What is energy?
![Page 6: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Energy Laws
Energy is defined as ‘the ability to do work’.
It takes a variety of different forms, for example, light, heat, sound, electrical, chemical and atomic energy.
It can be changed from one form to another.
It cannot be created or destroyed.
It is measured in joules (J)

What forms of energy are there?
![Page 8: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Forms of energy
Energy can exist in several forms:
The most common is chemical energy.
This joins atoms or molecules to one another.
Energy is needed to join these bonds.
When the bonds are broken, energy is released.

Catabolic reactions – reactions that
involve breaking down molecules and
releasing energy. (Respiration)
Anabolic Reactions – Building complex
molecules from simple substances and
using energy. Eg. Enzymes and hormones.
Metabolism= Anabolism+catabolism

Why do organisms need energy?
Metabolism
All the reactions that take place in living organisms involve energy
Movement
Both within and organism(e.g. the circulation of blood) and of the organism itself (e.g. locomotion)
Active transport
Of ions and molecules against a concentration gradient across plasma membranes.
Maintenance, repair and division
Of cells and of organelles within the cells.
Production of substances
Used within organisms, for example, enzymes and hormones.
Maintenance of body temperature
In birds and mammals. These organisms are endothermic and need energy to replace that lost as heat to the environment.

Activities involved in supplying energy to the cells.
![Page 17: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
What systems are involved in supplying
energy to cells?
The activities involved in energy
supply include the roles of the
cardiovascular, respiratory and
digestive systems.
![Page 18: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Role of the digestive system in energy
supply to the body.
Responsible for taking in food and water.
Uses enzymes to break up complex molecules into
simpler, soluble materials.
These simpler molecules are then able to pass into
capillaries to be transported around the body.
Eg. Carbohydrates are broken down to smaller glucose
units than can be absorbed in to the capillaries to be
transported and delivered around the body.
![Page 19: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Role of the cardiovascular system in
supplying energy to the body.
Once the simpler food substances
have been absorbed into the
capillaries of the digestive system,
these simpler materials are taken to
the liver and body cells via the
bloodstream.
This is driven by the pumping action
of the heart
![Page 20: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Role of the respiratory system in supplying
energy to body cells.
The lungs constantly refresh lung oxygen and dispose of waste products such as carbon dioxide and water.
Dissolved oxygen passes through the thin alveolar walls into the bloodstream and is transported to cells.
![Page 21: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
How does the body release energy?
Body cells have a constant delivery of raw materials from these
systems.
Raw materials such as oxygen, glucose and other nutrients are
continually delivered by the bodily systems to the bodily cells.
This allows the breakdown (catabolic) process of glucose
oxidation which releases energy to do work.
This takes place in the cytoplasm and mitochondria of the cell.
This process is called RESPIRATION

Your heart is a muscle about the size of your fist.
It is constantly beating, on average about 1 beat every second.
Open and close your
fist, once every
second. Do you get
tired quickly?

How blood flows through our heart. Both sides of the heart work together
One complete contraction and relaxation is called a heartbeat.
After contraction and the compartment has been emptied of blood, it relaxes, to
be filled with blood once more.
The ventricles contain more muscle than the atria and so generate more pressure
to force the blood a greater distance.
The LV has a thicker muscular wall – why do you think this is?
How does blood flow through the heart?
![Page 32: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Why are their differences in the thickness of the walls of the chambers?
The muscle of each chamber contracts to create increased pressure in the blood.
The higher the pressure created in the heart, the further it will push the blood.
Explain the thickness of the following chambers,
Atria: The muscle of the atria is very thin.
Right ventricle: The walls of the right ventricle are thicker than the walls of the atria.
Left ventricle: The walls of the left ventricle can be two or three times thicker than those of the right ventricle.
![Page 33: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Why are their differences in the thickness of the walls of the chambers?
Atria:
The muscle of the atria is very thin. This is because these chambers do not need to create much pressure. Their function is to push the blood to the ventricles.
![Page 34: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Why are their differences in the thickness of the walls of the chambers?
Right ventricle:
The walls of the right ventricle are thicker than the walls of the atria. This enables the right ventricle to pump blood out of the heart. But the walls of the right ventricle are much thinner than those of the left ventricle. The right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs. The lungs are in the chest cavity beside the heart, so the blood does not need to travel very far. Also, the lungs contain a lot of very fine capillaries that are in close contact with the walls of the alveoli. The alveoli walls are very thin and there is very little or no tissue fluid. So the capillaries are not supported and could easily burst. The pressure of the blood must be kept down to prevent the capillaries in the lungs bursting.
![Page 35: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Why are their differences in the thickness of the walls of the chambers?
Left ventricle:
the walls of the left ventricle can be two or three times thicker than those of the right ventricle. The blood from the left ventricle is pumped out through the aorta and needs sufficient pressure to overcome the resistance of the systemic circulation.
![Page 36: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
What is the cardiac cycle?
The sequence of events that make up one heart beat.
There are two phases to the beating of the heart: contraction (systole) and relaxation (diastole).
Contraction occurs separately in the ventricles and the atria and is therefore described in two stages.
For some of the time relaxation takes place simultaneously in all chambers of the heart and is therefore treated as a single phase.
![Page 37: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

