Science Notes

- When you inhale the chest cavity expands. This lowers the pressure in the chest cavity so its below atmospheric pressure. Air then flows into the lungs.

-When you exhale the diaphragm and intercostal muscle relax and the chest cavity gets smaller. The decrease in volume increases the pressure inside the chest above outside air pressure. Air flows out of lungs.

                        

                           

                                          Illnesses Associater with Lungs

Asthma: Bronchioles constrict reducing size of airway.

Emphysema: Lungs become stiff with fiber and less elastic muscles must work harder.

Bronchitis: Airway becomes inflamed and marrower.

Pneumothorax: Air in the chest cavity equalised pressure inside and out causes lung to collapse.

Apnea: Breathing slows or stops.

Pulmonary Edema: Fluid between alveolus and capillary builds up increases distance over which gases exchange.

Smoke Inhalation: Smoke particles coat alveoli and prevent gas exchange.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Carbon Monoxide binds to hemoglobin more tightly than either oxygen or carbon dioxide.

Questions on the Heart.

1. Explain the thickness between left and right ventricle.

- The two ventricles are different in thickness because the left ventricle pumps more blood then the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs which is so close to it, but the left ventricle needs to pump the blood through out the body. That’s what it is way thicker. More muscle is needed.

2. What did the Aorta feel like?

- The aorta was very stretchy and tough to me and it also looked pinkish. When we tried to cut it, it was very hard because of its toughness. The aorta is the artery that pumps blood throughout the body. As soon as you put your finger through this artery it leads to 2 different chambers.

3. Does the Aorta have a lot of it’s own blood supply?

- I think the aorta had a lot of it’s on blood supply because it has to pump the blood that goes through the artery to the whole body.

4. How many Pulmonary veins are there?

- There were 2 pulmary veins on each side of the heart.

5. What kind of muscle is the heart muscle made out of?

-  The heart muscle is called the cardiac muscle it’s function is to pump blood through he circulatory system.

6. Which valve from the pig is used for human transplant ? What drugs do you have to take after transplant.

-  The valve that the pigs have for a human transplant is called the mitral valve. The drugs that humans have to take everyday is called immunosuppressive.

Antibody: A type of blood protein that recognizes and tries to destroy foreign matter in the body.

Immune System: The parts of the body involved in defending against disease-causing organism.

Hormone: A type of blood protein that acts as a chemical messenger.

Clot-Forming Blood Protein: A set of protein that form a hard plug wherever a blood vessel has been damaged.

Red Blood Cell: A small disk-shaped blood cell that contains hemoglobin a protein combines with oxygen.

Hemoglobin: A protein contained in red blood cells that pick up oxygen in areas of high concentration and release the oxygen in areas of low concentration.

White Blood Cell:  Part of the immune system, they gaurd against bacteria and other dangerous substance that enter the body.

Platelet: A small cell like fragment found in the blood.

Artery: A thick-walled blood vessel that carries blood away from the heart.

Vein: Blood vessels returning blood to your heart.

Capillary: A tiny, thin-walled blood vessel that carries blood close to body cells for the exchange of supplies and waste.

Valve: Are flaps that open to allow flow in one direction and close to prevent flow in the oppisite direction.

Pulse: The rhythm surge of blood passing a certain place in an artery.

Heart Rate: Number of times heart beats in a minute.

Oxygenated Blood: Blood in which the red blood cells are carrying large amounts of oxygen.

De-oxygenated Blood: Blood in which the red blood cells have given up their oxygen to body cells and so are no longer carrying large amounts of oxygen.

Atrium: One of two chambers t the top of the heart.

Ventricle: Two chambers at the bottom of the heart.

Heart Attack:A failure of the blood supply to the muscle of the heart

Atherosclerosis: A disease in which cholesterol and other fats stick to the inner surface of arteries reduce the amount of blood moving through the artery

12. – Eggs and butter not part of a milk group.

- Canadian Bacon and Pineapple pizza contains foods from all the five food groups.

- Carbohydrates is the best  energy source for athletes.

- Vitamin A and C cure acne.

- Lack of Iron causes Anemia ( lack of red blood cells)

- Body needs calories to grow and repair cells.
