system as these substances will damage the lungs and cause a reduction in their ability to function properly. Carbon Monoxide One of the main functions of the respiratory system is to provide the body with oxygen so that it can be delivered to vital cells that require oxygen to function. Oxygen is carried in red blood cells by reaction with a substance called haemoglobin to form oxyhaemoglobin. However‚ haemoglobin

Interestingly‚ it is also this ultraviolet radiation that forms the ozone in the first place. Ozone is a special form of oxygen‚ made up of three oxygen atoms rather than the usual two oxygen atoms. It usually forms when some type of radiation or electrical discharge separates the two atoms in an oxygen molecule (O2)‚ which can then individually recombine with other oxygen molecules to form ozone (O3). The ozone layer became more widely appreciated by the public when it was realized that certain

experiment was conducted to see if the brain would perform better in mathematical tasks‚ if there was an increase in blood flow through exercise. The increase in blood flow should help the brain to perform better as it receives more oxygen. This is because all cells require oxygen for cellular respiration. To test this‚ three females‚ aged 16-17‚ were asked to answer four mathematical questions for four trials. As each trial progressed‚ subjects had to run on the spot for an extra 30s. It was clear from

fact that autotrophic organisms create most of the oxygen that heterotrophs breath. Whithout them‚ heterotrophs which need oxygen to survive would not live very long. The second reason is that autotrophs are the lowest food on the food chart. Without them many heterotrops would die from starvation. 3.

Research Question/Aim To understand the change in mass after burning magnesium and to also determine the chemical formula of magnesium oxide Hypothesis Burning the magnesium will result in an increase in mass because the magnesium will react with oxygen in the air to make magnesium oxide Variables Independent- Initial mass of magnesium (Mg) Dependent- Mass of the burnt magnesium (MgO) Controlled: Intensity of flame Apparatus used (same crucible‚ Bunsen burner‚ tongs‚ electric balance) Duration

at the start of any activity‚ even if the intensity is not enough for the aerobic system. If you go out on a jog‚ most of this is powered by the aerobic system‚ but the start of the jog is needs to create ATP so that the heart and lungs have enough oxygen and can saturate the blood before the aerobic system can kick in. When the heart and lungs have caught up with the movement of the activity and the intensity is low enough‚ then the aerobic energy system can fuel the body. In bas scenarios‚ such

Assuming Joseph’s heart stopped‚ what cellular functions are going to be affected by the loss of oxygen‚ blood glucose‚ and waste removal? All cells will work hard burning up ATP. Carbon dioxide starts to build in cells and PH balance will drop. Cells will die and active transport pumps shut down the plasma membrane of his heart. Cell become leaky

manufacture ATP by phosphorylating ADP. Many prokaryotes and virtually all Eukaryotes phosphorylate ADP either through fermentation (anaerobic) or respiration (aerobic). Both of these processes involve oxidation of foodstuffs‚ yet only the latter requires oxygen. Cellular respiration is a very complex process that consists of many steps that take place inside the cell‚ in an organelle called a mitochondrion. Mitochondria are responsible for converting digested nutrients into the energy-yielding molecule
