2.57 describe the composition of the blood: red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and plasma 2.58 understand the role of plasma in the transport of carbon dioxide, digested food, urea, hormones and heat energy 2.59 explain how adaptations of red blood cells, including shape, structure and the presence of haemoglobin, make them suitable for the transport of oxygen 2.60 describe how the immune system responds to disease using white blood cells, illustrated by phagocytes ingesting pathogens and lymphocytes releasing antibodies specific to the pathogen 2.61 understand that vaccination results in the manufacture of memory cells, which enable future antibody production to the pathogen to occur sooner, faster and in greater quantity 2.62 understand that platelets are involved in blood clotting, which prevents blood loss and the entry of micro-organisms 2.63 describe the structure of the heart and how it functions 2.64 explain how the heart rate changes during exercise and under the influence of adrenaline 2.65 describe the structure of arteries, veins and capillaries and understand their roles 2.66 understand the general structure of the circulation system to include the blood vessels to and from the heart, the lungs, the liver and the kidneys.

Hank from Crash Course introduces the respiratory system and the circulatory system. You should be focusing on this not just as a review of the respiratory sytem and introduction to the circulatory system, but you should also be looking for links between the two. media type="custom" key="24773388"

Kidshealth tutorial on what is blood

Learn about your heart this [|informative tutorial from the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute] the includes clear diagrams and good animations

Helpful animations and tutorials by MyDr:
 * Phagocytosis>
 * How your heart pumps blood

Cardiac cycle animations and tutorials:
 * McGraw and Hill - more detailed than needed, but very clearly explained
 * Interactive Heart from Utah Uni - again lots of detail, but very helpful animations

 * Activity Ideas**

__Heart dissection__ learn about the structure of the heart and compare the attached arteries and veins. Use the [|Practical Biology outline] to guide your dissection and to record your findings. Print the record sheet and complete it by hand. Add the completed record sheet to your notes.

__Heart function - how does the heart pump blood?__ Learn about the meaning of the words diastole and systole and then build your own cardiac cycle in groups given the help in the document. media type="custom" key="27838557"

__Immunity - what's the story?__
 * 1) In groups of four divide up your roles: one person is the 'Scribe' the remaining three 'Keepers' will hold the information
 * 2) Divide up the contents of the envelope between the 'keepers'
 * 3) Keepers should individually and privately read the information they have been given.
 * 4) Keepers may read out their information to other group members, but may not share the original fragment with others
 * 5) Together as a group build a story or mind map of immunity from the different fragments of information
 * 6) The scribe is the only one allowed to record the map/story on the paper provided
 * 7) Check your map/story with the teacher then use it as a basis to help complete the workbook sections concerned with immunity
