when blood is flowing in the correct direction

A

the valves open to allow blood to flow through

to stop back flow

what is the roile of the circulatory system

A

to transport oxygen and nutrients to our body tissues

79
Q

what does the the circulatory system reliey on

A
  1. the blood
  2. blood vessels
    the heart
79
Q

what do the blood vessels do

A

hold the blood

what is singular of atrium

A

atrium

83

A
84
Q

what is plural of atrium

A

atria

85
Q

what is the heart

A

an organ consitsint of mainly muscle tissue

86
Q

how many chambers does the heart have

A

4

87
Q

what are the four chambers of the heart

A

left atrium, right atrium, left ventrible and right ventricle

88
Q

where ae the left atrium and rightr atroum located

A

at the top of the heart

89
Q

where are the left ventricle and right ventricle located

A

at the bottom of the heart

90
Q

what sepearatres the atria from the ventricles

A

valves

91
Q

what are the four main blood vessesls in the heart

A
  1. vena cava
    2.pulmonary artery
  2. pulmonary vein
  3. the aorta
92
Q

what is the role of the vena cva

A

brings deoxygenated blood from the bidy

93
Q

how does blood flow through the heart

A
  1. blood enters the left atrium and right atrium
  2. the atria now contract and the blood is now forced into the ventricles
  3. the ventricles now contract and force blood out of the heart
  4. the valves in the heart stop the backflow of blood into the atria when the ventribles contract
    5.the left side of the heart has a thicker msuculaar wall than the right side
  5. the right ventricle only pumps blood to lungs
94
Q

why is the left side of the heart thicker than the writer

A

because the left ventricle pumps blood across the entire body, so it needs a thicker muscular wall to withstand high pressure

95
Q

what is a pacemaker

A

the natural resting heart rate controlled by a group of cells found in the right atrium

96
Q

what happens if your pacemaker stops working properly

A

doctors can implant an arrtificial pacemaker

97
Q

what is an artificial pacemaker

A

a small electrical devise use to correct any abnormalities in your heart

98
Q

what is the purpose of the coronary artery

A

to provide oxygen to the muscle cells of the heart

A

build larger molecules

103
Q

is respiration exothermic or endothermic reaction

A

exothermic

104
Q

why is respiration exothermic

A

because it releases energu

where does respiration continually take place

A

in living things

107
Q

where does aerovic respiration take place

A

in the mitachondria

108
Q

what is the word equation for aerobic respiration

A

glucose + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water + energy

109
Q

why does aerobic respiration releae a great deal of energy

A

this is because ggthe glucose molecule has been fully oxidised

110
Q

what os the symbol equation for aerobic respiration

A

C6H1206 + 602 + 6H20

111
Q

when do cells only carry out aerobic respiaration

A

if oxygen is present

112
Q

when do cell carry out anaaerobic respiration

A

when oxygen is not present

113
Q

what is the equation for anaerobic respiration in humans

A

glucose -> lactic acid

114
Q

when does anaerobic respiration onlu happen

A

if we cna’t get enougj oxygen to our tissues to keep up with the demands of the more efficient aerobic respiration

115
Q

how does anaerobic respiration release less energy than aerobic respiraation

A

because in anaerobic respiration, the oxidation of blucose in incomplete

116
Q

what is the equation for anaerobic respiratin in plant and yeast cells

A

glucose -> ethanol + carbon dioxide

117
Q

whatt is fermentation

A

anaerobic resooiration in yeast cells

118
Q

what can we use the equation for anaerobic respiration to make

A

alcholic drinks such as beer or use yeast to make bread

119
Q

co2 in anaerobic respiration in plants and yeast cells is useful, what happens that makes it useful

A

when co2 is produced, bubbles form in the dough, causing it to rise

120
Q

how can we measure how well the heart is working

A

cardiac output

121
Q

what is stroke volume

A

the volume of blood exxpelled out of the heart in one contraction
