9B Summary Sheets
Being fit means that your body can cope with the activities that you need to do. To stay fit you should eat a balanced diet, exercise regularly, avoid smoking and avoidalcohol and drug abuse. If you follow these rules your heart will stay healthy and youwill be less likely to suffer from high blood pressure and other circulatory problemslike heart disease (when heart muscle cells start to die).
During exercise muscle cells need more energy. This is obtained from a sugar calledglucose by the process of aerobic respiration. This is the word equation:
oxygen + glucose → carbon dioxide + water (+ energy)
There are several organ systems involved to allow respiration to occur in muscle cells.
• The respiratory (or breathing) system supplies the oxygen and removes thecarbon dioxide.
• The digestive system provides the glucose.• The circulatory system carries the glucose and oxygen to the muscle cells, and
carries the carbon dioxide away to the lungs.
When you exercise your breathing rate (number of breaths in one minute) and yourpulse rate (number of times your heart beats in one minute) increase. This is becauseyour cells need more oxygen and glucose for respiration.
Breathing is carried out by two sets of muscles, the diaphragm and the rib muscles(found between the ribs). These change the volume of the chest. Breathing ventilates(moves air into and out of) the lungs.

Breathing in (inhalation). Breathing out (exhalation).
• Diaphragm contracts and movesdownwards.
• Rib muscles contract and lift ribs upand outwards.
• The volume of the chest increases.• Air flows into the lungs.
• Diaphragm relaxes and movesupwards.
• Rib muscles relax and move ribs downand inwards.
• The volume of the chest decreases.• Air flows out of the lungs.

9B Summary Sheets (continued)
Drugs are chemicals that affect how the body works. Cigarettes contain a drug callednicotine which is addictive (you feel that you cannot do without it). The chemicals incigarette smoke can cause diseases.
9
B
Medicines are drugs that can help people who are suffering from diseases, e.g.antibiotics. Recreational drugs are legal drugs that people take because they likethe effect that they have on their body, e.g. caffeine in coffee and alcohol. Illegaldrugs include heroin and Ecstasy.
Drugs that slow down the nervous system are called depressants. Alcohol is adepressant. It alters behaviour and slows reaction time. Drugs that speed up thenervous system are called stimulants, e.g. caffeine. Misuse of any drug can beharmful especially to the liver.
A balanced diet is essential to health. It is made up of the correct amounts of thefollowing seven food substances: carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals,water and fibre.
A shortage of a particular substance can cause a specific deficiency disease.
Eating too much of a particular substance can also cause problems. Too much fat cancause obesity and heart disease.
Muscles move bones at joints. Muscles cannot push and so joints need pairs ofmuscles (antagonistic pairs) to pull in opposite directions. One muscle contractsand gets shorter and fatter, to pull a bone. At the same time the other muscle in thepair relaxes and gets longer and thinner.
Poison in cigarette smoke Harm it causes
nicotine Makes arteries narrower, causes heart disease.
tar Clogs up the lungs and stops the cilia working, causes cancer and bronchitis.
carbon monoxide Stops red blood cells carrying so much oxygen.
Muscles areattached to bones bytendons.
an antagonistic pair
Triceps muscle – pulls the lowerarm down.
Biceps muscle – pulls the lower arm up.
The elbow joint.
Exercise strengthens bonesand muscles. Too muchexercise can damagemuscles and joints.

You are going to find out how much air you breathe in and out in each minute.
Method
1 Take the bottle and using the measuring cylinder, put 50 cm3 of water in it.
2 Mark a line where the water level is. Label the line 50 cm3.
3 Add another 50 cm3 of water. Mark a line labelled 100 cm3 along the newwater level.
4 Carry on doing this until the markings reach 500 cm3.
5 Place the bottle into the bowl of water and make sure it is completely fullof water.
6 Get your partner to turn the bottle upside down in the water without letting any water come out of it. Lift the bottle so that the open end doesnot go above the surface of the water.
7 Place one end of the tubing inside the bottle.
P Apparatus� Clean piece of tubing � Empty fizzy drink bottle (1 litre)� Large bowl of water � Measuring cylinder� Permanent marker � Stopclock
8 Do not take a big breath! Hold your nose and breathe out normally throughthe tube.
9 The volume of air that collects in the bottle is the volume that you normallybreathe in each breath.
10 Do the experiment three times and then let your partner do it, using a clean tube.

