How are the two types of blood (oxygen-rich
and oxygen-poor) kept apart inside the heart?
The heart is the organ at the centre of the circulatory
system. It pumps blood around the body.
The inside of the heart is divided into two sections so
that the two types of blood (oxygenated and
deoxygenated) are kept apart
.
deoxygenated
blood
right side
of the heart
oxygenated
blood
left side
of the heart
Remember that the heart is always labelled as if it is
in a body facing you, so the right side of the heart is
on the left of the diagram.
During one complete
circuit of the body,
blood passes through
the heart twice and so
the circulatory system
involves a double
circulation.
The right hand side
of the heart pumps
deoxygenated blood
to the lungs.
The left hand side of
the heart pumps
oxygenated blood to
the body organs.

The heart has four chambers.
A lower chamber is called a ventricle.
An upper chamber is called an atrium (plural
atria).

The chambers of the heart are separated by valves
which prevent blood from flowing in the wrong direction.
There are valves between the atria and the ventricles…
…and there are valves leading out of the ventricles.

right atrium and
right ventricle

left atrium and

All the parts of the heart on either
side, work together
in a repeated sequence.
The two atria contract and relax;
then the two ventricles contract
and relax.
This is how blood moves through
the heart and is pumped to the
lungs and
the body.
One complete sequence of
contraction and relaxation is
called a heartbeat.
The heart is full of blood but also needs its own
blood supply so that the muscle can keep pumping.
coronary
arteries supply
blood to muscle
tissue of the
heart
The blood vessels on the outside of the heart carry
oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle cells.
Oxygen-poor blood is then carried away from these
cells by outer blood vessels and back into the heart.

Looking at the cross-section of
an artery, why is it suitable for
carrying blood at high pressure?
The veins carry blood at low

When blood flows along veins
it pushes past

it is trapped by
closed valves.

What is blood made of?
Blood is made up of a liquid
called plasma and blood cells
that float in this plasma.
If a test tube of blood is left
to stand for a while the blood
cells sink to the bottom of the
test tube and separate from the
plasma which is a clear yellow
liquid.
blood cells
(45% of
volume)
plasma
(55% of
volume)
Liquid plasma transports many
substances around the body. It
transports digested food, and
waste substances like carbon
dioxide and urea around the
body.
Different types of blood cells
Blood plasma carries three types of blood cells.
They have different shapes and carry out different
functions.
red
blood cell
white
blood cell
platelet
A red blood cell has several features that help it do
its job:
Disc-shaped, with
a dent on each side,
creates a large
surface area for gas
exchange.
A large surface area
compared to volume,
so oxygen is always
close to the surface.
It has no nucleus, so
there is more space
for haemoglobin and
so more oxygen.
It contains
haemoglobin,
a special pigment
that combines
with oxygen.
haemoglobin
haemoglobin
Haemoglobin is the special pigment in red blood cells.
At the lungs, oxygen diffuses into red blood cells and
combines with haemoglobin to form oxyhaemoglobin.
This is how red blood cells are able to bind to oxygen and
carry it in the blood.
Oxyhaemoglobin makes red blood cells appear bright red.

What are we going to learn about today?
•Why mammals need transport
systems.
•The internal structure of the lungs
•How rings of cartilage in the trachea
stop it from collapsing.
•About the self-cleaning mechanism of
our lungs.
Support ppt circulation
Breathing involves the exchange
of gases in the lungs, a process
which occurs by diffusion.
What is the vital gas that
you breathe in?
The lungs have a huge surface area to maximize the
exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide with each
breath.
oxygen
carbon dioxide
What is the waste gas that
you breathe out?
You can think of the trachea as a
tube lined with C-shaped
supporting rungs.
Diagram of trachea with cartilage rungs.
These rings are
made of a tough
material called
cartilage. They
help to hold the
trachea open.
The cartilage rungs are C-shaped and not full circles so that when
you breathe in the trachea can also expand and allow in maximum
air.
As well as being adapted on its outer surface, the
trachea shows adaptations on its inner lining.
If we look closely at the inner surface of the trachea…
ciliated epithelial cells
The trachea

The ciliated epithelial cells that line the wall of the
trachea show two special adaptations.
We say the cells show specialisation.
These specialised cells have a particular job to do.
Some cells produce a
sticky liquid - mucus to
trap dirt and germs.
All cells have tiny hairs
called cilia which move the
mucus and trapped dirt
and germs upwards away
from the lungs

surface area for the efficient diffusion of gases.
What are these blood vessels around each alveolus
called?

Alveoli are adapted for efficient diffusion of gases as they ;
•Have a large surface area.
•Are thin for quick easy diffusion.
•Have a good blood supply for the efficient transport of
gases around the body.

