They are transported to all parts of the plant in phloem tubes. Phloem tubes are living, and the movement of sucrose and amino acids is thought to be an active process.

White cells and immunity White cells and immunity Micro-organisms White blood cell White cells and immunity The white blood cell begins to surround the micro-organisms White cells and immunity The micro-organisms are ingested by the white blood cell and are destroyed. White cells and immunity The agranulocytes produce antitoxins which neutralise harmful toxins (poisons) produced by microorganisms. White cells and immunity Micro-organisms that invade our bodies are called pathogens. Once inside the body these pathogens (eg. viruses) reproduce inside cells and damage them, and produce toxins. Cell damage and toxins cause the symptoms of infectious diseases. White cells and immunity Micro-organisms that invade our bodies are called pathogens. Once inside the body these pathogens (eg. viruses) reproduce inside cells and damage them, and produce toxins. Cell damage and toxins cause the symptoms of infectious diseases. Pathogens contain specific chemicals called antigens that are detected by white blood cells. The white blood cells produce antibodies which latch onto the antigens and destroy the pathogens. White cells and immunity ANTIGEN WHITE BLOOD CELL White cells and immunity Antibodies produced by the white blood cell White cells and immunity Antibodies attach to the antigens, causing them to clump together, and they are then destroyed. White cells and immunity It can take a little time for the antibodies to be produced, so we may feel ill for a time. White cells and immunity The production of antibodies is much faster if we have already had the infectious disease. The white blood cells ‘recognise’ the antigen, respond rapidly and give us natural immunity. Artificial immunity We can acquire immunity to a particular disease by being vaccinated.

Artificial immunity We can acquire immunity to a particular disease by being vaccinated. • A weakened or dead antigen is Step 1 injected into a person. • The body produces antibodies Step 2 to fight the antigen. Step 3 • The body has now acquired immunity to this antigen as the white blood cells will now recognise the antigen and respond rapidly with the production of antibodies Our circulatory system Our circulatory system LUNGS HEART BODY Our circulatory system LUNGS HEART BODY Our circulatory system LUNGS Deoxygenated blood HEART BODY Oxygenated blood Our circulatory system Pulmonary artery LUNGS Pulmonary vein HEART Vena cava Aorta BODY The Heart The Heart Right Left The Heart The Heart Blood to the lungs (pulmonary artery) Blood from the body (Vena cava) Right atrium Semi-lunar valve Tricuspid valve Right ventricle The Heart Blood to the lungs (pulmonary artery) Blood from the lungs (pulmonary vein) Blood from the body (Vena cava) Blood to the body (Aorta) Right atrium Left atrium Semi-lunar valve Semi-lunar valve Tricuspid valve Bicuspid valve Right ventricle Left ventricle The Heart From body From lungs Ventricular diastole (relaxation) The Heart When the ventricular muscle relaxes, blood flows into the left and right atria, through veins, from the lungs (left) and from the body (right) From body From lungs Ventricular diastole (relaxation) The Heart When the ventricular muscle relaxes, blood flows into the left and right atria, through veins, from the lungs (left) and from the body (right) From body From lungs Ventricular diastole (relaxation) The right and left atria then contract, forcing open the bicuspid and tricuspid valves, and squeezing blood into the ventricles. The Heart To the lungs To the body Ventricular systole (contraction) The Heart To the lungs When the ventricular muscle contracts blood is forced through the semi – lunar valves into the arteries, taking blood to the lungs and body To the body Ventricular systole (contraction) The Heart To the lungs When the ventricular muscle contracts blood is forced through the semi – lunar valves into the arteries, taking blood to the lungs and body To the body Ventricular systole (contraction) The valves prevent the blood from flowing in the wrong direction. The cardiac cycle is a repeating sequence of contraction and relaxation. Heart rate and exercise As we exercise, our heart rate increases. The more intense the level of exercise, the faster our heart beats. Heart rate and exercise As we exercise, our heart rate increases. The more intense the level of exercise, the faster our heart beats. The faster our heart beats, the more oxygen can be transported to our muscles, and waste products can also be removed more quickly. Heart rate and adrenaline Adrenaline is a hormone secreted by our adrenal glands. The hormone is secreted when the body anticipates strenuous exercise, or when we are in a stressful situation. Adrenaline is carried in the blood and stimulates the heart to beat faster. More oxygen is therefore pumped to the muscles. Heart rate and adrenaline Adrenaline is a hormone secreted by our adrenal glands. The hormone is secreted when the body anticipates strenuous exercise, or when we are in a stressful situation. Adrenaline is carried in the blood and stimulates the heart to beat faster. More oxygen is therefore pumped to the muscles. Adrenaline is known as the ‘fight or flight’ hormone and prepares the body by increasing the oxygen supply, energy levels, and raising blood pressure. The Blood Vessels The Blood Vessels ARTERIES Very thick elastic and muscular layers which enable the artery to cope with the high blood pressure Small LUMEN (space through which the blood passes) Other features: no valves needed (high blood pressure). Carry blood away from the heart (all oxygenated, except the Pulmonary Artery). Substances cannot pass from the blood through the artery walls. The Blood Vessels VEINS Valve Much thinner elastic and muscular layers (blood is carried at much lower pressure) Large LUMEN (compared to the thickness of the walls) Other features: valves needed (low blood pressure). Carry blood towards the heart (all de-oxygenated, except the Pulmonary Vein). Substances cannot pass from the blood through the veins’ walls. The Blood Vessels CAPILLARIES Narrow, very thin-walled vessels, just one cell thick Microscopic, just enough room for blood cells to pass through. Connect arteries to veins Exchange of substances (oxygen, glucose, waste) between the blood and the surrounding tissues takes place here. The Blood Vessels Capillary network in a muscle cell Artery rich in oxygen and food Arteries branch into tiny one cell thick capillaries which pass close to each cell before re-uniting to form a vein. Vein rich in carbon dioxide and waste Glucose Deoxygenated red blood cells Blood capillary Energy Glucose + Oxygen Carbon dioxide + Water Muscle cell Glucose and oxygen diffuse from the blood into the muscle cell Energy is used for muscle contraction Carbon dioxide and water diffuse from the muscle cell into the blood Content Lesson 5 h) Transport h) Transport Humans 2.57 describe the composition of the blood: red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and plasma 2.58 understand the role of plasma in the transport of carbon dioxide, digested food, urea, hormones and heat energy 2.59 explain how adaptations of red blood cells, including shape, structure and the presence of haemoglobin, make them suitable for the transport of oxygen 2.60 describe how the immune system responds to disease using white blood cells, illustrated by phagocytes ingesting pathogens and lymphocytes releasing antibodies specific to the pathogen 2.61 understand that vaccination results in the manufacture of memory cells, which enable future antibody production to the pathogen to occur sooner, faster and in greater quantity 2.62 understand that platelets are involved in blood clotting, which prevents blood loss and the entry of micro-organisms 2.63 describe the structure of the heart and how it functions 2.64 explain how the heart rate changes during exercise and under the influence of adrenaline 2.65 describe the structure of arteries, veins and capillaries and understand their roles 2.66 understand the general structure of the circulation system to include the blood vessels to and from the heart, the lungs, the liver and the kidneys.
