What is meant by a balanced diet?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
A diet that keeps you healthy and provide you with enough energy.
Must have:- Carbohydrates for energy- Fats for warmth and energy- Protein for growth and repair
- Fibre to keep things moving in the digestive system - Vitamins and minerals – to keep you healthy

Why do people need different diets?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Everyone is different and so:
- Need more protein for muscle growth- Carbohydrates for energy
People also have different ‘metabolic rates’ which is the rate at which chemical reactions take place inside the body. Men’s tend be higher rates and it is controlled genetically.
![Page 8: Biology Core Science Revision Flash Cards Produced by Mr P Scutt.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e5c5503460f94b551ff/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What are the possible effects of having an unbalanced diet?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Obesity – excess carbohydrates – leads also to artritus, diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease.
Cholesterol – excess saturated fat – leads to fatty deposits in arteries and so leads to heart disease.
Salt – leads to high blood pressure and heart problems.
Too little food – slow growth, fatigue, infection, irregular periods, scurvy (vitamin C deficiency)

Describe the ways that the body defends against pathogens.
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Skin – barrier to pathogensMucus and hairs – trap pathogens in nose and breathing system
Cut are sealed quickly by platelets in the blood
Immune system can kick in if enters:1. Can consume them – engulf and eat them.
2. Can produce antibodies to lock on to invading cells and kill them. These need time to be produced. 3. Produce antitoxins – counteract toxins produced by bacteria
![Page 16: Biology Core Science Revision Flash Cards Produced by Mr P Scutt.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e5c5503460f94b551ff/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
How do vaccinations work?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Small amounts of dead or inactive microorganisms are injected into the bodyThese carry antigens which cause your body to produce antibodies
This means that the body has the necessary antibodies if the person become infected with the live and dangerous microorganism.
Sometimes a booster is required to ensure that the body have enough antibodies.
Used for MMR (Measles, mumps and rubella)

Pros Cons
Kill bacteria Only kill bacteria
Important that whole course is completed to kill all bacteria
Over use can lead to antibiotic resistance as bacteria mutate,
e.g. MRSA.
Specific antibiotics kill specific bacteria

What is a synapse and how does it work?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
A synapse is a junction between two nerve cells (neurones)They work by producing a chemical (neurotransmitter)
Between a gap. If enough neurotransmitter is produced it will stimulate the next neurone
![Page 28: Biology Core Science Revision Flash Cards Produced by Mr P Scutt.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e5c5503460f94b551ff/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
What are the main steps within a reflex arc?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Stage How it prevents harm being caused.
Stimulus What causes the reflex
Receptor The cells that detect the change
Sensory neurone
Carries an electrical impulse to the CNS
CNS Central nervous system, made up of the brain and spinal cord. A relay neurone is found here to bridge the gap between the sensory and motor neurone
Motor neurone Carries an electrical impulse to the effector
Effector A muscle or gland that responds by moving or releasing a hormone
Response What happens as a result – e.g. movement

What are the main stages in the menstrual cycle?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Stage Day Event Hormones
1 1-4 Bleeding – the uterus breakdown FSH from pituitary gland cause egg in ovary to develop and stimulates oestrogen production
2 4-14 Lining of the uterus builds up with fresh food and blood supplies.
Oestrogen from ovary is produced to stimulate lining of uterus to develop. FSH is stopped.
3 14 Egg is released - ovulation LH from pituitary gland causes ovulation
4 28 Lining is maintained if fertilised egg is received. Process starts again if no fertilised egg
Progesterone from ovary, maintains lining

How can we control fertility?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Reduce fertility (the pill) Increase
Oestrogen – prevents egg release as stops FSH which would normally cause the egg to develop in the ovary.
Injections of FSH to help more eggs to develop.
Progesterone – produces a cervical mucus which prevents the sperm reaching the egg.
Injections of LH to help ovulation.
ISSUES: 99% effective, can lead to blood clots, can reduce risk of cancer, side effects of headaches and sickness, doesn’t prevent STDs
IVF – where eggs are taken from the ovary and fertilised with sperm outside of the body. They are then rejected once they are confirmed to be successfully dividing. Prior to procedure, FSH and LH are used to increase egg production.

