what does the pulmonary artery do?
carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to lungs
19 of 72
is it true that the vein has a thick elasticated wall?
no its false, the arteries have them
20 of 72
what are the three steps when the heart takes a beat?
1. heart relaxes when blood goes to atria and veins. the antriventricular valves open. 2. the atria contracts to push blood into ventricles. 3.ventricles then contract pushing blood into arteries. the semilunar valves open to allow this whilst atric
21 of 72
where can you measure pulse rate?
your neck, wrist, ear or temple + counting number of pulses in a minutes
22 of 72
what is the heart beat controlled by? what do they produce?
a set of cells called the pacemaker cells, small electrical impulses whch stimulate the heart to contract
23 of 72
why does the heart rate speed up during exercise?
the mucles need more oxygen so thr heart beats faster to supply oxygen and glucose to the body
24 of 72
how can an irregular heart be corrected?
an artificial pacemaker
25 of 72
what can be done if the coronary arteries that supply the heart with oxygen and glucose become blocked by fat?
bypass surgery which is taking vessels rom your leg and replacing the blocked ones in the heart
26 of 72
what does the hole in the heart cause and how can iit be fixed?
a hole in the heart means oxygenated blood and deoxygenated blood mixes. it normally happens at birth and closes up natturally, if not you can have surgery to close it up.
27 of 72
what are the risks of getting a donor heart if you heart does nit repair?
a major, expensive operation. must be from a dead donor. a long waiting lost for suitable donor. the patient will be on drugs for the rest of their lives
28 of 72
what are blood clots and why do they happen?
blood clots happen to close a wound so that you dont bleed to death. platelets gather and clump together to form a scab

what is the pressureof your chest when breathing changed by?
the intercostal muscles and the diaphram
38 of 72
what is inspiration?
when you breathe in and the intercostal muscles contract and the diaphram flattens
39 of 72
what is expiration?
when you breath out the intercostal muscles relax and the diaphram also relaxes
40 of 72
what is tidal air, residual air and vital capcity?
tidal air is the air you can take in a normal breath. residual air is the air that stays in the lungs when you breathe out. and vital capacity is when you take in as much air as possible
41 of 72
how does gas exchange work in terms of the aveoli?
CO2 diffuses into aveoli, avioli then diffuses new oxygen into the bloodstream.
42 of 72
how is the aveoli adapted for gas exchange?
a big surface area, moist thing permable surface and excellent blood supply
43 of 72
what are the two ways of protecting the circlatory system against disease?

61 of 72
how can fertility be controlled in humans and how does it work?
contraceptive pills and they work by copying pregnancy and stopping the release of FSH
62 of 72
what can infertility be caused by?
blocked fallopian tubes or sperm ducts, eggs not being made or being released from ovaries, no fertile sperm
63 of 72
what are some methods that can help infertility?
FSH being injected into woman to ripen eggs, artificial insemiation when spem is directly put into uterus, IVF when sperm and eggs mixed outside body, surrogacy when someone else has the embryo of child in them
64 of 72
what is an amniocentesis? what is a hypodermic needle?
analyse cells from embryo from amniotic fluid. injected into the into the amniotic fluid to check for downs or any other chromosome abnormilities.
65 of 72
where do donated organs usuallt come from? what could be a problem with thhis?
dead donars but sometime the family dont believe in it so they are taken off the register and their organs arent donated.
66 of 72

infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood, old age
67 of 72
how can you meausure human growth?
mass or heigt
68 of 72
what factors can affect human growth?
your genes, diet, amount of exercise, amount of growth hormone, how healthy you are, hormones, dieseases/conditions
69 of 72
why is diet and exercise important?
contains protein for muscle growth and calcium and vitamin d for bone growth. exercise normally increases muscle growth and makes bones more dense
70 of 72
What are the problems asociated with living longer?
arthiritus, cancer, difficult to live by themselves, pensioners live on low income,
71 of 72

For Students doing the new 9-1 Sciences (i.e. exams in 2018+), this might be B3 for you guys because our teacher gave us stuff from your science syllabus that included info from our B5 (2017 exam prep), but it was categorised under your B3 (with other stuff), just so you guys know.
