Challenge How does our body get the nutrients present in these food? 3 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd 4 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd 5 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Chapter 5 Nutrition in Humans 5.1 What Is Nutrition? 5.2 What Is Digestion? 5.3 What Is Absorption? 5.4 What Happens to the Absorbed Nutrients? 5.5 What Are the Effects of Alcohol Consumption? 6 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd 5.1 What Is Nutrition? Learning Outcome(s) Describe the functions of the various parts of the digestive system: mouth, salivary glands, oesophagus, stomach, duodenum, pancreas, gall bladder, liver, ileum, colon, rectum, anus, in relation to ingestion, digestion, absorption, assimilation and egestion of food, as appropriate. Describe peristalsis in terms of rhythmic wave-like contractions of the muscles to mix and propel the contents of the alimentary canal. 7 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd What Is Nutrition? Textbook Page 74 Nutrition is the process by which organisms obtain food and energy for growth, repair and maintenance of the body. It consists of the following processes: Feeding or ingestion: Food is taken into the body. Digestion: Large food molecules are broken down into smaller, soluble molecules that can be absorbed into the body cells. Absorption: Nutrients move from the small intestine into the bloodstream. Assimilation: Nutrients are used by cells to provide energy or to make new cytoplasm for growth. Egestion: Undigested matter is removed from the body. 8 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Group Activity Why does food need to be digested? 9 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Video Time! Food moving through your body https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QYwscALNn g 10 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd The Mouth and the Buccal Cavity Textbook Page 75 Food enters the body through the mouth, which leads into the buccal cavity. 11 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Consider… Textbook Page 74 Why do people choke when they talk while eating? What prevents food from going down your windpipe? 12 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Pharynx Textbook Page 76 It connects the buccal cavity to the oesophagus, larynx (voice-box) and trachea (windpipe). The glottis is a slit located at the larynx. Both food and air pass through the pharynx when they enter the body. Air passes through the trachea, while food passes through the oesophagus. The epiglottis closes over the glottis to prevent food from reaching the larynx and trachea when swallowing. People tend to choke when they talk while swallowing, as the epiglottis cannot fully close. 13 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Video Time! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4FOGogOk4 14 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd E Oesophagus Textbook Page 76 It is a narrow, muscular tube that passes through the thorax (chest) and diaphragm. It connects the mouth and stomach. It consists of a layer of longitudinal muscles and a layer of circular muscles. (inner layer) (outer layer) Note: Circular and longitudinal muscles are present along the whole gut from the oesophagus to the rectum. 15 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Peristalsis Textbook Page 77 It refers to the rhythmic, wave-like muscular contractions in the wall of the alimentary canal. It enables food to be mixed with digestive juices and helps to push or propel the food along the gut. When the circular muscles contract, they constrict the lumen. When the longitudinal muscles contract, they shorten and widen the lumen. These muscles are antagonistic, so when one set of muscles contracts, the other relaxes. 16 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook When the circular muscles contract, the longitudinal muscles relax. As Page 77 a result, the gut becomes narrower and longer (constricts). The food is squeezed or pushed forward. When the longitudinal muscles contract, the circler muscles relax. The gut becomes wider and shorter (dilates), allowing food to enter the lumen. 17 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Stomach Textbook Page 77 Lies beneath the diaphragm, to the left side of the abdomen, and is partly covered by the liver Has numerous pits and gastric glands found in the stomach lining Has gastric glands which secrete gastric juice that play an important part in digestion 18 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Small Intestine Textbook Page 78 Consists of a U-shaped duodenum and the much-coiled ileum Carries out most of the digestive processes Contains glands, in the wall lining, that secrete digestive enzymes Enzymes in the small intestine speed up the digestion of food Absorbs water and nutrients from food, 19 which usually takes place in the ileum © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Large Intestine Textbook Page 78 Is shorter and broader than the small intestine Consists of the colon, rectum and anus Absorbs remaining water and mineral salts from undigested food Temporarily stores faeces in the rectum 20 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Liver Textbook Page 78 Largest gland in the body, located below the diaphragm. Three blood vessels are attached to the lower surface of the liver: the hepatic portal vein, the hepatic vein, and the hepatic artery. Liver cells produce and secrete bile, which contain bile salts that aid in the emulsification of fats. 21 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Gall bladder Textbook Page 78 The gall bladder is attached to the liver. Bile, produced by the liver, is stored temporarily in the gall bladder. When the gall bladder contracts, bile flows via the bile duct into the duodenum, which is part of the small intestine. 