37
What is the respiratory system?
It is a set of organs and tissues that help you bring air into and out of your body
38
How does oxygen reach our blood from the air?
Air goes through the noes and mouth into the trachea then down into the bronchus (bronci) and then into the bronchioles. At the ends of the bronchioles are tiny sacks of air called alveoli. From the alveoli oxygen diffuses into the blood.
39
What is gas exchange?
This is where oxygen is exchanged with carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a waste product that needs to be removed from our bodies.
40
How do we break down and absorbe food.
Large molecules are broken down into smaller molecules of nutrients.
41
What is the structure that food travels through to be digested?
The structure that food travels through to be digested is the gut.
Parts of the gut are the mouth, gullet, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, anus.
42
Does the food travel though the gut with ease?
No, it tries to oppose it but the force acting on the food forces it through.
43
What happens to the food in the stomach with digestion?
In the stomach food is mixed with acid and digestive juices.
44
What happens in the small intestine with digestion?
Small molecules of nutrients are absorbed into the blood stream.
45
What happens in the large intestines with digestion?
Water is absorbed into the body
46
Wha happens in the mouth with digestion?
Food is chewed and mixed with saliva
47
What happens in the rectum with digestion?
Faeces are stored until they pass out the body.
48
What are the adaptions the small intestines have made to its function of absorbing nutrients?
The small intestines create villi which stick out of the wall and give it a big surface area, they also carrie blood capillaries which carry away food molecules.
49
Explain why it is good to eat a fibre rich diet?
The fibre prevents constipation.
50
The large molecules of food are insoluble which means they dissolve in water but they need to be small and soluble to pass through the lining of the large intestine

In a chemical reaction the total mas of the reactant is equal to the total mass of the product. Mass can only be transferred NOT CREATED OR DESTROYED
What is this key term called
The conservation of mass
90

An endothermic reaction is a reaction that takes in energy usually as heat, it transfers energy from he surroundings.
This also means that the temperature of the SURROUNDINGS DECREASE
91

97
Why is activation energy important in a reaction
Every reaction needs a little bit of energy (like a spark) to get started, this called activation energy
98
What is the definition of the conservation of mass
In a chemical reaction, the total mass of a product must be equal to the total mass of the reactant.
99

Respiration is an exothermic reaction
103

This is when the body cannot supply the cells with oxygen needed to break down glucose, this is when the body has to Carrie out anaerobic respiration
104
What does aerobic respiration have that anaerobic does not?
Arebic respiration has oxygen in the reactant and carbon dioxide in the product but anaerobic respiration just has gluecose in the reactant and no oxygen

Used for protein
110

Used to make chlorophyll
111
Why do plants need phosphates
Required for healthy roots
112
Why do plants need potassium
regulates stomata opening and closing
113
What is the definition of fertiliser
The chemicals that farmers add to the soil to prevent their crops from mineral deficiency
114
Notes on leaves
They are specially adapted for photosynthesis
Each component of a leaf has a special function that helps to carrie out photosynthesis
Are green- contain chlorophyll which absorbes light
Are thin- this allows gases to diffuse in and out of the leaf easily
Have a large surface area- to absorbe as much light as possible
Have veins- these contain xylem tubes which transport water, and phloem tubes which transports glucose
115
Why is the underneath of a leaf lighter than the top?
This is because the cells on the bottom of the leaf contain less chloroplasts which means less chlorophyll
116
Why does the top of the leaf have a waxy layer
To reduce the amount of water that evaporates of the leaf
117
What is stomata function
They are tiny holes in the leaf that allow gasses to diffuse in and out of the leaf
Carbon dioxide diffuse in and oxygen and water diffuse out
They open during the day and close during night
118
What is the function of the palisade layer
Contains cells packed with chloroplasts this is where most of the plans photosynthesis occurs
119
What is the function of the spongy layer
contains air spaces allowing carbon dioxide to diffuse throughout the leaf
120
Is bond braking exothermic or endothermic
Endothermic as it takes in energy
121
Is bond making exothermic or endothermic
Exothermic as it gives out energy
122
What is the definition of oxygen debt
A lack of oxygen at a certain time, means that more oxygen has to be taken in later
123
How does water get into the plant?
Water diffuses into the root cells, the hairs provide a large surface area to maximise the diffusion of water into the plant. The water is then transported around the plant in long hollow tubes called xylem tubes. These run throughout the plant. As the water evaporates from the leaves more water is drawn up through the plants.
124
What is photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction in which carbon dioxide and water in the presence of light change into glucose and oxygen. Glucose is the plants food whereas oxygen is a waste product so it is released into the atmosphere.
125
What is stomata.
Stomata are little holes in the leaf that let gases diffuse in and out of the leaf.
