Q

Diastole

A

The heart filling with blood

16
Q

The heart

A
Aorta
Pulmonary artery
Vena cava
pulmonary vein
Heart wall
17
Q

Aorta

A

Oxygenated blood around the body

18
Q

Pulmonary vein

A

Brings oxygenated blood from the lungs

19
Q

Heart wall

A

Thicker on left, to pump blood around the body

20
Q

Blood components

A
Plasma
Red blood cells
White blood cells
Platelets
Diffusion
Blood clotting
21
Q

Plasma

A

Transports dissolved food molecules, carbon dioxide, urea, blood cells.
Mainly water

22
Q

Red blood cells

A

Haemoglobin, transports oxygen due to bi concave

23
Q

White blood cells

A

Defend the body against microbes

phagocytes and memory lymphocytes

24
Phagocytes
Engulf pathogens
25
Memory lymphocytes
Give us immunity
26
Platelets
Help clot the blood
27
Diffusion
Allows substances to move between blood and cells
28
Blood clotting steps
``` Injury Platelets arrive Calcium ions present Thrombin formed which acts as fibrinogen Turns it to fibrin ```
29
Lymphocytes
Make antibodies to stick to pathogens (easier to swallow)
30
Antibodies
Act as labels, pathogen now more recognisable Bacterial cells burst open Neutralises toxins produced by the bacteria
31
Vaccination
A weakened/dead version of the pathogen
32
Blood leaving the glomerulus
Low in glucose/water/amino acids/urea/ions