•Digestion is the breakdown of large
insoluble food particles into small
soluble molecules by enzymes.
•Digestion is required as only small
soluble molecules can pass through
the wall of the small intestine and
enter the blood.
Carbohydrates are chains of identical glucose molecules.
The digestive enzymes break the chemical bonds
between the individual sugar molecules in each
carbohydrate chain to form glucose.

Proteins are made up of amino acids. There are 20
different types of amino acids.
Proteins are digested by digestive enzymes called
proteases. These enzymes work in an acidic environment
to break proteins into smaller amino acids.

Enzymes and protein digestion
Fats are digested in two stages:
Firstly, bile (released by the gall bladder) allows the
fat to “mix” with water by breaking the fat into
smaller droplets. This is called emulsification.
Secondly, the digestive enzyme lipase breaks each fat
molecule into the smaller glycerol fatty acid molecules

  • 36. Alveoli are adapted for efficient diffusion of gases as they ; •Have a large surface area. •Are thin for quick easy diffusion. •Have a good blood supply for the efficient transport of gases around the body.
  • 37. Structure of Lung Function Trachea/windpipe Passage through which air enters the lungs. Lining produces mucus which traps dirt and germs keeping air passages clean. Rings of cartilage Keep trachea open Bronchi Branch off the trachea Bronchioles Narrow branches off the bronchus Air sacs At the end of bronchioles ,have a large surface area for efficient exchange of gases Blood capillaries Surround the air sacs so gases can be efficiently exchanged and then transported around the body. Diaphragm Muscle involved in breathing. Intercostal muscles Muscles between the ribs which are involved in breathing
  • 38. Feature of air sac Importance Large surface area Allows the efficient diffusion of gases. Moist So gases can dissolve in water before they diffuse from the air sac. Thin walls For quick easy diffusion. Rich blood supply For quick efficient transport of gases throughout the body.
  • 41. Learning Outcomes •Rings of cartilage keep main airways open. •Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged through the alveolar walls. •Alveoli have a large surface area, a good blood supply and thin walls for more efficient diffusion of gases. •Mucus traps dirt and microorganisms and cilia move this up and away from the lungs.
  • 46. Animals need food to provide the energy for growth ,repair, chemical reactions, warmth & movement. The main food groups in the in the human diet are ;carbohydrates, fats proteins.
  • 47. Animals need food to provide the energy for growth ,repair, chemical reactions, warmth & movement. The main food groups in the in the human diet are ;carbohydrates, fats proteins.
  • 48. •Carbohydrates- provide an instant source of energy. •Fats- provide a long term source of energy and help insulate animals. •Proteins- are required for growth and repair of body tissues.
  • 49. Food Group (Large Insoluble Food Molecule) Constituent Elements Basic Unit (Small Soluble Food Molecule) Examples of foods Starch CHO glucose Bread, pasta, cereals, potatoes Fat CHO Fatty acids and glycerol Milk, cheese, butter, oil, meat Protein CHON Amino acids Fish, eggs, meat
  • 50. •Digestion is the breakdown of large insoluble food particles into small soluble molecules by enzymes. •Digestion is required as only small soluble molecules can pass through the wall of the small intestine and enter the blood.
  • 51. Carbohydrates are chains of identical glucose molecules. The digestive enzymes break the chemical bonds between the individual sugar molecules in each carbohydrate chain to form glucose. long carbohydrate molecule glucose molecules
  • 52. Proteins are made up of amino acids. There are 20 different types of amino acids. Proteins are digested by digestive enzymes called proteases. These enzymes work in an acidic environment to break proteins into smaller amino acids. protease long protein molecule amino acid molecules Enzymes and protein digestion
  • 53. Fats are digested in two stages: Firstly, bile (released by the gall bladder) allows the fat to “mix” with water by breaking the fat into smaller droplets. This is called emulsification. Secondly, the digestive enzyme lipase breaks each fat molecule into the smaller glycerol fatty acid molecules . bile lipase + fat molecule glycerol fatty acids Enzymes and fat digestion
  • 54. Starch and glucose mixture inside the Visking tubing. Only glucose is small enough to diffuse through the pores in the Visking tubing.
  • 55. Circular muscle contracts behind food Circular muscle relaxes in front of food pushing food along the gut. Peristalsis is the alternate contraction and relaxation of the muscles which results in the movement of food along the digestive system or alimentary canal.
  • 58. Dissolved food molecules diffuse from the small intestine into the blood, moving from higher to lower concentration. wall of small intestine blood entering villus blood leaving villus inside the small intestine diffusion Fatty acids & glycerol diffuse into the lacteal Glucose & amino Acids diffuse into the blood capillaries
  • 59. Both are thin for quick easy diffusion Both have a large surface area for quick easy diffusion Both have a good blood supply for efficient transport of substances around the body. Both are moist so substances can dissolve before the can diffuse into cells