22 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Pancreas Textbook Page 79 It is connected to the duodenum by the pancreatic duct. The bile duct joins the pancreatic duct before the pancreatic duct opens into the duodenum. It produces pancreatic juice, which contains digestive enzymes such as amylase, lipase and protease. Secretes the hormones insulin and glucagon, which help regulate the blood sugar concentration in the body. 23 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd What is acid reflux? How can it be prevented? https://youtu.be/Og5xAdC8EUI 24 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Recall this definition that you learned in the previous section: Digestion The process whereby large food molecules are broken down into smaller, soluble molecules that can be absorbed into the body cells. Which processes from the previous section before would you categorise as aiding in digestion? Chewing Secretion and mixing of saliva with food Closing of the epiglottis Peristalsis Secretion of gastric juice into the stomach Secretion of bile into the small intestine Absorption of water in the small and large intestines 25 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Video Time!

Learning Outcome(s) Describe the functions of enzymes (e.g. amylase, maltase, protease, lipase) in digestion, listing the substrates and end-products. 28 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Digestion Page 80 Physical Digestion Chemical Digestion Involves the mechanical break-up of Involves the breaking down of large food into small particles. molecules in food, such as proteins, Examples: starch and fats, into small, soluble Food being chewed in the mouth Churning action of the stomach molecules that can be absorbed. Emulsification of fats by bile salts This is done with the help of enzymes. Physical digestion increases the surface area-to-volume ratio of ingested food so that digestive enzymes can act of the food particles more effectively 29 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Processes That Take Place in the Mouth Page 80 1. Salivary glands are stimulated to secrete saliva. 2. Saliva mixes with the food and softens it. 3. The salivary amylase in saliva digests starch to maltose. 4. The optimum pH for salivary amylase is at pH 7. 5. The food is broken down into smaller pieces by chewing, which increases the surface area-to-volume ratio for salivary amylase to work on. 6. The food is rolled into small round masses called boli. 7. The boli are swallowed and passed down into the oesophagus via the pharynx. 30 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Processes That Take Place in the Stomach Page 81 1. Gastric glands are stimulated to secrete gastric juice. 2. Peristalsis churns and breaks up the food and mixes the food with gastric juice. 3. Gastric juice contains hydrochloric acid, mucus and protease (enzyme that digests proteins). 4. Hydrochloric acid (about pH 2) has the following functions: – stops the action of salivary amylase by denaturing it – provides a low pH environment in the stomach for protease to digest proteins – kills microorganisms in food. 5. Protease digests proteins into polypeptides. 6. The food remains in the stomach for 3–4 hours, becoming partially digested substance called chyme. 7. Chyme passes into the duodenum in small amounts. 31 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Processes That Take Place in the Small Intestine Page 82 1. As chyme enters the duodenum, it stimulates the pancreas to secrete pancreatic juice. 2. The pancreatic juice passes to the duodenum via the pancreatic duct. 3. Pancreatic juice contains the enzymes pancreatic amylase, protease and pancreatic lipase. 4. The gall bladder releases bile (produced by the liver and stored in the gall bladder) into the duodenum via the bile duct. As bile does not contain enzymes, it cannot digest food. Bile speeds up the digestion of fats by breaking up large fat molecules into smaller fat molecules. 5. The small intestines produces enzymes maltase, protease and lipase. 6. The acidic chyme from the stomach is neutralised by the alkaline fluids from the pancreas, gall bladder and small intestine, thus achieving a pH of 8, which is suitable for digestion in the small intestine. 32 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Past to Present Page 81 Challenge Do you think his way of proving to the scientific community is an example to follow, or was he being too reckless? Explain your position. 33 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Digestion of Different Foods Page 82 Carbohydrate Digestion Examples of carbohydrates include starch, sucrose and cellulose. Carbohydrates are digested by carbohydrases such as amylase and maltase. Starch is broken down into maltose by amylase in the mouth and small intestine. Maltose is broken down into glucose by maltase in the small intestine. 