Q

What is meant by denatured

A

When an active site loses its native shape and no longer works due to various different factors. The enzymes active site is no longer the shape it used to be.

Q

Describe the lock and key hypothesis

A

The enzyme is the lock and the substrate (large food molecule) is the key. The substrate fits into the enzymes active site
Only certain substrates will fit in certain enzymes. (Active sites shapes r complimentary) That’s why it is School, the locking key model.
The substrate binds with the enzyme. This is known as an enzyme substrate complex like a lock and key.
The substrate breaks down (bonds are broken) into a smaller soluble molecule .(products release)
The enzyme is not free to catalyse more reactions

23
Q

What is the function of the lungs and heart?

A

Heart-to pump blood thoughout body providing O removing CO. Double circulatory system.

Lungs-let you breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide

24
Q

Describe the heart structure and parts functions

A

Right ventricle-pumps blood to the lungs, where gas exchange takes place
Left ventricle -pumps blood around the rest of the body
Right atrium
Left atrium
Vena cava -returns deoxygenated blood from the body to the heart
Aorta-carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the rest of the body
Pulmonary artery-carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs
Pulmonary vein-carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart
Valves -open and shut to allow blood flow in One Direction
Pace makers-help control abnormal heart rhythms (group of cells) in right atrium.produce small electric impulses around 70bpm

Artificial can be put in if individual had an irregular heartbeat

Coronary arteries-supply oxygenated blood to the heart

Left side has really large muscle because right side only need to pump blood to the lungs which are close by, but the left pumps to the whole body

25
Describe the structure of arteries, veins and capillaries
Archeries-thick out of wall to withstand high pressure, narrow lumen because it carries blood under very high pressure from heart thick layer of muscles and elastic fibres to stretch easily to accommodate high pressure (oxygenated blood except pulmonary) Veins -fairly thin outer wall, large lumen because it carries blood under very low pressure to the heart thin layer of muscle and elastic fibres. Blood flows slowly thru them. Contains valves to make sure Laiba doesn’t flow backwards. (Deoxygenated blood except pulmonary vein). Capillaries. Join to form veins Capillaries -very small lumen so blood flows really slowly through them, giving more time for diffusion. Walls are one cell thick so that if you can take place efficiently and to ensure blood flows near all cells. arteries branch to capillaries. Take away waste and supply oxygen
26
Cardiac output stroke volume and heart rate triangle
Cardiac output (Cm cubed/min) ——————— Stroke volume. Heart rate Cm cubed X Bpm
27
Desceibe alveoli
have a high oxygen concentration inside them and a low oxygen concentration outside Surrounded by capillaries Have a low carbon dioxide concentration inside them and a high carbon dioxide concentration outside. So particles diffuse into alveoli Thin membrane to gases, diffuse easier and diffusion path is short Moist membrane is the rate of diffusion is faster Good blood supply to maintain concentration gradient for diffusion take place
28
What is blood and parts of it
Blood is a tissue consisting of plasma in which the red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets are suspended. Red blood cells -no nucleus to carry more oxygen-carries oxygen from the lungs to the body and CO2 from the body back to the lungs for respiration .Biconcave disk shape. Large surface area contains haemoglobin which pics up oxygen to form oxyhemoglobin. small and flexible feet in capillaries, thin, or short distance of diffusion. White blood cells -protect our bodies from sickness, help us, fight, virus, bacteria, allergies and cancer. Last one to 5 days and our bodies are always making more.immune system.phagocytes and lymphocytes Platelets -clotting wounds. No nucleus. Prevents micro organisms entering the wound. Plasma-carries the cells contained in blood. Pale straw coloured liquid. carries nutrients.
29
CHD
What is Winona Connery arteries that supply the oxygen rich blood to the heart become narrow and restrict blood flow. Caused by a buildup of fatty material (cholesterol) on the inside wall lining (atheroma). Reduce the supply oxygen to heart. No oxygen, which is certain parts of the heart mean in the cells are unable to respire aerobically, leading to cramping and tire (heart attack)
30
Risk factors and treatments
Risk- smoking, high blood pressure, too much salt or fat in diet,no exercise,diabetes,gender ,obesity,genetics Treatments-stents metal mesh tubes place in archery. Tiny balloon include to open up blood vessel and stent at same time the moon defeats and removed Leaving stent D-infection,allergic reaction,expensive , risk of heart attack during procedure, blood clots, can form A-not very invasive,emergency treatments low risk of heart attack, short recovery time Statin-medication to lower cholesterol levels by slowing the deposit of fatty material.

