- 37Outline the process of immunisation.Immunisation for children. There are some diseases that can kill children or cause lasting damage to their health. Sometimes your child's system needs help to fight those diseases. Immunisation - also called 'vaccination', 'jabs' or 'injections' - provides that help.
- 38What is the difference between benign and malignantBenign - humour cells, such as in warts, are slow and harmless
Malignant - tumours are cancerous. Cells divide out of control and spread throughout the body - 39Explain why a double blind trial might be used to test new drugs (HSW)It can be more reliabe and therefore show a more accurate set of results.
- 40Explain the need for careful use of antibioticsThe pathogens will get used to the antibiotics and no react to it.
- 41Describe what happens at a synapseSynapse's send messages from one nerve to another. The neurotransmitters travel across them.
- 42How are motor neurones adapted to their function?They carry sgnals from the CNS to the effectors.
- 43Explain how the eye focuses lightThe rays of light are refracted ny your cornea, and the lens focusses light onto the retina.
- 44Describe the path of the reflex arc-
- 45What is the CNS?Central nevrous system
consists of your brain and spine - 46What are sensory neurones?Sensory neurones carry signals from receptors to the spinal cord and brain.
- 47What are relay neurones?Relay neurones carry message from one part of the CNS to another.
- 48What effect does depressants have on you? Example?It slows down brain activity.
E.g. Alcohol & Solvents. - 49What effect does stimulants have on you? Example?Increases brain activity
E.g. Nicotine & Caffeine - 50What drug category blocks nerve impulses?Painkillers.

Increased blood flow to skin
- Slurred speed
- Balance and muscular control loss - 55Give 2 long term effects of alcohol.- Damages your liver
- Damages your brain - 56Why is there a legal limit for alcohol for drivers and pilots?Because blurred vision and impaired judgement can cause un-easiness and lack of concentration.
- 57What is the cause of 'smokers cough'?Cigarrette smoke stops the cilia from moving. Normally cilia hairs move to psuh mucus out of the lungs. Damaged cells cannot do this, leading to a build up of mucus and a smokers cough.
- 58Explain the basis of the legal classification system for drugs (A-C)A = most dangerous
higher consequence
C = least dangerous - 59What is the normal body temperature?37 degrees.

- Keep check on diet - 63How could you control type 1 diabetes?Inject insulin.
- 64What are the effects on the body if temperature is too high?- Sweating
- Blood goes to the skin to try to lose heat
- Vasodilation (blood vessels become larger) - 65What are the effects on the body if temperature is too low?- Shivering
- Hair stand on end to trap air
- Vasocontsiction blood ( vessels near skin skin becomes narrow )
- Dehydration
- Hypothermia (pulse rate slows) - 66Explain why responses controlled by hormones are usually slower than responses controlled by the nervus system.-
- 67Explain how vasodilation and vasoconstriction increase or reduce heat transfer to the environmentVasodilation (blood vessels become larger)
- Vasocontsiction blood ( vessels near skin skin becomes narrow ) - 68Describe how the liver can be damaged as it removes alcohol.Toxins dont allow it to function.
- 69Describe how the action of depressants and stimulants differ on the nervous system.They effect the brain.
- 70Explain how negative feedback mechanisms help to maintain a constant internal environment.- Shivering warms you up, so you stop shivering
- Sweating cools you down so your temperature goes down - 71Growing towards light is called ............ phototropism. And away from gravity is called negative .......................... Growing towards gravity is called .................1. Positive
2. Geotropism
3. Posiitve geotropism - 72Give 4 commercial uses of plant hormones.- Weedkillers

- 74Describe an experiment to prove that plants grow towards light.Auxin is a plant hormone responsible for controlling the direction of growth of root tips and stem tips in response to different stimuli including light and gravity.
- 75LIst characteristics that are as a result of both genes and environment- Body mass

- 77How many chromosones in an egg cell?23
- 78How many chromosones in a sperm cell?23

- 81List 3 causes of variation.- Environmental
- Genetic
- - 82Name 4 inherited disorders- red-green colour blindness
- sickle cell anaemia
- cystic fibrosis. - 83Explain how auxin brings about shoot curvature in terms of cell elongation.In a shoot, the shaded side contains more auxin. This means that the shaded side grows longer, causing the shoot to bend towards the light.
- 84Define homozygous.An individual who has two alleles for an inherited characteristic
- 85Define heterozygousAn individual who has two different alleles for an inherted characteristics.
- 86Whats genotype?Your genotype is your complete heritable genetic identity; it is your unique genome
- 87What phenotype?Your phenotype is a description of your actual physical characteristics.
- 88Define dominant.Prominent and stronger gene.
- 89Define recessive.The weaker gene.