34 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Protein Digestion Page 82 Proteins are digested by proteases. Protein digestion starts in the stomach, where stomach protease digests proteins to polypeptides. The undigested proteins that enter the small intestine are digested by intestinal protease to polypeptides. The polypeptides produced are further digested to amino acids by intestinal protease. 35 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Fat Digestion Page 83 Bile is released into the duodenum, and the bile salts emulsify fats by lowering the surface tension of the fats. Thus, the fats break into tiny fat droplets, increasing the surface area-to-volume ratio for enzyme action. Emulsified fats are digested by lipases into fatty acids and glycerol in the small intestine. 36 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Summary Substrate Enzyme Product Starch Amylase Maltose Maltose Maltase Glucose Protein Protease Polypeptides Polypeptides Protease Amino acids Fats Lipase Fatty acids and glycerol 37 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Biology Connect Page 84 Scan the QR code on TB p. 84 and have students take part in an interactive animation on digestion of food. 38 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Organs and Enzymes Involved in Digestion Pages 83–84 39 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Group Work Work together to draw a concept map on digestion.

How do you think diffusion and active transport are related to absorption in the small intestine? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufCiGz75D Ak 41 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Video Time! How does absorption in the small intestine occur? 42 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Chapter 5 Nutrition in Humans 5.1 What Is Nutrition? 5.2 What Is Digestion? 5.3 What Is Absorption? 5.4 What Happens to the Absorbed Nutrients? 5.5 What Are the Effects of Alcohol Consumption? 43 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd 5.3 What Is Absorption? Learning Outcome(s) Explain how the structure of a villus, including the capillaries and lacteal, is suited for its function of absorption. 44 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Absorption Pages 85–86 Absorption is the process whereby digested food substances are absorbed into the body cells. Products of digestion such as simple sugars, fatty acids and amino acids are absorbed throughout the small intestine, especially the ileum Water and mineral salts are absorbed by the small intestine and colon. The small intestine absorbs most of this water before the food moves to the colon, where much of the remaining water is absorbed 45 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook How is the small intestine adapted for absorption? Page 85 Adaptation Function Inner surface has numerous finger-like Increases surface area for absorption projections called villi The epithelium (wall) of the villus is one cell Provides a short diffusion distance thick for nutrients to pass through The cells of the epithelium have many Further increases surface area for microvilli absorption 46 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Page 85 Adaptation Function Each villus has many blood Capillaries allow blood to transport capillaries the absorbed glucose and amino acids away, in order to maintain a diffusion gradient Each villus contains a lacteal Allows the transport of absorbed fats away, so a steep diffusion gradient is maintained The epithelial cells contain many Mitochondria provide energy for the mitochondria active transport of nutrients into the villi 47 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Page 86 How does absorption take place in the small intestine? Glucose and amino acids are absorbed by diffusion into the blood capillaries of the villi Glucose and amino acids are also absorbed by active transport. This happens when there is a lower concentration of these digested food substances in the lumen of the small intestine than in the blood capillaries. Glycerol and fatty acids diffuse into the epithelium. Here they combine to form minute fat globules that enter the lacteals. 48 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Video Time! Food absorption in the small intestine 49 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Tech Connect – Capsule Endoscopy Page 87 In the traditional procedure, the doctor inserts a tube, with a light and a camera at its tip, into the patient’s stomach via the mouth. In the new technology, a patient swallows a capsule containing a camera, which takes pictures as it passes through the gut, and sends them to a computer. 50 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Page 87 What happens to undigested and unabsorbed matter? Undigested and unabsorbed matter is stored temporarily, in the rectum. It is then discharged as faeces through the anus (egestion). 51 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Living without a large intestine Some individuals suffer through diseases which result in them getting a total proctocolectomy — a removal of the large intestine. Consider the following questions: 1. Why is it possible for the large intestine to be completely removed but not the small intestine? 