sweet” Diabetes is an extremely common and well known disease that becomes more and more common every day. The disease is based on sugar is the body‚ or glucose. When your body breaks down carbohydrates‚ it produces glucose‚ and essential sugar for the human body. There is a bodily function in which insulin helps the body use glucose‚ and this process is broken in diabetics. Due to this‚ the amount of sugar in a diabetic is raised to dangerously high levels. The consequences to leaving this untreated

Planning Introduction Stomata are pores on the bottom of leaves of vascular plants. The function of stomata is to allow gaseous exchange (transpiration) between the plant and the external environment (see diagrams below). This process is carried out by the plant‚ which controls the opening and closing of stomata via the guard cells. The more stomata a leaf contains the greater the rate of gas exchange and the less water it will be able to accumulate. Stomatal pores are formed between

Gas exchange is a biological process that is essential for the survival of an organism. The purpose of this process is to obtain oxygen from the environment (which is necessary for cellular respiration‚ and to dispose of CO2‚ a bi product of respiration. An efficient gas exchange system has 3 requirements. It must have a large surface area over which the gases can diffuse. A large surface area maximises the amount of area available for the gases to exchange. It must also be moist. Oxygen must first