How do valves control the flow of blood through the heart?
Valves prevent the backflow of blood.
Examples of such valves include Atrioventricular valves
Semi-lunar valves
Pocket valves

What causes a valve to open and what causes it close?
![Page 46: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
What causes a valve to open and what causes it close?
A valve will open when there is a higher pressure behindthe valve than in front of it.
For example, when there is a higher pressure in the atrium (where the blood has come from) compared with the ventricle (where the blood is passing into) then the atrioventricular valve (between thje atrium and ventricle) will open.
![Page 47: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
What causes a valve to open and what causes it close?
A valve will close when there is a higher pressure in front of the valve than behind it.
For example, when there is a higher pressure in the ventricle (where the blood has passed into) compared with the atrium (where the blood has come from) then the antrioventricularvalve (between the atrium and ventricle) will close.

What makes the heart sound?
The familiar lub-dup sound made by the heart is actually made by the valves closing.
The first sound, lub, is made by the atrioventricular valves closing as the ventricles start to contract.
The second sound, dup, is made by the semilunar valves closing as the ventricles start to relax.
The atrioventricular valves snap shut, so this noise is louder than the closing of the semilunar valves, which shut because blood is accumulating in their pockets.

What is myogenic stimulation of the heart?
Cardiac muscle is myogenic, i.e. its contraction is initiated from within the muscle itself, rather than nervous impulses from outside (neurogenic), as is the case with other muscles.
![Page 51: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
How does the autonomic nervous system control heart rate?
Changes to the heart rate are controlled by a region of the brain called the medulla oblongata.

How does the autonomic nervous system control heart rate?
The medulla oblongata has two centres:
1. A centre that increases heart rate, which is linked to the heart’s sinoatrial node by the sympatheticnervous system.
2. A centre that decreases heart rate, which is linked to the heart’s sinoatrial node by the parasympathetic nervous system.

What is meant by cardiac output and how is it calculated?
Cardiac output is the volume of blood pumped by one ventricle of the heart in one minute. It is usually measured in dm3min-1 and depends upon two factors:
The heart rate (the rate at which the heart beats)
The stroke volume (volume of blood pumped out at each beat).

There are 3 types of blood vessel within the cardiovascular system.
These are Arteries, veins and capillaries
Each can be identified by their different properties and appearance.
Blood Vessels

Arteries carry blood away from the heart
Pressure is high and when it is cut it spurts out
Artery walls are thick and very elastic.
The blood they carry is bright red with high oxygen content.
Arteries

Veins take blood back to the
heart
Veins have low blood pressure
and when cut only oozes out.
Vein walls are thin and not very
elastic
The blood they carry is dark red
due to low oxygen content
Contains a valve to prevent
back flow

Within the Capillaries blood travels from the arteries to the veins between the cells
The blood pressure in the Capillaries is medium.
Capillary walls are thin, allowing oxygen and nutrients to pass out into cells
Cell waste products pass into the capillary

Components of blood:
Blood contains a mixture of cells and plasma,
Red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.
Plasma: This is a thick fluid which
contains dissolved proteins, sugar,
fats, salts and minerals.

