  • Deoxygenated blood flows into the right atrium and then to the right ventricle
  • Oxygenated blood flows into the left atrium , then left ventricle
  • Valves make sure that backwards flow doesn't happen
  • Process of blood through the heart.
    1. Blood flows to right atrium from vena cava - left atrium from pulmonary vain
    2. Atria contracts flowing blood into ventricles
    3. Ventricles then contract pushing blood from right ventricle into the Pulmonary artery for the lungs - Left ventricle to aorta for the body
  • Arteries carry blood away from the heart
  • Veins carry blood towards heart
  • Capillaries have one cell thick walls
  • Plasma carries components in the blood
  • Red blood cells have no nucleus and are biconcave for more surface area
  • Antitoxins produce antibodies against microorganisms
  • Phagocytosis - the process of engulfing and digesting foreign particles
  • Platelets help blood clot and have no nucleus
  • Epidermal tissue helps reduce water loss as it has a waxy cuticle that prevents water from moving out
  • Palisade Mesophyll - contains lots of chloroplasts for photosynthesis and is found under the Epidermal Tissue
  • Spongy Mesophyll have air spaces that allow gases to diffuse in and out of the leaf
  • Transpiration - movement of water
  • Translocation - movement of food substances
  • Xylem is made out of dead cells and carries water up
  • Phloem have sieve plates and can carry nutrients up and down the plant
  • High Temperature makes transpiration faster
  • High Humidity makes Transpiration slower as it decreases concentration gradient
  • High air flow makes rate of transpiration higher
  • Higher Light intensity makes Transpiration faster as it makes photosynthesis faster
  • Bile is produced in liver and Gal bladder
  • Bile is released into small intestine
  • Bile neutralises hydrochloric acid
  • Bile emulsifies drops of fat to create more surface area
  • Test for sugars - Benedict + food - from blue to brick red
  • Test for Starch - Iodine + food - Red to black-blue
  • Test for protein - Biuret + food - turns purple if protein present
  • Test for lipids - Ethanol + food - makes cloudy white layer