2. What side effects might one experience if their large intestine were to be removed? 3. How would patients deal with such side effects? 52 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Page 88 Does a camel store food in its hump? 53 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Chapter 5 Nutrition in Humans 5.1 What Is Nutrition? 5.2 What Is Digestion? 5.3 What Is Absorption? 5.4 What Happens to the Absorbed Nutrients? 5.5 What Are the Effects of Alcohol Consumption? 54 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd 5.4 What Happens to the Absorbed Nutrients? Learning Outcome(s) State the function of the hepatic portal vein as the transport of blood rich in absorbed nutrients from the small intestine to the liver. State the role of the liver in: conversion of glucose to glycogen and vice versa, fat digestion, metabolism of amino acids and formation of urea, breakdown of alcohol, and the breakdown of hormones. 55 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Assimilation Page 88 The process whereby some of the absorbed nutrients are converted into new cytoplasm of used to provide energy After absorption, the blood in the villi is rich in nutrients. The blood capillaries unite to form larger blood vessels, which then unite to form the hepatic portal vein. The hepatic portal vein transports nutrients from the small intestine to the liver. 56 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Pages 88–89 Glucose after absorption In the liver, most absorbed sugars are converted into glycogen and stored. Some glucose is transported by the blood leaving the liver, and is distributed around the body to be used for energy during cell respiration. Excess glucose is transported back to the liver and stored as glycogen for use in the future. 57 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Page 89 Amino acids after absorption Amino acids that enter the cells are converted into new cytoplasm that is used for growth and repair of worn-out parts of the body. Amino acids are also used to form enzymes and hormones. In the liver, excess amino acids have their amino groups are removed and converted into urea. This is known as deamination. Urea is removed from the body in the urine. The remains of the deaminated amino acids are converted into glucose in the liver. 58 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Page 89 Fats after absorption Fats are absorbed into the lymphatic capillaries, which join to form larger lymphatic vessels. These discharge fats into the bloodstream. Blood carries the fats to all parts of the body, especially the liver. When there is enough glucose, fats are not broken down and are used to build protoplasm like cell membranes. When glucose is in short supply, fats are broken down to provide the energy needed for vital activities in the body. Excess fat is stored in adipose tissues beneath the skin and around the heart and kidneys. Adipose tissues protect organs by acting as shock absorbers. 59 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Let’s Investigate 5.3 Page 90 Aim: To investigate digestion and absorption of carbohydrates Discussion Assume that the Visking tubing represents a mammalian gut wall.

Why is the liver important? 63 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Functions of the Liver Page 91 Production of Bile Deamination of Amino Acids Regulation of Blood Glucose Concentration o The liver plays a key role in keeping the amount of glucose in the blood constant, especially after a heavy meal or during fasting. o The pancreas contains special groups of cells known as the islets of Langerhans which secrete the hormones insulin and glucagon into the bloodstream. Both insulin and glucagon together help to regulate the level of glucose in the blood. 64 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Breakdown of Hormones Page 92 o Hormones, after they have served their purpose, are broken down in the liver. Detoxification o Harmful substances may be absorbed into the blood from the gut. These substances (e.g. the food preservative benzoic acid) is made harmless by the liver cells. o Alcohol is also broken down by the liver. Alcohol can cause damage to the digestive system and slow down brain functions. o Liver cells contain an enzyme which breaks down alcohol to compounds that can be used in respiration, providing energy for cell activities. 65 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd What Is a Hormone? A chemical substance produced in very small quantities by an endocrine gland. It is transported in the bloodstream to target organ(s) where it exerts its effect(s). Can influence the growth, development and activity of an organism. Are chemical messengers that help the various parts of the body to respond, develop and work together smoothly. Some glands produce only hormones, while other glands such as the pancreas produce both hormones and other secretions: o The pancreas produces pancreatic juice o The pancreas also contains special groups of cells known as the Islets of Langerhans which secrete the hormones insulin and glucagon into the bloodstream. o These hormones help to regulate the concentration of glucose in the blood. 66 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Video Time!

