-drugs/ unprotected sex

-HIV — AIDS — immune system no longer weakens

-

32
New cards

What are the Protists? cause - system - spread

Maleria - mosquito bite in tropical regions

-muscle pains / headache / sleep / sick

-damage blood cells = carry O2

-damage liver = process chemical

-insect repellent / long sleeve

33
New cards

What are 3 functions of red blood cells and why?

  • contains haemoglobin - bind oxygen

  • no nucleas - more space

  • bioconcave shape - larger surface area

34
New cards

What are the functions of white blood cells?

  • destroy pathogens

  • lymphocytes - produce antibodies

  • phagocytize - engulf pathogens

35
New cards

What are the functions of platelets why?

blood clotting - stop bleeding

prevents loosing blood in the tissue

36
New cards

What are the functions of plasma why?

  • consists of cells, nutrients, hormones

  • carries waste product

  • regulates blood pressure / maintains boy weight

  • 55% volume carries everything but oxygen

37
New cards

What are the 4 components in the blood?

  • white blood cell

  • red blood cell

  • plasma

  • platelets

38
New cards

what are the 4 characteristics of the arteries?
