is a diagram of a section through a human heart. Y Z deoxygenated blood from the body oxygenated blood to the body oxygenated blood from the lungs deoxygenated blood to the lungs Draw the letter X on to show the position of the septum. State the name of the blood vessel labelled Y in . State the function of the part labelled Z in . State how the part labelled Z in can be used to monitor the activity of the heart. State the name of the main type of tissue that forms the wall of the heart. A scientist measured the average resting heart rate of seven different species of animal. They also estimated the average life expectancy of each species. is a graph of the scientist’s data. average life expectancy / years average resting heart rate / beats per minute mouse fox wolf tiger horse orca hamster Complete the sentences to describe the results in . The animal with the highest average resting heart rate is the . The animal with the longest average life expectancy is the . The general trend is that as the average life expectancy increases, the average resting heart rate . Another animal species has an average life expectancy of 14 years. Using the information in , predict the average resting heart rate of this animal species. beats per minute Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a blockage of one of the blood vessels of the heart. State the name of the blood vessel that becomes blocked in CHD. List two risk factors for coronary heart disease. List the names of two types of cell found in blood.

Scientists recorded the percentage of endangered species in each of the five groups of vertebrates, in 2000 and 2011. shows the results. percentage of endangered species in each vertebrate group amphibians mammals birds vertebrate group reptiles fish key: State the vertebrate group that had the largest increase in the percentage of endangered species between 2000 and 2011. State the vertebrate group that had a decrease in the percentage of endangered species. State the percentage of fish species that were endangered in 2011. % State one feature of birds which distinguishes them from the other groups of vertebrates. One reason species become endangered is pollution from discarded waste such as plastic. Describe two ways of preventing plastic waste entering the environment. Reducing pollution can help to conserve species. Outline other ways that can be used to conserve endangered animal species. Differences between the features of the five groups of vertebrates have arisen over very long periods of time. These differences are the result of natural selection. The box on the left contains the term ‘Natural selection’. The boxes on the right contain some sentence endings. Draw three lines to link the term ‘Natural selection’ with three sentence endings to make three correct sentences. involves humans choosing the best animals. involves only the best adapted organisms surviving and breeding. involves passing on alleles to offspring. Natural selection occurs because all offspring are identical to their parents. occurs as there are not enough resources for every individual. only occurs in animals.