Red blood cells: Red blood cells (RBC) contain
no nucleus, they make up 40-50% of blood volume and they are produced in the bone marrow from stem cells.
Red blood cells contain an iron rich protein called
haemoglobin which picks up oxygen as blood passes through the lungs. Red blood cells are biconcave
in shape to increase surface area for oxygen transport.

White blood cells:White blood cells (leukocytes) are found in blood but they are also found in other tissues in the body. There are several different types of white blood cells. Most are produced in bone marrow and can be found in the spleen, liver and lymph glands. They play a major role In defending the body from disease producing bacteria, viruses and fungi, hence they are a major part of the immune system.

What is digestion?
In humans, as with many organisms, digestion takes place in two stages:
1. Physical breakdown
2. Chemical digestion

How does the digestive system break down food physically?
If the food is large, it is broken down into smaller pieces by means of structures such as the teeth.
Food is churned by the muscles in the stomach wall and this also physically breaks it up.
This not only makes it possible to ingest the food but also provides a large surface area for chemical digestion.
![Page 76: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
How does the digestive system break down food chemically?
Chemical digestion breaks down large, insoluble molecules into smaller, soluble ones. It is carried out by enzymes.
All digestive enzymes function by hydrolysis.
The general term for such enzymes is hydrolases.
![Page 77: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
What is the role of enzymes in digestion?
There are different types of digestive enzymes, three of which are particularly important:
1. Carbohydras's – break down carbohydrates, ultimately to monosaccharides.
2. Lipases – break down lipids (fats and oils) into glycerol and fatty acids.
3. Proteases- break down proteins, ultimately into amino acids.
![Page 78: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
What happens to the simple molecules produced at the end of digestion?
Once the large food molecules have been hydrolysed into monosaccharides, glycerol, fatty acids and amino acids, they are absorbed by various means from the small intestine into the blood.
They are carried to different parts of the body and can either be: Respired by the cells of the body
Or, built up again into large molecules, although these are not necessarily of the same type as the molecules from which they were derived.

Amylase
The mouth performs two functions:
1. Mechanical digestion
involves chewing – teeth chop and grind food into small pieces.
2. Mixing food with saliva
saliva starts the break down of carbohydrates (starch) using an enzymecalled amylase.

What happens in the mouth?
Three pairs of salivary glands pour their secretions known as saliva into the mouth.
Saliva, a digestive juice, contains an enzyme known as salivary amylase, which begins the digestion of carbohydrates as well as lubricating the mouth and helping bolus formation.
![Page 83: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
The Oesophagus
After being swallowed the food travels down the oesophagus.
![Page 84: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
What happens in the oesophagus?
The oesophagus transports the food bolus from the back of the mouth (the pharynx) to the stomach in the abdomen.
The swallowed bolus is in the oesophagus for a few seconds only and no enzymes are secreted here, although salivary amylase will continue to act during this brief journey.
The oesophagus is mainly a transit for food boluses which it moves by muscular contractions known as peristalsis.
![Page 85: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
The Stomach The stomach continues to mix the food with digestive enzymes. Amylasecontinues to digest carbohydrates
Proteins are digested in the stomach and small intestine. Protease enzymes break down proteins into amino acids. Digestion of proteins in the stomach is helped by stomach acid, which is strong hydrochloric acid. This also kills harmful micro-organisms that may be in the food.
![Page 86: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
What happens in the stomach?
Gastric glands produce gastric juice that contains gastric protease and hydrochloric acid. The gastric juice works on proteins.
In babies, another enzyme, rennin, solidifies and digests milk protein.
The pH of the stomach is 1-2; this is strongly acidic.
The epithelial lining on the stomach contains goblet cells, which produce thick mucus to protect the lining from acid erosion.
The stomach empties the chyme in spurts into the duodenum through the pyloric sphincter, a thick ring of muscle that alternately contracts and relaxes.
![Page 87: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
Small Intestine Lipase enzymes break down fat into fatty acids and glycerol. Digestion of fat in the small intestine is helped by bile, made in the liver. Bile breaks the fat into small droplets that are easier for the lipase enzymes to work on.
Lipase
![Page 88: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
What happens in the duodenum?
The duodenum is the first C shaped part of the small intestine.
The liver and the pancreas pour their secretions or juices into the duodenum.
The duodenal wall also contains glands which secrete enzyme rich juices (called succus entericus) that continue the digestive process on proteins, carbohydrates and lipids (fats).
These enzymes work either on the surface or inside the epithelial lining cells.
![Page 89: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
What happens in the ileum?
The remainder of the small intestine, known as the ileum, is mainly concerned with the absorption of the now fully digested food.
It is specially adapted for this by its: Long length Folded interior Lining covered in many thousands of tiny projections called villi Epithelial cells of villi covered in microvilli, projections so small that
they can only be detected using a microscope.
These adaptations enormously increase the surface area for absorption of nutrients from digested food.