31
Define health
Health is a state of physical and mental well-being
32
What imporves health
Community Diet Exercise Genes
33
What can decrease health?
Diet Stress Life situations
34
What is a non-communicable disease
A disease which cannot be passed on from one person to another not contagious. last for a long time and get worse.
35
What is a communicable disease?
Infectious disease. Can be passed on from one person to another.
36
Which which factors lead to what diseases
Diet smoking on exercise on cardiovascular disease Obesity for type two diabetes Effects of alcohol on Liver and brain function Effect of smoking on lung disease and lung cancer Effect of smoking, an alcohol, an unborn babies Carcinogens and ultraviolet radiation fir cancer
37
What is cancer caused by and tumorus
Cells dividing uncontrollably-leads to lumps Benign tumours-slow,normally harmless, moles, warts. Circular,compact, non cancerous,dangerous if it damages an organ Malignant tumours-fast,aggressive,mobile Can spread,no fixed shape, invade neighbouring tissues. Difficult to treat, cancerous,create secondary tumours by invading healthy tissue. Fatal Melanoma tumours caused by uv radiation
38
Cancer cells
They stimulate the growth of their own blood supply to be supplied with oxygen and glucose respiration Malignant cells can detach and spread to start a secondary tumour Cancer cells are hard to treat the divide uncontrollably, and or a part of the body is tissue.cells DNA has been changed.can spread though whole body
39
What is translocation?
The movement of dissolved sugars made in photosynthesis from the leaves of the plant
40
What is transpiration?
Gradual release of water vapour from Leaves to continue the pull of water up to them from the soil (Water loss through evaporation/diffusion)
41
Part of the leaf
Cuticle-waxy layer Upper epidermis -covers plant-reduce water loss by evaporation Palisade Mesophyll-where photosynthesis happens-lots of chloroplasts-top of the leaf for light Spongy Mesophyll-air pockets for gas exchange in diffusion (efficient, diffusion of gases) Lower epidermis -covers Guard cells. Stomata -transpiration
42
How is a leaf adapted for diffusion?
Stomata allows gases to enter and leave the plant Can you message Hiba has a love a pocket making it easier for gases to diffuse through them as there is a large surface area and a lot of holes Thin leaves, give us a thin membrane for diffusion Stomata only at bottom of leaf -to prevent water loss. If you was at the top, it would be in direct sunlight. Increasing amount of water loss allows gases diffuse in and out was not losing too much water as the bottom of the leaf is cooler than the top
43
Xylem and phloem
Xylem-transports water and mineral ions from roots to stem and leaves-one way only.thick walls. No end walls between cells.dead cells,hollow, strengthened with lignin,hole down middle Phloem-moves ,food substances produced by photosynthesis from leaf to roots,needed for growth 2 way flow,end walls between cells,sieve plates,living cells
44
Factors that affect the rate of transpiration
Light intensity-bright light- stomata open wider to let more co2 in. More water leaves .more like photosynthesis, more water needed, bringing up-more transpiration Temperature-high temp-rate of reaction more faster-more transpiration-particles have more energy-more water molecules evaporate from all surfaces rate of diffusion increses Wind (air movement)-more wind, if air flow is bad,water vapour surrounds the leaf-high conc outside and inside-diffusion dosent happen fast. Good air flow-water vapour swept away from lead-low conc outside-more diffusion- more transpiration Humidity -high humidity-water struggles to leave leave cause high concentration of water outside leaf-less steep conc gradient-slower diffusion-lower transpiration (DRIER THE AIR-FASTER TRANSPIRATION)
45
Required practical-investigating effect of pH on rate of reaction-anylase
Breaks down starch to glucose Starch detected by iodine Buffer solution produce particular, pH Put a drop of iodine solution into well of spotting tile Please Bunsen burner on heat with my with tripod and gauze over Put beaker of water on top and heat water until 35 Using to range and 1 cm³ of amylase solution and 1 cm³ a buffer solution with a pH 5 to boiling tube Wait, five minutes Use different, the range and 5 cm³ of starch to boiling tube Mix content and start stopwatch Record how long it takes for amylase to breakdown starch dropping prepare every 10 seconds Repeat the different pH values Control -concentration and volume of amylase, temp
46
What does smaller soluble mean?
It can pass easily through digestive walls into blood
47
Exchange surfaces-alveoli
The lungs contain millions of alveoli (microscopic air sacks) The blood consists of CO2 and very little oxygen Oxygen diffuses out of alveoli, in to ( low concentration) and CO2 moves in Oxygen diffuses out of blood to cell (low concentration) and CO2 move out
48
Faulty valves
They can be weakened by age, infection or heart attack Valves won’t open properly or leak Blood can’t circulate effectively Biological -taken from humans/animals Works very well Only last 12 to 15 years People don’t animals put in them Mechanical -man-made Longer-lasting Blood clot Unethical Artificial blood -after extreme blood loss, salt solution, keep people alive even if they lose 2/3 of red blood cells gives time for red blood cells to make new ones
49
Risk factors of the noncommunicable diseases
Cardiovascular disease Diet rich in cholesterol Smoking damages artery walls Lack of exercise, lower blood pressure Type two diabetes Obesity affect metabolism Fat molecules release into the blood Liver and brain function Alcohol-causes fatty liver Damaged nerve cells in the brain Lung disease and cancer Damaged cells in Long lining Damages artery walls Pregnancy Smoking and drinking alcohol damaging affects an unborn child Cancer Carcinogens ionising radiation
50
Lifestyle risk factors for cancer
Smoking Lung, mouth, bowel, stomach and cervical Obesity Bowel live and kidney UV exposure Skin, cancer and sunbeds Sunny climate, more risk Viral infections Liver cancer Unprotected intercourse/needles HPV -cervical Genetic factors Faulty genes Increase likelihood of cancer
51
What is a physical process?
A process which doesn’t require energy
52
Describe the process of transporation
Water evaporates from the leaves, and diffuses out of stomata Continuous transpiration stream (Transpiration is side-effect of the way leaves, adapted for photosynthesis-more water inside and out) Water in through roots Water escapes via stomata
53
Stomata
When the plant has lots of water Guard cells go turgid and plump (filled with water) Stomata open Gases exchange for photosynthesis When plant is short on water Call cells lose water and become flaccid (lacking stiffness) Stomata closes Less transpiration Sensitive to light Close at night -save water More on the underside -shaded and cooler-less water loss
