Plant Transport • Think – • What needs to be transported about inside plants? • We need to find out more about how it happens and the problems that arise. http://www.twigonglow.com/films/plant-transport-1187/ Xylem They have no cell contents and no nucleus. They are dead cells. The end walls have broken down and have disintegrated. Side walls are strengthened by lignin to prevent damage by water pressure Transport of water lignin xylem vessel Transpiration Plants need water for photosynthesis. It is absorbed in the roots and evaporated out of leaves. http://www.twigonglow.com/films/glossary/transpiration-441/ Transpiration Rate • Various factors will affect the rate of transpiration. • This includes light temperature humidity wind Potometer • Transpiration rate can be measured using a potometer. • Changing conditions around the potometer will change the rate of transpiration Leaf Structure cuticle upper epidermis mesophyll layer vein moist air space guard cells stoma lower epidermis Leaf Structure Part Upper Epidermis Mesophyll layer Function Protective layer.

The job of the heart is to pump blood around the body. The heart can be thought of as a muscular pump. http://www.twigonglow.com/films/heart-976/ The heart right atrium right ventricle Left atrium left ventricle The heart has four chambers. The heart is shown from the front. Like it is in your body…the left hand side is nearest your left arm etc… The heart Blood contains (as well as many other things) dissolved food, and gases (e.g. oxygen and carbon dioxide. Every cell in the body needs food and oxygen. The blood from the heart must reach all cells, so that means the heart needs its own blood supply too . coronary artery The coronary artery supplies food and oxygen to the cells of the heart muscle. When these blood vessels get blocked, you can suffer a heart attack. The heart from body to lungs The ventricles have thicker walls than the atria. to body from lungs left atrium from body left ventricle right ventricle The left ventricle has a thicker wall than the right ventricle because the left ventricle has to pump blood right around the body and the right ventricle only has to pump blood to the lungs. The heart vena cava pulmonary artery Arteries go away from the heart. aorta pulmonary vein Veins return to the heart. vena cava A pulse indicates that blood is flowing through an artery. Can you find your own pulse? Circulation around body Pulmonary artery Vena Cava Pulmonary vein Aorta Blood flow through the heart Deoxygenated blood i.e. low in oxygen returns to the heart via the vena cava after travelling to all parts of the body. It enters the heart at the right atrium atrium. The right ventricle then pumps blood out through the pulmonary pulmonary artery to the lungs. lungs In the lungs the blood picks up oxygen and loses dioxide carbon dioxide. The oxygenated blood then returns to the heart via the pulmonary vein, vein entering the left atrium. The left left ventricle pumps blood out through the aorta to the body. The heart Valves between ventricles and blood vessels The heart has two sets of valves. Valves can be open or closed (like gates). Valves stop blood flowing backwards (ie the wrong way). One set of valves are found between the two atria and the ventricles – blood can’t flow back into the atrium. Valves between atria and ventricles The other set of valves are found between the two ventricles and the blood vessels leaving the heart – blood can’t flow back into the ventricles. Valves act like a one way street Valves Veins/arteries heart veins arteries capillaries The heart and blood circulation Every cell in the body needs food and oxygen. The blood circulation must reach all cell Arteries carry oxygenated blood (high in oxygen) from the heart around the body. blood vessels arteries veins Veins carry deoxygenated blood (high in carbon dioxide) back to the heart. The exception is the pulmonary artery, which carries blood high in carbon dioxide from the heart to the lungs. Arteries Veins and Capillaries Arteries have thick walls to withstand the high pressure of the blood being pumped by the heart. Arteries divide into smaller blood vessels and finally into tiny capillaries. Arteries Veins and Capillaries Capillaries are in close contact with the living cells. They are only one cell thick. They allow water, gases and other substances, to pass to between the blood and the body’s tissues. Arteries Veins and Capillaries Veins have thinner walls than arteries. They carry the deoxygenated blood (high in carbon dioxide) blood back to the heart. They have thinner walls because the deoxygenated blood is at low pressure. Veins have valves to prevent the backflow of blood. The pulmonary vein, which carries blood high in oxygen from the lungs to the heart is the exception. Arteries Veins and Capillaries Blood is carried away from the heart in arteries. arteries organs These arteries carry blood to the body’s organs and tissues. In the organs the arteries split up into a network of tiny tubes called capillaries capillaries. Substances are exchanged between the capillaries and the tissues. veins Blood leaves the tissues in vessels called veins back to the heart. which carry the blood Gas exchange at the tissues Oxygen diffuses diffuses from the high concentration in the capillary blood across into the body cells. Carbon dioxide diffuses from the high concentration in the cells into the plasma plasma. Blood from artery high oxygen low carbon dioxide Blood to vein high carbon dioxide low oxygen living cell CO2 oxygen capillary CO2 More about Capillaries The capillary network allows efficient exchange of gas, food and waste because thin n walled which gives a greater surface surface area to 1. They are narrow and thi allow fast diffusion of gases etc. 2. They are very long long which also increases the surface area. 3. No cell is ever far away from a capillary thus ensuring easy