whats cancer
uncontrolled cell division
benign tumour
tumour grows until no more room. doesnt spread. doesnt invade other tissues in body.
malignant tumour
tumor grows and spreads to nearby healthy tissues
can also travel to other parts of body via bloodstream
they then invade tissues and form secondary tumours.
which tumour type is cancer
malignant
cancer risk factors
smoking
obesity
uv exposure
viral infection
genetics
adaptations of le guard cells
when plant has lots of water, guard cells go plump and turgid. stomata open so gases can be echanged for photosynthesis
when short of water, guard cell lose water and become flaccid and close to stop water vapour escaping
then outer walls and thick inner walls make opening and closing work
sensitive to light - close at light to save water without losing out on photosynthesis
kidney shaped to open and close stomata
more stomata on underside of leaf as its shaded and cooler so less water lost
stents avatage
effective for long time
recovery time from surgery is quick
lower risk of heart attack
stents disavantage
risk of complications during operation
risk of infection from surgery
risk of thrombosis - blood clot near the stent
statin avatage
reduce ldl cholesterol in blood
increase amount of hdl cholsterol
can also prevent some other diseases
easy to take
statin disvantge
must be taken regularly for the rest of your life. risk someone forgets
could cause engative side effects
not instant effect
artificial heart used for
use until donor heart can be found or help person recover by letting heart rest and heal
some cases permanent fix
avantage le artificiel heart
wont be rejected by body
disavantage heart de artificiales
surgey can lead to infection n bleeding
dont work as well as normal hearts
could wear out, electrical motor could fail
could cause blood clots leading to strokes
drugs needed to be taken to thin blood which can cause problems if they get injured
faulty heart valves
valves can be damaged by heart attack infection or old age
damage can cause valve tissue to stiffen so it wont open properly or it leaks and allows backflow of blood
where can replacement valves be soirced from
humans or other mammals e.g cows pigs
or can be mechanical valves
risk of artificla valve
blood clots
artificial bloooooood
is a blood substitute eg salt solution
used to replace lost volume of blood
rate blood flowww
volume of blood/ number of minutes
breating rateeee
number of breaths/number of mins