9Bb/10 Vitamins
knowledge, literacyS
Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins (1861–1947) was an English scientist who is known asthe father of British biochemistry, the chemistry of living things.
In 1906–1907 Hopkins performed a series of experiments in which he fed mice a dietof fat, carbohydrate, protein and mineral salts. At the time, it was believed that aslong as an animal ate enough energy-providing food it would be healthy and grow.Hopkins’ experiments proved this to be wrong. The mice that were fed this dieteventually stopped growing, but when they were given the same diet plus a smallamount of milk they began to grow again.
After years of careful experiments he published his findings in 1912. He concludedthat certain substances, that he called accessory food factors, were missing from theartificial diet. They were only needed in small amounts, but they were essential forgrowth. These were later called vitamins.
Around the same time a Dutch scientist, Christiaan Eijkman (1858–1930), discoveredhow to cure and prevent the disease beriberi. This disease was common in south andeast Asia. Beriberi affects the nerves and causes pain, paralysis and swelling in thelimbs. Eijkman found that he could cause the disease in chickens by feeding them adiet of hulled and polished rice. This is rice that has had the outer layers removedfrom the grains. By feeding the chickens a diet of whole grain rice he could cure themof the disease. He believed that the grain contained a poison that was neutralised bythe outer layer. It was Hopkins who realised that beriberi was another deficiencydisease caused by a lack of a certain vitamin in the diet. It was not until the 1930sthat the vitamin was identified as being vitamin B1 (thiamine). Hopkins and Eijkmanshared the 1929 Nobel Prize for physiology for their work.

Alcohol abuse is when someone regularly drinks too much alcohol. This can causeserious health problems.
Alcohol is poisonous and it damages nerve cells in the brain and can kill liver cells. Italso affects the stomach and can cause a person to be sick. Over a period of timealcohol can cause stomach ulcers.
An alcoholic is someone who is addicted to alcohol. Many alcoholics die of a diseasecalled cirrhosis (pronounced ‘sir-O-sis’) of the liver.
Pregnant women who drink too much alcohol risk causing damage to the brain andliver of their baby, as well as slowing down how quickly it grows. This is why babiesof alcoholic women have a low birth mass.

9Bc/8 Heart diseaseIn the United Kingdom about 25% of deaths ofall women and 30% of deaths of all men aredue to heart disease. Unlike many diseases,there are many different causes of heart disease.
When some of the muscle cells in the heart die,this is known as heart disease. The cells diebecause they cannot get enough oxygen andglucose. It often happens because the arteriescarrying blood to the muscle tissue of the heartstart to get blocked up with a fatty substanceand so less blood can flow through them. Whenthis happens it is known as arteriosclerosis(pronounced ‘are-tir-ee-O-skluh-rO-sis’).
The fatty substance that builds up contains a substance called cholesterol. Althoughcholesterol is important for the body, if there is too much in the blood it can start tocause arteriosclerosis. Many scientists agree that reducing the amount of cholesterol inthe diet is a good way of reducing your chances of developing arteriosclerosis. Somescientists think that having a lot of fibre in the diet can stop the small intestineabsorbing too much cholesterol. Some scientists also think that some vitamins canreduce the amount of cholesterol in the blood. Alcohol increases the amount ofcholesterol that the blood carries.
Smoking can also cause arteriosclerosis. Nicotine makes blood vessels narrower andspeeds up the heart beat rate. These two factors cause a higher blood pressure whichweakens the walls of the arteries and helps to cause the build up of the fattysubstance on the artery walls.
Exercise is important in helping the heart to remain strong and healthy. In fact,people who do no regular exercise are three times more likely to die from heartdisease than those who do.

