Q

Why is there a constant Transpiration stream?

A

Water escapes the leaves by diffusion and so needs to be constantly replenished by the roots

23
Q

What are the Four Main things affecting transpiration rate

A

Light intensity
Humidity
Air Flow
Temperature

24
Q

What is the Structure of guard cells?

A

Thin outer walls and thick inner walls
Adapted for gas exchange

25
What are Platelets?
Small fragments of cells that allow blood to clot at a wound to stop blood pouring out
26
What is Plasma?
A liquid that carries everything
27
What does Plasma carry?
Platelets CO2 Urea Hormones Red and White blood cells Proteins Antibodies and Antitoxins
28
Physical defence for Plants
Thick bark Cellulose Leaves are covered in Cuticle
29
Chemical defence for plants
Produce enzymes Stinging cells and trichomes (stinging hairs)
30
Types of Plant Pathogen
Rice blast fungus (causes decay)
31
Types of Plant pathogen
Tobacco mosaic virus (discolouration)
32
Types of plant pathogen
Mealybugs (Stunted growth)
33
What is a vaccine?
Injecting small amounts of dead or weakend pathogen so your body produces antibodies
34
2 Pros of Vaccination
Control lots of communicable diseases that were once common (polio, measles, smallpox) Epidemics are prevented
35
2 cons of Vaccination
Don’t always work Some can have a bad reaction (fever or seizure)
36
Why are red blood cells bio concave?
So that they can supply more oxygen
37
What binds to oxygen in red blood cells?
Haemoglobin
38
Painkiller that comes from Willow
Aspirin
39
Digitalis comes from a chemical found in
Foxgloves
40
What is Benign?
The Tumour stays in one place and is not cancerous
41
What is Malignant?
When the tumour grows and spreads to healthy tissues Is cancerous
42
Pros of Artificial heart
Less chance rejected by the body Temporary Pumps blood
43
Cons of Artificial heart
Don’t work as well Can cause blood clots because blood doesn’t run as smooth
44
If Proteins are present
Blue to Purple
45
Bile
Produce in the Liver Stored in the gall bladder Released into the small intestines
46
What does Bile do?
Neutralises the acid so enzymes can work best
47
Emulsifies fats
Breaks down fat into ting droplets so there is a larger surface area for the lipase to work on
48
Parts of the Vein
Thin Walls Large Lumen Valves
49
Parts of the Artery
Thick walls - muscle and elastic fibres Small lumen
50
Parts of the Capillaries
I cell thick Small lumen Permeable walls
51
Where is Amylase made?
Salivary glands Pancreas Small intestine
52
Where is Protease made?
Stomach (where it’s called pepsin) Pancreas Small intestine
53
Where is Lipase made?
Pancreas Small intestine
54
What is Mitosis?
Mitosis is when the cells divides
