Biology transport in humans key terms and stuff to remember (not all!!)

Anthrosderosis

The process of building up plaque in the arteries

Coronary heart disease

When plaque builds up inside the coronary arteries that supply the Heart with oxygen

Heart attack

When the supply of blood to the heart is blocked

Blood clot and thrombosis

A mass of blood that forms when platelets proteins and cells stick together reducing blood flow which restricts movement of oxygen in the blood and blocks blood vessels

Risk factors that make coronary heart disease more likely

Smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol diet, high saturated fat diet, family history, lack of exercise

Pulmonary

Lungs

Hepatic

Liver

Renal

Kidneys

Arteries carry blood

Away from the heart

Veins carry blood

Towards the heart

What happens in stages 1 and 2 of phagocytosis?

Pseudopodium surround or engulf for the bacterium and the pathogen is inside the phagosome

What happens in stage three of phagocytosis

Vesicle fuses with the phagosome and enzymes digest the pathogen

What happens in stage four phagocytosis?

Products of digestion are expelled from the phagosome
