anaerobic is faster but it releases less energy (without oxygen)
the word equation for anaerobic respiration is glucose --> lactic acid + energy
the word equation for respiration is glucose + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water + energy
air enters your body through your nose and mouth
air moves down the trachea
air moves down a bronchus
air moves through a bronchiole
air moves into an alveolus
oxygen then diffuses into the blood
lustrous - all metals are shiny when polished or freshly cut
flexible - metals do not break, they bend
ductile - metals can be drawn into wires
malleable - metals can be hammered into sheets
electrical conductor - all metals conduct electricity
thermal conductor - metals allow energy to flow through them, causing heating
metal + oxygen --> metal oxide
metal + water --> metal hydroxide + hydrogen
corrosion is the process where something is slowlydamaged by a chemical process (refers to any reaction with oxygen on the surface of a metal)
oxidation is the loss of electrons/gaining oxygen
rusting is when iron reacts with oxygen to form iron oxide (oxygen and water must be both present)
ways of preventing rust:
coat with oil/ grease
coat with layers of paint
coat with plastic
galvanize with zinc
use sacrificialprotection (place a more reactive metal with iron)
metal + acid --> metal salt + hydrogen (nitric acid=nitrate, sulphuric acid=sulphate, hydrochloric acid=chloride)
metals placed in the most to least reactive metals are
potassium
sodium
calcium
magnesium
aluminium
zinc
iron
tin
lead
copper
carbohydrates - function is for energy
proteins - function is for growth and repair
fats - function is to store energy
vitamins/minerals - to keep the body healthy
we need water to dissolve things so they can go around the body, fill up cells to hold their shape and to make sweat - keep you cool
we need fibre to help waste move through the intestines smoothly (avoid constipation)
digestive system
mouth - food is ground up here and mixed with saliva
gullet - takes food to the stomach
stomach - food is churned up with strong acids and enzymes
small intestine - more enzymes added to complete digestion, soluble food is absorbed
large intestine - water is absorbed here
rectum - faeces are stored here
the small intestine adapted to its functions with a long (large surface area), lined with villi (making surface area larger), thin (easy for diffusion) and good blood supply for diffusion.
an element is made from only one type of atom
a compound is 2 or more elements chemically bonded
a mixture contains 2 or more differentelements or compounds that are mixed but not chemically bonded to each other
