Healthy living Flashcards
Which are the functions of the skeleton?
To support the body
To protect some of the vital organs of the body
To help the body move
To make blood cells
Name the most important bones in the body
Fibula, tibia, femur, radius, ulna, humerus, scapula, clavicle, skull (cranium), phalanges, ribs and sternum
Know the names of some importantes joints
Hip
Elbow
Shoulder
Knee
Know which are the different types of joints and describe them
Ball socket joint➡️synovial joint. Ball-shaped surface of one rounded bone fits into the cup-like depression of another bone. Hinge joint➡️synovial joint. A hinge joint is a common class of synovial joint that includes the ankle, elbow, and knee joints. Hinge joints are formed between two or more bones where the bones can only move along one axis to flex or extend.
Know which are the different types of joints and describe them
Immovable: can’t move=skull
Slightly movible: moves in some axes=elbow
Freely movible: can move to any direction=shoulder
What do cartilage, tendons and ligaments do?
Cartilage: reduces friction
Tendons: join bone and a muscle
Ligament: joint two bones
What does antagonistic is?
Two muscles which are next to each other and they act the opposite, when one contracts ( fatter and shorter ) the other relaxes ( thinner and larger )
An example would be the biceps and triceps
How to safely, carry out a chicken dissection
Wear safety glasses
Wash your hands after the experiment
Put alcohol on the table where the experiment has been done
To don’t cut yours le with the scalpel just lean your finger nail on it
Don’t put your fingers in your mouth or eyes, the skin chicken can have salmonela
What means to be fit?
Being fit ultimately refers to your own optimal health and overall well being. Fitness pertains to all aspects of your life – physical, emotional and mental.
Which are the 4 s fitness?
Strength: A strong person has lots cell muscles. They burn lots of energy=fuerte
Suppleness: A flexible ( bendy ) person doesn’t burns so much energy=flexible
Speed: Release a lot of energy very fast with the process of respiration=velocidad
Stamina: Can stay a long period of time moving your muscles=resistente
Exercise affects pulse and breathing rate
When we do exercise we take air and release CO2 faster, so we need more blood in our body for it to get oxygen that will get released as carbon dioxide. We make the process of respiration faster so we can respire aerobically and contract the muscles
Muscles release energy from food using aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration
The formulae of aerobic respiration is:
GLUCOSE+O2=CO2+WATER
The formulae of anaerobic respiration is:
GLUCOSE=LACTIC ACID+ENERGY
Which is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic respiration contains O2 and anaerobic doesn’t.
Aerobic produces more energy and CO2 and water, anaerobic doesn’t.
Anaerobic respiration produces lactic acid and aerobic doesn’t
How the lungs are adapted to their job
The lungs are adapted to their job because they have tiny hairs called cilia that produce mucus which cleans all the bad bacteria that enter into our lungs and the cilia sweeps all the dirty mucus out . The capillaries in the alveolus are one cell thick. The gas exchange takes place in alveoli capillaries and large surface area. Diffusion is the process of exchanges air.
What happenes to the diaghram and the muscles when we inhale?
When we inhale, our intercoastal muscles and diaphragm contract.
The ribs move upwards and out.
The diaghram moves down increasing the volume of the chest cavity increases.
The air moves down the trachea to fill the lungs.