exchange. http://www.twigonglow.com/films/blood-971/ Red blood cells and plasma Blood is made up of cells floating in a liquid called plasma. The plasma also carries dissolved substances food and such as carbon carbondioxide, dioxide digested food waste products. Red blood cells carry oxygen oxygen http://www.twigonglow.com/films/why-is-blood-red-978/ Haemoglobin A red pigment called haemoglobin haemoglobin is found in red blood cells. Its function is to combine with oxygen to form oxyhaemoglobin. At the lungs, haemoglobin combines with oxygen to make oxyhaemoglobin. At the tissues, oxyhaemoglobin releases oxygen and becomes haemoglobin again. at lungs haemoglobin + oxygen oxyhaemoglobin at tissues Learning Outcomes • Describe the structure and function of the lungs • Explain the function of the rings of cartilage in the trachea • Describe the function of cilia and mucus in the trachea • Describe gas exchange within the alveoli • Explain how the structure of the lungs is related to their function Respiratory system • To carry out respiration, the body needs a supply of oxygen. It gets this from the air. • The respiratory system extracts oxygen form the air to make it available [via the blood] to the respiring cell. http://www.twigonglow.com/films/lungs-981/ Respiratory System Structures - Revision nasal cavity trachea air sac bronchus intercostal muscle Left lung ribs heart diaphragm Lung Structure Lungs are spongy organs full of tiny air sacs called alveoli. They have a very large surface area. They are pinky red because they have a good blood supply. Rings of cartilage are found around the trachea and the bronchi to prevent them from collapsing. http://www.twigonglow.com/films/factpack-lungs-982/ The lining of air passages Air contains dust and germs which could damage your lungs. The cells lining the air passages have small hairs or cilia. The cilia move in waves to push upwards and keep the lungs clear. (produce mucus) Lung Structure Gas exchange in the air sacs The bronchi divide into smaller and smaller tubes called bronchioles. Each bronchiole ends in an air sac, which is lined in moisture. Oxygen dissolves in moisture and diffuses from lungs into blood because there is a higher concentration in the air sac than in the blood. Carbon dioxide diffuses in opposite direction because there is a higher concentration in the blood than in the air sac. The alveoli Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged between the air and blood in the alveoli. There are many thousands of alveoli. Importance in Multicellular Organisms oxygen carbon dioxide Learning Outcomes • State the function of the digestive system • • Name the parts of the digestive system and give their function • • Describe the process of peristalsis • • Explain how the structure of the small intestine is related to its function • • State where glucose, amino acids, fatty acids and glycerol are absorbed within the villi The Alimentary Canal The alimentary canal leads from the mouth to the anus. Associated organs are connected to it – the salivary glands, liver and pancreas by ducts. 1. Digestion in the mouth Digestion begins in the mouth with mechanical breakdown of food by teeth and chemical breakdown of starch by the enzyme amylase.( made in salivary glands) Saliva contains mucus so food is easy to swallow. Oesophagus and Peristalsis Oesophagus is a muscular tube - connects the mouth to stomach. It is the start of the alimentary canal, which is a long tube stretching from mouth to anus. When food is swallowed wave-like muscular contractions called peristalsis ensures the food (bolus) moves down in a slow controlled way no matter what position the body is in. The muscle ahead of the food is relaxed while the muscle behind the food contracts. Peristalsis Muscles behind food contracted Direction of Food food movement Muscles ahead of food relaxed Stomach The stomach is a muscular sac with longitudinal and circular muscles that contract and relax, churning or mixing food with acid and enzymes. The mucus, lining the stomach protects the wall from being damaged by the acid ( pH 2). Acid provides the correct pH for the protein digesting enzyme pepsin to work. pepsin protein Peptides Small Intestine As food leaves the stomach, it enters the small intestine. The first 12 inches make up the duodenum. There are 2 ducts connected to this : a) Pancreatic : enzymes made by the pancreas enter through this. ( lipases,amylases and proteases, an example of a protease is trypsin) b) Bile : bile stored in the gall bladder enters through this. Bile is made in the liver but stored in the gall bladder. Bile emulsifies fats ( gets them to mix with water) and neutralises the acid soaked food coming from the stomach as it is an alkali. Small Intestine The main job of the small intestine is to absorb the products of digestion. It is well adapted for this by : •Long and inner membrane is highly folded. This increases the surface area for absorption •Thin inner lining ,only one cell thick. • Many blood capillaries to absorb and transport products. Lacteals are present to transport fats Villi in small intestine 100x Small intestine villus Fate of Digested Food Glucose, amino acids ( products of carbohydrate and protein digestion) are absorbed into the blood capillaries Fatty acids and glycerol are absorbed into the lacteal. Next Step – Liver ! The liver decides how much sugar is needed in the blood and converts the excess to glycogen and stores it. Liver The liver decides how much amino acids should be in the blood and converts the excess to urea. This urea is taken to the kidneys for excretion in urine. Fatty acids and glycerol travel in the lymphatic system. Excess is stored as fatty tissue. Large Intestine Material passing into the large intestine consists of undigested matter ( fibre), bacteria and dead cells . The colon absorbs water from this before eliminating the waste as faeces.