The Small Intestine- Microvilli
The inside of the intestine is folded and covered in microvilli. The microvilli increase the surface area of the intestine to increase the absorption of carbohydrates, amino acids and fats
![Page 92: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
What are villi?
The folded walls of the small intestine are further folded, forming finger-like projections, about 1mm long, called villi.
The villi considerably increase the surface area of the small intestine and therefore accelerate the rate of absorption.

What are villi?
Each villus has a thin wall, lined with epithelial cells.
On the inside of each villus there is a rich network of blood capillaries.

The appendix is used to help some animals digest cellulose in plants. In humans the appendix has a very limited role as humans do not need to digest cellulose for carbohydrates.
Large Intestine
By the time food reaches the large intestine all useful nutrients have been absorbed into the blood. All that remains are waste products of digestion and water.
The water is very valuable so is absorbed into the blood stream
Waste products pass through the large intestine to be stored in the rectum before passing out of the anus as faeces.
![Page 95: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
What happens in the colon?
In the right-hand lower corner of the abdomen, the small intestine meets the large intestine.
The large intestine consists of the caecum and appendix (which have no function in the human digestive system), colon and rectum, ending in the sphincter (the anus) for the elimination of faeces.
The colon has a puckered appearance because the outer longitudinal muscle coat splits into three bands and the circular muscle bulges out between the bands.
![Page 96: The functioning of body systems in relation to …...Assessment Objectives: By the end of this topic you will be able to: Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042117/5e9533cd8b6bb759034c944c/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
What happens in the colon?
The function of the colon is to reabsorb water from the food waste. This results in semi-solid faeces.
Faeces contain: Cellulose (fibre or roughage) from plant cell walls from fruit and
vegetables. Dead bacteria, including the usually harmless bacteria living in the
large intestine that have died a natural death, and other bacteria, which are often killed by the hydrochloric acid in the stomach.
Scraped off cells from the gut lining.
The brown colour of faeces is due to bile pigments.

Liver and Pancreas
The liver and the pancreas play important part in digestion. The liver produces bile, which helps the digestion of fat.
The pancreas produces chemicals called digestive enzymes such as:
Protease - proteins
Carbohydrase (amylase) -carbohydrates
Lipase - fats

What happens to the major products of digestion?
Peptides and amino acids are nitrogenous compounds; they travel via the bloodstream to areas of need in body cells.
They are important in making enzymes, some hormones, plasma proteins, new cells (growth) and in repair processes.

What happens to the major products of digestion?
Surplus amino acids are broken down in the liver, as they cannot be stored.
Some parts of the molecules are used for energy but the nitrogen-containing part is converted into urea in the liver, by a process called deamination, and excreted by the kidneys in the urine.

What happens to the major products of digestion?
Sugars, chiefly glucose, are transported to cells to be broken down in respiration to release energy in the form of ATP.

What happens to the major products of digestion?
Fatty acids travel from the lacteals, through the lymphatic system into the main veins of the neck; this circuitous route enables smaller quantities of potential harmful lipids to enter the circulation gradually.
Glycerol and fatty acids are is used in respiration to release energy in the form of ATP.
Glycerol and fatty acids may also be reconverted into a form of fat that can be stored under the skin and around organs.
This can be used in respiration after glycogen stores have been depleted.