Throughout our lives we put strain on our joints. Sometimes the bones do not moveeasily against each other and the ends of the bones may become damaged. If a personsuffers from arthritis the problem is made even worse because the cartilage becomesworn away. The bones rub against each other, causing joint pain and stiffness.
Damage to the hip joint is quite common because it has to support a lot of weight.This can be extremely painful and walking becomes very difficult. Fortunately, adamaged hip joint can be replaced with an artificial hip. Each year many people whoare unable to walk have successful operations.
A replacement hip joint has to be able to work like a real one. It needs to movesmoothly, be strong enough to support the weight of the body, be lightweight and bemade of materials that do not react with the body or harm the body.
Artificial joints are usually made of a plastic socket and a metal ball. Other hard-wearing materials are also being developed. The design and production of a hip jointinvolves many different scientists to ensure that the new hip will fit properly and thatthe materials used are suitable for their purpose. As new materials are developed theyneed to be trialled and evaluated. Also, new surgical techniques may be tried out andthe success of these also needs to be evaluated and recorded.
Once in hospital a whole team of different scientists become involved in the diagnosis,treatment and follow-up care of the patient.

B
c
knowledge, numeracyS
The government recommends that men should not drink more than 21 units ofalcohol per week and women should not drink more than 14 units per week.
The number of units of alcohol in a drink can be calculated using the following equation:
number of units = volume of drink (cm3) × % alcohol concentration
1000
1 Using this equation calculate the number of units in each of the following drinks:
a a 125 cm3 glass of wine
b a 25 cm3 measure of gin
c a 25 cm3 measure of vodka
d a 330 cm3 bottle of lager
e a 40 cm3 measure of vermouth.
?
2 a What does BAC stand for?
b Calculate how much each of the drinks listed in question 1 would increasethe blood alcohol concentration by.
c If a man drank two bottles of lager and two glasses of wine what would hisblood alcohol concentration be? Use the average figure given above towork your answer out.
d Would he be above or below the legal limit for driving?
e If a smaller person drank the same amount of alcohol how do you thinkthis would effect their blood alcohol concentration?
?
The effect of one unit of alcohol on blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is different indifferent people, depending on their age, sex and body size. On average, one unit ofalcohol increases the BAC by 15 mg/100 cm3.
The legal limit for driving in the UK is 80 mg/100 cm3.

9Bd/8 The thalidomide storyIn the 1950s antibiotics were very important to drugs companies. The companieswere trying to develop simple, cheap techniques for making these drugs that werebeing widely used to treat bacterial infections.
In 1954, a German drug company was carrying out experiments and produced a newdrug called thalidomide. It was not an antibiotic and in animal tests it had no anti-cancer or sedative effects. It was also non-toxic, even in high doses. The Germanscientists wondered if the drug might act as a sedative in humans. As it appeared to bea safe drug they decided to try it out. It worked very well, putting patients into adeep, all night sleep. They thought the drug would make them a lot of money becausealternative sedatives were all toxic.
Thalidomide was released in West Germany in 1957 and in the UK and other parts ofthe world in 1958. It quickly became the best selling sleeping pill and was advertisedas completely safe, even for pregnant women, although there was no data to supportthis. It was taken by thousands of pregnant women to treat morning sickness.
By 1960 a rare birth defect was appearing in Germany and in other countries. Babieswere being born without arms and legs – their hands and feet were attached directlyonto the body. This condition is called phocomelia. By 1962 around 12 000thalidomide babies had been born but only 8000 survived. It was estimated that afurther 12 000 embryos had been affected by the drug, but died before birth.
Doctors around the world needed to know what was causing these defects. Afterinterviewing the mothers it was found that the common factor was that they had alltaken thalidomide. Further research suggested that the drug most affected the embryoif taken between the 20th and 36th day after conception. Chemicals that cause defectsin embryos are called teratogens.
Thalidomide was withdrawn from the UK market in 1962. Shortly afterwards it wasrevealed that high doses of thalidomide caused limb defects in the offspring of rabbits,but not in other animals. The reason for this has never been found, but it is nowthought that the drug causes defects in humans by interfering with the growth anddevelopment of new blood vessels.
Thalidomide is in the news again because it is now being used for many seriousillnesses. It is used to treat multiple sclerosis, AIDS and the painful inflammationcaused by leprosy. It also reduces the size of some cancers. Thalidomide is beingmanufactured in the UK, but women are not allowed to enter the factory.
