1
Q
Breathing
A
When muscles contract and relax to move air in and out of the lungs
2
Q
What do we need to stay alive?
A
Energy
3
Q
Where do we get our energy from?
A
From nutrients, especially glucose
4
Q
Respiration
A
A chemical reaction that happens inside every living cell in which energy is released for glucose so that the cell can use it
5
Q
What happens inside the cell for aerobic respiration?
A
A chemical reaction takes place where the glucose from digested starch in the small intestine combines with oxygen taken from air in breathing and the chemical potential energy released
6
Q
What is the word equation for aerobic respiration?
A
Glucose+ oxygen –> Carbon dioxide + water + energy
7
Q
What do the different colours mean on a thermogram?
A
Black is the coldest then purple, red, orange, yellow and finally white
8
Q
Being fit
A
Being able to do moderate exercise easily without getting tired too quickly e.g a professional tennis player has to be able to play a match that may last up to 5 hours
9
Q
What happens when we exercise?
A
Our muscles need energy which they get from respiration so then the energy will be transferred to movement energy in the muscles. When we exercise we need more energy because the faster our muscles work, the faster they respire, so more oxygen and glucose for respiration. They are brought to the muscles in the blood so the heart will beat faster when we exercise. We also breathe faster when we exercise so that air moves in and out faster
10
Q
What happens when an ice hockey player uses a lot of energy?
A
- The heart will pump quickly to send blood to the leg muscles
- Blood, containing glucose and oxygen, flows to the leg muscles
- Energy is supplied to the muscles by combining glucose and oxygen
- Oxygen diffuses in the blood from the air inside the lungs
- The breathing muscles work quickly to bring extra air into the lungs
11
Q
Doing regular exercise will help you to keep fit. How?
A
- It helps your heart and breathing muscles to get strong so they can work hard for you when you need them to.
- It strengthens your muscles
12
Q
The type of food that you eat affects your fitness. How?
A
- If someone eats too much and gets
overweight they will become unfit because :
1-The extra mass of the body needs more energy to move it around.
2-The heart works harder to push blood around the larger body.
3-The space inside arteries gets narrower because fat deposits build up inside them
13
Q
Why does extra mass around the body would make it difficult to do exercise?
A
Extra mass body means :
- More energy
- More respiration
- More oxygen and glucose
- The heart and lungs work harder
14
Q
Why does the heart working harder make it difficult to do exercise?
A
This makes it less likely that it will be able to supply oxygen and glucose to the muscles as fast as they require them
15
Q
Why do narrow arteries make it difficult to do exercise?
A
They can’t carry as much blood as healthy arteries. This means that less oxygen and glucose are transported to the muscles per minute. So muscles can’t respire as quickly and therefore don’t have as much energy to use for contraction
16
Q
Where does aerobic respiration take place?
A
Inside the mitochondria of the cell
17
Q
What energy is released in respiration?
A
Chemical potential energy and heat energy because everything that respires releases heat energy
18
Q
What is one of the easiest ways to make yourself unfit?
A
To smoke cigarettes
19
Q
What does the World heath organisation estimate each year?
A
- 4.2 million people will die early as a result of smoking cigarettes
- Cigarettes kill half of all the people who smoke them regularly
- Smoking kills more people each year than all the deaths from HIV / AIDS, drugs and road accidents added together
20
Q
What will happen to people who breathe in other people’s cigarette smoke?

21
Q
What is in cigarettes smoke?
A
- Nicotine
- Tar
- Carbon monoxide
- Particulates
22
Q
Nicotine
A
- It’s a harmful drug and addictive
- Makes your blood vessels get narrower, so the heart has to work harder to push blood through them so they are more likely to develop heart disease than non smokers
23
Q
Drug
A
A substance that changes the way the body works
24
Q
Tar
A
- Causes cancer and increases the risk of developing all types of cancer, but especially lung cancer
25
Addictive
Once your body has got used to it, it's very difficult to stop taking it
26
Cancer
A disease in which some cells divide uncontrollably forming a lump called a tumour
27
Carbon monoxide
- An invisible gas
- Combines with haemoglobin in the red blood cells, so they can't carry as much oxygen
28
Particulates
- Tiny particles of soot and other substances that get into the lungs to damage cells and the thin walls of the air sacs
- This makes it much more difficult for oxygen to get from the air sacs into the blood

Growth and development
41
Development
Development is about progress and changes in all aspects of life, including physical, mental, and emotional.

The reproductive organs and the brain undergo large changes and there is often a growth spurt at this time
48
What changes in the reproductive organs happen in girls in adolescence?
Menstruation begins. Hormones produced by the reproductive organs cause body shape changes as breasts develop, hips widen and hair begins to grow in the armpits and other parts of the body
49
What changes in the reproductive organs happen in boys adolescence?
Sperm production begins. Hormones produced by the reproductive organs cause body shape changes as shoulders broaden, the voice becomes deeper and hair begins to grow on the face, in the armpits and other parts of the body
50
What changes in the brain happen during adolescence?
The brain does not go any larger during adolescence, but there is quite a lot of reorganisation which makes a person think and feel differently from when they were a child.
- The person becomes better at making decisions, planning ahead, thinking logically and learns quickly
- Emotions may become stronger, people may worry more, have romantic feelings, and become more self-aware
- There is often a strong need for approval from friends and others and young people may want to be like their role models so they set themselves impossible standards trying to be like someone on TV
51
What does glucose contain?
Chemical potential energy
52

The release of energy from glucose by reacting it with oxygen inside living cells so that the cells can use it
53
Name the two new substances that are made when glucose reacts with oxygen inside a cell
Water and carbon dioxide
54
how does glucose get to a cell in a muscle?
Glucose is produced when starch is digested inside the digestive system. It is absorbed into the blood through the walls of the small intestine, and then the glucose is dissolved in the blood plasma, the blood carries it to the heart, and the heart pumps it to the body cells in the muscles.
55
how does oxygen get into a cell in a muscle?
Oxygen diffuses into the capillaries from the air sacs in the lungs. It diffuses into red blood cells, combining with haemoglobin to form oxyhaemoglobin, then the blood flows to the heart and is pumped out and delivered to the muscle cells
56
What is the difference between respiration and breathing?
Respiration is a chemical reaction inside all living cells when glucose combines with oxygen, producing water and carbon dioxide and releasing energy in a form the cell can use.
Breathing is how muscles contract and relax to move air into and out of the lungs.
57
Explain why a professional sportsperson often has a diet that contains carbohydrates just before a competition
These foods contain starch. Starch is digested to produce
glucose, which is used by cells to provide energy in respiration
58
Why do most professional sportsmen and women don't smoke?
Smoking would make it more difficult for them to perform at the top of their sport. Their muscles would not get as much oxygen, so would not be able to work as efficiently as in a non-smoker
59
How many chromosomes will there be in a human zygote?
46

Conservation of mass
The rule that no mass is lost or gained in a chemical reaction
97
Who is Antoine Lavoisier?
A French scientist who carried out an experiment using the crucible in 1772. He repeated it a lot of times and found out he had an increase in mass every time so he came up with the idea that when we burn something it combines with a gas from the air that he named oxygen (He also found out that this gas is used in respiration as well)
98
What will happen to the mass of calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid without a stopper?
The gas escapes into the air because the flask is open. We cant measure the mass so it appears as if the mass decreases
99
