Assignment Brief
P1
Produce a poster for your peer group which explains and organelle
and the range of organelles in a human cell and their functions.
Your poster should make use of visual imagery and should be
annotated in a way that would help your peer group understand the
structure and function of a cell.
You should include the following organelles in your poster:
 Nucleus
 Cytoplasm
 Mitochondria
 Endoplasmic reticulum (smooth and rough)
 Golgi apparatus
 Lysosome
P2
Produce a written report which describes the four main tissue types
in the body and the role that they play in two named organs of the
body.
Your report should cover the following tissue types:




Epithelial – simple and compound
Connective – blood, cartilage, bone, areolar, adipose
Muscle – striated, non-striated, cardiac
Nervous – neurones, neoroglia
In your report you should give examples of where each tissue type
might be found in the body and should describe the role of each of
these tissue types in the following organs:
 The Heart and
 The Lungs
P3
Produce a series of diagrams, to be displayed in your local health
centre, that provide an overview of the systems of the body.
Each diagram should be annotated and contain the following
information:
 A brief description of the function of the body system
 The main organs involved in each of the systems
The body systems that you should include for P3 are:










Cardiovascular
Respiratory
Digestive
Renal
Nervous
Endocrine
Reproductive
Lymphatic
Musculo-skeletal
Immune
P4
In your role as a health and social care professional in a respite care
home you have been asked to prepare a booklet to explain to your
client group how the body requires and uses energy.
You should produce an information booklet that gives an overview
of how energy is produced and utilised in the body.
You booklet should include information on:




Energy forms
Energy laws
Why the body needs energy and where does it come from
An explanation of the physiology of, and their role in the
utilisation of energy in the body of two of the three named
body systems :
THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM,
THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM,
THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
M1, D1
You should produce a written report which discusses the following
in relation to the role of energy in the body.
To achieve the Merit grade you should
Discuss the following details of energy metabolism:
 The role of energy in the body
 Anabolism and catabolism
 The activities involved in supplying energy to the cells of the
body
 The roles of the cardiovascular, respiratory and digestive
systems
D1
To achieve the distinction grade you should:
Analyse how two body systems work together to supply energy to
the cells of the body. You should discuss the interrelationship of
two of the following systems:
 The Cardiovascular System
 The Respiratory System
 The Digestive System
P5
In small groups of two or three you will produce and deliver a power
point presentation of 10 minutes in duration, in which you:
Describe the concept of homeostasis and the homeostatic
mechanisms that regulate heart rate, breathing rate, body
temperature and blood glucose levels and how do they stop heart
rate, breathing rate, body temperature and blood glucose levels
levels rising or falling to dangerous levels.
You should include information relating to the regulation of:
 Heart Rate
 Breathing Rate
 Body Temperature
 Blood Glucose Levels
The description should be detailed in its content and must identify
the homeostatic process. You may use examples and video footage
if appropriate.
You will deliver the presentation to the module leader. There will
be no other audience unless at your request. Each of you Must
contribute.
M2, D1
Should be presented in the form of a series of 4 fact sheets which
summarise the probable responses to changes in the body during
exercise. You should discuss the likely responses in relation to:
The Heart Rate
The Breathing Rate
Blood Glucose Levels
Temperature
Of the normal body when undertaking a period of exercise.
D1
You should produce a written report which evaluates the
importance of homeostasis in maintaining the healthy functioning of
the body and in stopping heart rate, breathing rate, body
temperature and blood glucose levels levels rising or falling to
dangerous levels. You should include the likely consequence of this
happening.
P6
Measure and record your body temperature, heart rate and
breathing rate before and after a period of exercise.
Write a scientific report giving details of the measurement method,
equipment used and exercise undertaken, an analysis of the results
obtained and any conclusions you have made from this exercise.
When you evaluate your results consider validity, reliability and
accuracy of the data.
You should present your data in the form of a graph or table.
M3
Analyse the data you have collected and presented in your practical
exercise to show how homeostatic mechanisms have controlled
the internal environment during your period of exercise.
You should present this as a written report which relates the details
And data collected during your practical exercise to the concept of
Homeostasis to the body’s response to periods of exercise.
