Section 2: Structures and 2.56B understand that transpiration is the evaporation 99-101 functions in living of water from the surface of a plant organisms 2.57B understand how the rate of transpiration is h) Transport affected by changes in humidity, wind speed, temperature and light intensity 2.58B practical: investigate the role of environmental factors in determining the rate of transpiration from a leafy shoot. Section 2: Structures and 2.59 describe the composition of the blood: red blood cells, 102-104 functions in living white blood cells, platelets and plasma organisms 2.60 understand the role of plasma in the transport of h) Transport carbon dioxide, digested food, urea, hormones and heat energy 2.61 understand how adaptations of red blood cells make them suitable for the transport of oxygen, including shape, the absence of a nucleus and the presence of haemoglobin. Section 2: Structures and 2.62 understand how the immune system responds to 105-017 functions in living disease using white blood cells, organisms illustrated by phagocytes ingesting pathogens and lymphocytes releasing antibodies specific to the pathogen h) Transport 2.63B understand how vaccination results in the manufacture of memory cells, which enable future antibody production to the pathogen to occur sooner, faster and in greater quantity 2.64B understand how platelets are involved in blood clotting, which prevents blood loss and the entry of micro-organisms. Section 2: Structures and 2.65 describe the structure of the heart and how it functions 109 functions in living organisms 2.66 explain how the heart rate changes during exercise and under the influence of adrenaline.
