Q

what is the relation between enzymes in commercial baby food.

A

Babies can have a hard time digesting high protein foods, so enzymes are added to their food to aid in digestion by turning the proteins into amino acids.

Q

describe a muscle tissue

A
  • a muscle is a contractile tissue that brings about movement
    -it has the special ability to relax and contract to produce movement
    -muscle tissue is highly cellular and is well supplied with blood vessels

16
Q

CAPILLARIES

A

where substances diffuse, for example in the lungs with oxygen and blood

super narrow lumen & super thin walls

inelastic

super low blood pressure

17
Q

ARTERIES

A

carry blood away from the heart

narrow lumen but thick boi walls

elastic

very high blood pressure

18
Q

VEINS

A

carry blood to the heart

large lumen

less elastic & thin walls

lower blood pressure

19
Q

VALVES

A

prevents blood from flowing backward

20
Q

what are the parts of a leaf

A

cuticle, epidermis, palisade mesophyll, spongy mesophyll, lower epidermis, stoma

21
Q

cuticle function

A

cuticles prevent water loss

22
Q

epidermis

A

thin to let light in to the chloroplasts

23
Q

palisade mesophyll

A

has a lot of chloroplasts to absorb the light

24
Q

spongy mesophyll

A

has spaces of air to let carbon dioxide diffuse through the structure

25
Q

stoma

A

holes in the leaf that let carbon oxygen in and diffuse oxygen out

26
Q

guard cells

A

opens and closes the holes to prevent water loss

27
Q

female reproductive parts of a flower

A

the pistil is the entire reproductive part

stigma (where the pollen attaches)

style (a long tube to the ovary bellow)

ovary (produces eggs)
ovule (the eggs)

28
Q

male reproductive parts of a flower

A

anther (produces pollen)

filament (supports the anther)

29
Q

differentiate between antiseptics and disinfectants

A

antiseptics
- to be used on living things and the body
- safe to use/ will not harm living tissues
-for cuts and open wounds
-kills microorganisms or prevents their growth

disinfectants:
-to be used on non-living things
-can be harmful and more toxic than antiseptic
-for toilet bowls, door knobs, etc
-destroys microorganisms

30
Q

name the types of adaptations in animals

A

structural adaptations ( a feature of the body)
e.g. temperature regulation, poison release

physiological adaptations (a bodily process)
e.g. bills and claws

behavioural adaptations.
e.g. hibernation, learned behavior

31
Q

how to prevent the risk of antibiotic resistant bacteria developing?

A
  • take your medicine properly, as prescribed and instructed from a medical professional
  • complete the full course of medicine without fail
  • practice good hygiene such as handwashing
32
Q

how can you control the spread of infections is hospitals

A
  • practice good hygiene

-wearing personal protective equipment

-appropriate handling and disposal of used medical instruments

-aseptic techniques, for example dressing wounds (prevention)

-appropriate sterilization of instruments

-

33
Q

differentiate between biotic and abiotic components of an ecosystem

A

Biotic factors are living things within an ecosystem; such as plants, animals, and bacteria, while abiotic are non-living components; such as water, soil and atmosphere.

34
Q

what is a seed bank?

A

seed banks are places used to store seeds to ensure biodiversity in the future, and that we will have resources to tap into when necessary.

-crop diversity
-climate change
-natural disaster
-provides material for research
-preservation from man made disasters.