Textbook Page 92 Learning Outcome(s) Outline the effects of alcohol consumption on the brain (e.g. increased reaction time, reduced self-control), the long-term effects of excessive consumption (e.g. liver disease and brain damage) and the social implications. 74 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Harmful Effects on the Digestive System Page 93 Alcohol stimulates acid secretion in the stomach. Excess stomach acid increases the risk of gastric ulcers. Too much alcohol may lead to cirrhosis of the liver Cirrhosis is a disease in which the liver cells are destroyed and replaced with fibrous tissue, making the liver less able to function. Alcoholic cirrhosis may lead to haemorrhage in the liver, liver failure and subsequently, death. 75 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Video Time! Liver Cirrhosis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-SBR7p7K-M&t= 76 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd 7s Textbook Impacts on the Nervous System Pages 93–94 Depressant Alcohol slows down some brain functions. Its effects vary from one person to another. Reduced Self-control A person becomes carefree as alcohol takes away their self-control. They may do things that they may regret after the effects of alcohol have worn off. Effect on Reaction Time Slurred speech, blurred vision and poor muscular coordination may occur. People may be unable to move steadily. Their judgement deteriorates and they tend to underestimate speed. They may drive faster and with less caution, and their reactions become slower. Drunk drivers have a higher tendency to be involved in traffic accidents. 77 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Long-term Impacts on the Brain Page 94 Wet brain: A type of dementia caused by brain damage. Alcohol interferes with the absorption of vitamin B1 (thiamine) in the small intestine. Vitamin B1 is part of an enzyme needed to break down sugar to release energy for brain activities, e.g. in the conduction of nerve impulses. Shrinkage of brain volume: The brain becomes smaller (shown by the red portion) than normal, especially the region associated with memory and reasoning. Heavy consumption of alcohol during pregnancy may interfere with the development of the foetus’ brain, which may lead to lifelong physical, mental and behavioural problems. 78 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Social Implications Page 94 Some people may become addicted to alcohol and be unable to stop drinking until they are drunk, as their bodies become dependent on alcohol. Alcoholics may, o end up neglecting their work and families. o exhibit violent behaviour, especially towards family members. o be at a higher risk of committing crimes. 79 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Activity Time!

O 111 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd What Are Antigens and Antibodies Textbook Page 103 of the Blood ? Blood antigens are special proteins found on the surface of red blood cells. Recall what you have learnt about antibodies in Section 6.1 A person has the same antigens on all his or her red blood cells. Antibodies are produced by the white blood cells. They are found in the plasma. 112 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Blood Antigen – Antibody Reaction Page 103 Antigens provoke an immune response involving antibodies. Certain types of antibodies react with certain types of antigens, causing agglutination or clumping. This can be fatal. 113 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Types of Antigens and Antibodies in Different Page 104 Blood Groups 114 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Questions on Blood Group Antigens o Which blood group has antigen A on its blood cells?

Blood group B o Which blood group has antibody b in the plasma? Blood group A o Which blood group has both antibodies a and b in the plasma? Blood group O o Which blood group has no antibodies a and b in the plasma? Blood group AB 116 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook What Happens When Different Blood Groups Are Page 104 Mixed? 117 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Antibody Response in a Blood Transfusion Page 104 During a blood transfusion, if the donor’s blood cells have antigens that can react with the recipient’s antibodies, clumping of the blood occurs. This process, known as agglutination, is damaging as they can block blood vessels. 118 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Example A person with blood group B will have antigen B on his red blood cells. This antigen is going to cause a response in a person with antibody a in their plasma. People with blood group A and blood group O have antibody b in the plasma. Thus, they are unable to receive blood from a person with blood group B. 119 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Concept Cartoon Textbook Page 105 120 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Online Activity! https://educationalgames.nobelprize.org/educational/medicine/bloodtypinggame/ Blood Typing Game 121 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Page 103 Have you heard of someone who works as a phlebotomist?

