1 of 72
Three ways a pathogen can damage a cell?
Rupture host cell, use cell nutrients, replicate in side causing a burst

An enzyme - hydrolyses protons into smaller chains
7 of 72
Two main parts of the small intestine?
Duodenum and ileum
8 of 72
What happens in the duodenum?
Alkaline bile and pancreatic juice neutralise acidity of bile, break down further
9 of 72
What happens in the ileum
Soluble molecules absorbed through structures called villi that line the gut
10 of 72
What does the large intestine absorb?

12 of 72
What's the point of glands?

Test for reducing sugars?
Benedictus (turns red)
19 of 72
What does iodine test for?
Starch
20 of 72
Where are proteins synthesised?
Ribosomes
21 of 72
What are lysosomes used for?
Digesting invading cells, break down worn out components of a cell
22 of 72
What is SER?
Synthesises and process lipids
23 of 72
What is RER used for?
Folds and process proteins (made by ribosomes)
24 of 72
What processes and packages proteins and lipids?
Golgi apparatus
25 of 72
Here are micro villi found?
Plasma membrane
26 of 72
What electron microscope has a better resolution?
Transmission electron microscope
27 of 72
Which microscope can scan thick specimens?
Scanning electron microscope
28 of 72
Whats the process called where organelles are separated
Ultracentrifugation
29 of 72
what is a SER role?
synthesise and process lipids
30 of 72
What are RERS used for?
folds and processes lipids
31 of 72
Where are digesting enzymes kept? ones that digest invading cells
Lysosomes
32 of 72
What processes and packages new lipids and protiens?
Golgi apperatus
33 of 72
What are the folds in the plasma membrane called?
microvillii
34 of 72
What are membranes composed of?
lipids, protiens, carbs
35 of 72
at reactions forms tryglycerides? (adding glycerol to fatty acids)
condensation
36 of 72
saturated fats, double or single bonded?
single
37 of 72
how do phospholipids differ from triglycerides?
fatty acid replaced with a phosphate group (hydrophillic)
38 of 72
What test is used for lipids?
Emulsion (+alcohol - turn milky)
39 of 72
what does facilitated diffusion use?
carrier proteins and protein channels
40 of 72
Whats is failitated diffusion?
to help large molecules go through membranes
41 of 72
hats involved in active transport as well as facilitated diffusion?
carrier proteins
42 of 72
What do co-transporters do?
bind two molecules together, allowing the conc gradient of one molecule to help move another against is conc grad
43 of 72
how does glucose diffuse across the intestinal epithelium into the blood?
carbs broken down - high conc of glucose in small intestine - so moves via epithelial cells into blood
44 of 72
how else does the remaining glucose enter the intestinal epithelium?
active transport
45 of 72
membrane properties?
barrier against water soluable molecules, controls entrance, allow cell communication
46 of 72
What is a procaryotic cell?
small, eg. batceria (cause cholera)
47 of 72
What does the cholera toxin effect?
Chloride exchange of ions
48 of 72
at does ORS contain?
sugar and salts
49 of 72
when breathing in what two things contract?
intercostal and diaphram muscles
50 of 72
where does gas exchange happen in humans
alveoli
51 of 72
why is it benefical to have many alveoli than few
larger surface area - thin walls too!
52 of 72
what is the equation for pulmonary ventilation?
tidal volume x ventilation rate
53 of 72
what does tb do?
biuld a wall around bacteria in lungs, killing tussue - gas exchange surface damaged
54 of 72
what 3 affect lung function?
ffibrosis, asthma, emphysema
55 of 72
what does fibrosis do to the lungs?
increase scar tissue, making lung tissue less elastic
56 of 72
what happens during asthma?
bronchiole muscle contracts - large mucus to be produced - constricting airways
57 of 72
what disease causes inflammation and attracts phaocytes to the alveoli (breaking elastin)
emphysema
58 of 72
What side of the heart is deoxygenated blood?
Right
59 of 72
why is the right ventricle wall thicker?
giving more pressure so blood can go round the body
60 of 72
hat is the point in the semi-lunar valves?
stop blood flowing back into the heart after contraction
61 of 72
what does mygenic mean (heart)?
contract and relax continuously
62 of 72
What does the SAN do?
sets a rhythm for heart beat, waves of electrical activity to atrial walls
63 of 72
whats the cardiac output equation?
stroke volume x heart rate
64 of 72
what are the 3 stages of cardiac cycle?
ventricle relax, atria contracts - ventricles contract, atria relax - both relax
65 of 72
what is the plaque made of wbc and lipids called? (clogs up arteries)
atheromoa
66 of 72
what disease causes a balloon like swelling due to narrow artieries?
anerysm
67 of 72
what is thrombosis?
atheroma rupture inner wall (endothelium) damaging artery wall, platelets and fibrin cause a blood clots
68 of 72
what is it called when blood flow is interrupted from flowing to the heart
myocardial infarction
69 of 72
how does high blood cholesterol increase the risk of CHD?
increases the chances of fatty deposits - atheromas- increasing blood pressure
70 of 72
ow does the carbon monoxide and nicotine contribute to CHD?
CO combines with haemoglobin - less room for O2, reduces anti oxidents in cells making cell damage more likey
71 of 72
why is high blood pressure so dangerous for the heart?
increase risk of damaged walls - atheroma formation - blood clotting - mycardial infarction
