Name the process of exchanging of substances between the organism and its environment.
Diffusion
Diffusion occurs rapidly if??
1.surface area of organisms contact with the environment is large.
2.the volume of organism is small
3.the TSA/v of organism is large
4.the distance between the source of substance and the cells is near
5.high concentration gradient is maintained between the source of substances and the body cells
How is unicellular organism's TSA/V??
large
How diffusion occur in unicellular organism??
Nutrient,oxygen can diffuse across the surface area easily.
How is multicellular organism's TSA/V??
small
How diffusion occur in multicellular organism??
Nutrient,oxygen hard to diffuse across the surface area because the distance between the substance source and the body cells is too far
Way to overcome the problem of multicellular organism.
By carrying out the circulatory system.
The advantages of circulatory system.
1.distribution of nutrients and oxygen throughout the body
2.the removal of waste products from the body
State the major component of circulatory system
1.blood
2.heart
3.blood vessel
State the function of blood
1.transportation
2.regulation
3.protection
How blood practise the function of transportation(3)
1.carry O2 from lung to cell
carry CO2 for cell to lung
2.transports nutrients,oxygen and antibodies throughout the body
3.transports the waste product out from the body
How does regulation take place(3)
1.maintain pH level of blood fluid
2.maintain body temperature
3.maintains water contain in cells
How does protection take place(2)
1.prevent excess blood loss
2.prevent disease,against infection
State the function of heamolymph
transports water, inorganic salts and organic component throughout the heamocoel
composition of human blood
55% plasma
45% cellular component
list out 5 constituents of plasma
1.water
2.ions
3.plasma protein
4.hormones
5.dissolved substances
state the function of water
a SOLVENT to transport dissolved substances
state the function of ions
maintain the osmotic balance and the pH of the blood at 7.4
List out the type of plasma proteins
1.Albumin
2.Fibrinogen
3.Immuniglobulins
State the function of plasma proteins
1.clotting factor
2.antibodies
State the function of hormones
control physiological activities in the body
Name the types of cellular components
1.Erthrocyctes
2.Leucocyte
3.Platelets
Structure of red blood cell adapts it to its function
1.biconcave disc
2.doesn't hv nuclei
3.large surface area to volume ration
4.formed from bone-marrow
5.contain Haemoglobin, it is an oxygen-carrying protein pigment
Structure of white blood cell (leucocyte) adapts it to its function
1.irregular in shape
2.most of them larger than red blood cell
3.made of stem cells and bone marrow
4.fight in various ways
Two groups that can Leucocytes can be classified
1.Granulocytes
2.Agranulocytes
Types in Granulocytes group
Neutrophils
Eosinophils
Basophils
Function of Neutrophils
engulf and digest
Function of Erosinophils
release enzyme
Function of Basophils
involving in combating inflammatory and allergic reactions
kill parasite
Types in Agranulocytes
Lymphocytes
Monocytes
Function of Lymphocytes
Produce the immune response against foreign substances
Function of Monocytes
engulf and digest