Since olden times, people have been curious to know about how blood travels around the body. Some even had to pay the ultimate price for it! 124 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd What Did Early Scientists Think of Blood? Galen: thought there were two types of blood and they Was Galen right? served different functions Explain why you thought that the liver and heart produced blood think so. which the organs used up William Harvey’s experiment: bandage was tight around the arm o arm below bandage became cool and pale while arm What did the above bandage became warm and swollen experiment bandage was loosened slightly show? o the blood from the arteries (deeper in the flesh than veins) could flow into the lower arm and the lower arm became warm and swollen 125 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Chapter 6 Transport in Humans 6.1 What Are the Main Components of Blood? 6.2 What Are Blood Groups? 6.3 How Are Blood Vessels Adapted to Their Functions? 6.4 How Does Blood Circulate in the Human Body? 6.5 What Is Coronary Heart Disease? 126 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Learning Outcome(s) ∙ Relate the structures of arteries, veins and capillaries to their functions. ∙ Describe the transfer of materials between capillaries and tissue fluid. 127 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Pages 106–107 Parts of the Circulatory System The circulatory system consists of the: heart blood vessels o arteries o arterioles o blood capillaries o venules o veins 128 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Textbook Structure and Function Page 108 ∙ In biology, structure is always related to function. ∙ The different types of blood vessels have structures that are adapted to their functions. 129 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Adaptations of Arteries o Thick muscular and elastic walls to withstand the high blood pressure of blood flowing within. o The elasticity helps the artery wall to stretch and recoil o The contraction and relaxation of the arterial walls to divert blood to certain organs at certain times (e.g. dilation of arterioles of the skin to divert blood to skin capillaries during thermoregulation) 130 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Adaptations of Veins ∙ The function of veins is to transported blood back to the heart. However, as blood that is in the vein has lower pressure and speed, it has a tendency to backflow. ∙ Veins therefore have valves to prevent backflow of blood. ∙ in the veins, blood flows more slowly and smoothly compared to in the arteries. Thus, the walls of veins are thinner than the walls of the arteries. 131 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Adaptations of Veins ∙ However, as blood that is in the vein has lower pressure and speed, it has a tendency to backflow. ∙ Veins therefore have valves to prevent backflow of blood. 132 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Challenge: Look at the micrograph.

What is the role of blood capillaries? The role of blood capillaries is to facilitate exchange of The exchange of substances between blood and tissue cells in the body. substances occurs mainly by diffusion. What are the features of blood capillaries that are adapted to perform this role? Factors affecting diffusion are as follows: Recall factors that Temperature* affect diffusion to Surface area help you remember Diffusion distance the adaptations of Steep concentration gradient blood capillaries. *temperature does not matter in the human body because it is constant 140 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Recall! What are the features of blood capillaries that are adapted to perform this role? Features of blood capillaries: ∙ walls: partially permeable, one-cell thick ∙ vessels: tiny and numerously branched to Adaptations must ensure that: o increase the surface area for exchange ∙ surface area is maximised of substances ∙ diffusion distance is minimised o increase the total cross-sectional area ∙ concentration difference is maximised of the blood vessels, lowering the blood pressure and thereby slowing blood flow to give more time for exchange of substances 141 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Low Blood Speed and Pressure in Capillaries As capillaries are so numerous, if a cross-section is taken across all the capillaries and the total cross-sectional area compared to that of the artery, there would be an increase in total cross-sectional area as blood moves from artery to capillaries, thereby reducing the blood’s speed and pressure, giving more time for exchange of substances to take place. Cross-sectional area of artery Cross-sectional areas of all the capillaries in the network 142 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd Summary of Adaptations of Capillaries To increase rate of exchange of substances, How is it achieved? capillaries need: Large surface area Numerous branches of capillaries Wall of capillaries made up of single layer of Short diffusion distance flattened cells Steep concentration Continuous blood flow through the capillaries gradient Note! Adaptations of the villus and the alveolus in chapters 5 and 7 respectively have similarities to that of the capillaries because they have similar function as surfaces for exchange of substances. 143 © 2023 Marshall Cavendish Education Pte Ltd How Are Substances Transferred Between Textbook Page 110 Capillaries and Tissue Fluid?