What are auxins and where are they found?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
They are plant hormones that control growth
Found in the tops of shoots and roots
They respond to light (phototropism), gravity (geotropism), water (hydrotropism)
They move backwards to cause cell elongation just behind the tip.

Steroids:- Increase muscle size
- Increase heart rate – pump blood quicker around the body and so deliver more glucose and oxygen to cells.
Negatives:- Can cause high blood pressure- Unfair advantage in competition
- Serious health problems

How are new drugs tested?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
1. Tested on human cells and tissues in a lab.2. Tested on live animals – see if works, any toxicity, best dosage (in UK each drug must be tested on 2 animals)
3. Human volunteers in a clinical trial:i. Group 1 – healthy people to see if any side effects – very lose dose given.
ii. People with the illness – find optimum doseiii. Given to two groups – one has a placebo and the other the actual drug.
These tests on humans are ‘blind-tests’ so they don’t know if they have the placebo or the actual drug and therefore cant influence the results.

How are animals adapted?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Desert Animals Artic Animals
Surface area to volume ratio
Large – so lose more heat Small – so retain heat
Water loss Limited by – producing concentrated urine, little sweat produced, find shelter
Not as much of a problem.
Insulation Very thin layers of fat – can have a hump instead
Lots of blubber to keep warm and also as an energy store.Thick fury coats.
Camouflage Sandy coloured so avoid predators
White fur to avoid predators

Produced by Mr P Scutt
Air pollution Water pollution
Lichens – sensitive to sulfur dioxide (from car exhausts). Lots of lichens, clean air.
Mayfly lavae – Raw sewage in water means that more bacteria grow and so use up more oxygen. More larvae, cleaner the water.
Maggots/Sludgeworms – lots, means it is very polluted.

What do pyramids of biomass show?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Show the mass of living material in each stage of a food chain.
As you go down a food chain, the biomass reduces because:
- Energy is used up at each level – respiration, growth, maintaining body temperature, producing waste, - Not all of the animal is eaten by the next animal in the food chain
Start with a producer – plant which uses energy from the Sun. Then primary consumer
Then secondary consumer.

What happens in Decay?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Plants and animals are made up of Carbon, Oxygen, NitrogenWhen they die, they are broken up by microorganisms
The miorco-organisms respire and so release carbon dioxide to the atmosphere
They need warm coniditions with oxygen – e.g. compost bin

What are the main stages in the carbon cycle?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
The cycle of carbon around the world. The key movements are:
Respiration – releases carbon dioxideBurning fossil fuels/wood – releases carbon dioxide
Decay of dead matter – releases carbon dioxide
Photosynthesis – absorbs carbon dioxide Eating plants – moves carbon to animals and is used to form carbohydrates, fats and proteins

Sexual Asexual
Example Cells involved
2 x Gametes – your sex cells – sperm and egg.
Normal cells – skin cells,
Offspring Genetically different from parents as genes mix.
Identical – Clones.
Number of chromosomes in cells
23 in each gamete producing offspring with 46 when combined.
46 in parent, 46 in offspring
Used for Reproduction Growth and repair

What are the main steps in genetic engineered insulin?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Useful gene identifiedGene cut out of chromosome
Using enzyme
Enzyme use to cut another piece of DNA from a different organism (usually a bacteria)Ideal gene inserted
Bacteria divide and produce more copies of new DNA
Can be used for transferring gene for different characteristics, e.g. fruitiness in tomatoes, resistance to insects, replace faulty genes, produce insulin

What is evolution and how can it be explained using natural selection?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Evolution is how from simple cells, more complex organisms have come about over time.
Darwin – suggested every species has variation (differences) and that because of natural selection, whereby animals with the characteristics most suitable to environment survive and reproduce. Therefore, their genes are passed on to the next generation.
Difference in genetics can be due to mutations – where the DNA is slightly changes. Sometimes this has no effect, at others times new characteristic can come about.

How does Darwin’s work differ from Lamarck?
Produced by Mr P Scutt
Darwin – evolution due to natural selection and survival of the fittest.
Lamarck – characteristics that were used a lot by animals became more developed in its life time, e.g. rabbit used its legs to run and so its legs got longer.
