Causes of emphysema
smoking, air pollution
4 of 44
Effects of emphysema
shortness of breath, wheezing
5 of 44
How does bile assist digestion of fats
Neutralises stomach acid, turns large fat droplets into lost of small soluble droplets
6 of 44
Osmosis Definition
Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane, from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration
7 of 44
Bile Duct
A tube where the bile is passed through into the small intestine
8 of 44
Cilia
Sweeps mucus containing dust and dirt to remove it from the respiratory tract
9 of 44
3 Enzymes
Lipase, Carbohydrase, Protease
10 of 44
Word Equation for photosynthesis
Carbon Dioxide + Water -------> Glucose + Oxygen
11 of 44
Pyramids of numbers/biomass
- Number = Not always pyramid shaped - Biomass = Always pyramid shaped
12 of 44
6 Parts of the heart
- Left Atrium - Left Ventricle - Right Atrium - Right ventricle - Bicuspid Valve - Semi Lunar Valve
13 of 44
Why is the Left Ventricle wall thicker than the right?
It pumps blood out to the body
14 of 44
What are the valves for?
To stop the back flow of blood
15 of 44
What is the heart made of?
Cardiac Muscle
16 of 44
Food Webs - Types Of Eaters
Herbivore = Plant Eaters Carnivore = Meat Eaters Omnivores = Plant and Meat Eaters
17 of 44
Reasons for energy loss in a food chains
- Small percentage of light reaches green plants - Some energy lost in waste materials - Drop in energy accounts for decrease in consumers
18 of 44
Limiting Factors [TLC]
- Temperature - Light Intensity - Carbon Dioxide Concentration
19 of 44
Definitions - Aerobic and anaerobic respiration
Aerobic Respiration = Respiring with oxygen Anaerobic Respiration = Shortage/no oxygen
20 of 44
Oxygen Debt
Oxygen Debt = Lactic Acid + Oxygen -----> Carbon Dioxide + Water
21 of 44
Uses of glucose made in photosynthesis
- Celluose - Respiration - Oils - Proteins - Starch
22 of 44
Mitochondria, Where? Why? How?
Where? = In the cytoplasm Why? = Supply energy How? = Reaction between glucose and oxygen
23 of 44
3 essential plant minerals
- Nitrates - Phosphates - Potassium
24 of 44
Respiration Word Equations Aerobic (Opposite of Photosynthesis)
Aerobic = Glucose + Oxygen ------> Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP
25 of 44
Respiration Word Equations Anaerobic
Anaerobic = Glucose ------> Lactic Acid + ATP
26 of 44
Double Blood Circulation, 2 types
Systemic = Blood to all organs apart from lungs Pulmonary = Blood to lungs
27 of 44
Parts of an animal cell
- Cell Membrane - Nucleus - Cytoplasm
28 of 44
Parts of a Plant Cell
- Cell Membrane - Nucleus - Cytoplasm - Chloroplasts - Vacuole - Cell Wall
29 of 44
Organs of the digestive system, Name 5
- Pancreas - Oesophagus - Stomach - Large Intestine - Small Intestine - Bile Duct - Gall Bladder - Liver - Mouth - Salivary Glands
30 of 44
What is the difference? Fertiliser and Pesticide
Fertiliser = To feed plants extra essential minerals Pesticide = To kill pests that may destroy plants
31 of 44
What is the cause of an Atheroma? and what could it do?
A build up of fats in an artery which can result in death
32 of 44
2 Differences between light microscopes and electron microscopes
Light microscope - used to view human tissue. Electron Microscope - used to view dead cells only
33 of 44
What is risking tubing and what is its purpose?
It is a semi permeable membrane. The purpose is for it to demonstrate the process of osmosis
34 of 44
Osmosis Definition
The diffusion of water, through a semi permeable membrane, from a high water concentration to a low water concentration
35 of 44
Why do red blood cells swell up and burst in pure water?
They have a lower water concentration, so it keeps absorbing water but it cannot diffuse it
36 of 44
List the parts through which air travels to reach the alveoli
Trachea, Bronchi, Bronchioles and alveoli
37 of 44
What are the movements of the ribs and diaphragm when breathing in?
Ribs - In and out. Diaphragm - Flattens
38 of 44
2 features of the alveoli that enables gaseous exchange
Semi Permeable Membrane and the blood vessels called capillaries are wrapped round each alveoli
39 of 44
What is the difference between emphysema and lung cancer
Emphysema causes the walls of the alveoli to break down and lung cancer grows a tumour which could block the airways
40 of 44
Enzyme Definition
A biological catalyst. They can be affected by temperature and pH. When affected, the activated site becomes denatured
41 of 44
2 differences of red and white blood cells
Red blood cells have a nucleus and white blood cells attack/fight germs
42 of 44
Why are capillaries important in the human body?
They are important because they are one cell thick which lets substances diffuse through them.
43 of 44
How do you remove chlorophyll from a leaf?
1) Put in boiling water to kill leaf. 2) Put test tube of ethanol in hot water bath with leaf in. 3) Put leaf back into warm water to soften. 5) Put leaf on a spotting tile and put a few drops of iodine on it.
