The human circulatory system contains blood vessels. shows some names of blood vessels and organs. The boxes on the left show the names of some blood vessels that deliver blood to organs. The boxes on the right show the names of some organs that receive blood. Draw straight lines from each blood vessel to the organ that it delivers blood to. Draw four straight lines. blood vessel that delivers blood organ receiving blood pulmonary artery heart pulmonary vein kidney renal artery lungs vena cava Table 1.1 shows three types of blood vessel, the thickness of their walls and whether they contain valves. Complete the descriptions of the blood vessels in Table 1.1. Table 1.1 type of blood vessel thickness of wall presence of valves artery thick no capillary vein

Photosynthesis is a process that occurs in plant cells. State the word equation for photosynthesis. State the type of energy required for photosynthesis. is a diagram of a section through a leaf. On : • label with a label line and the letter A the type of cell where most photosynthesis takes place. • label with a label line and the letter B the type of cell which conducts water through the plant. State the name of the cell structure where photosynthesis happens. A student investigated the rate of photosynthesis in a plant at different temperatures. The results are shown in Table 2.1. Table 2.1 temperature / °C rate of photosynthesis / arbitrary units State the temperature at which the rate of photosynthesis is highest. °C Calculate the percentage increase in the rate of photosynthesis from 20 °C to 30 °C. Give your answer to three significant figures. Space for working. %

During puberty, the hormones oestrogen and testosterone are involved in the development of the secondary sexual characteristics. State the name of the gland that produces each hormone. oestrogen testosterone Complete Table 3.1 by placing ticks (✓) in the boxes to show which hormones are involved in the development of each secondary sexual characteristic. Table 3.1 secondary sexual characteristic testosterone oestrogen body shape changes breast development facial hair voice deepening is a diagram of the uterus during pregnancy. A B C D State the letter on that identifies the structure which performs each of these functions. • exchange of substances between the fetus and the mother • protects the fetus from mechanical shock • transfers blood between the fetus and the placenta Outline the processes involved in labour and birth. The birthweights of 75 rats were measured and recorded within different birthweight ranges. The number of rats in each birthweight range is recorded in Table 3.2. Table 3.2 birthweight / g number of rats 5.5 – 5.9 6.0 – 6.4 6.5 – 6.9 7.0 – 7.4 7.5 – 7.9 8.0 – 8.4 8.5 – 8.9 State the most common birthweight range in Table 3.2. State the number of rats that are heavier than 6.9 g at birth in Table 3.2. State the type of variation shown by the data in Table 3.2.

Sewage treatment reduces water pollution. State the names of two of the stages of sewage treatment. Raw sewage is a major source of water pollution. State the name of one other source of water pollution. Urea is found in sewage. Urea is made in the human body and excreted in urine. State the name of the biological molecules that are broken down to make urea. State the name of the organ that produces urea. Raw sewage can be produced by intensive livestock farming. State two other negative impacts of intensive livestock farming.

Each word may be used once, more than once or not at all. antibodies antigens biological block chemical engulf hairs mechanical nails vaccines The body has defences to protect against infectious diseases. Skin and in the nose are barriers. Some types of blood cell are involved in defending the body against infectious diseases. Some blood cells can produce which can kill the pathogen. Other cells can the pathogen in a process called phagocytosis. Describe actions that can be taken by individuals in their homes to reduce the spread of disease.
