Organs and Organ Transplants Objectives: Be able to label a diagram of the human body with the main organs Describe what each of the main organs does (its function) Discuss organ transplants

Organs Brain Lungs Heart Kidneys Liver Stomach Large and Small Intestines

Put the correct labels on your worksheet Which organ is missing??

What does each organ do? Brain - Heart - Lungs - Liver - Stomach - Kidneys - Intestines -

Organ Transplants Sometimes people’s organs don’t work properly and they become ill. If Doctors can’t fix the organs they may be able to replace them with artificial organs or with organs from someone else’s body. When people die they can donate their organs so they can be used in other people’s bodies to make them better.

Organ Transplants The person who gives the organ is the donor The person who gets the organ is the host The donor and the host need to match each other to stop the body rejecting the new organ. Some people carry donor cards because they want to donate their organs.

Which organs can be transplanted? Corneas (part of your eye) Lungs Heart Liver Kidneys Pancreas Stomach The organs are kept cool to keep them in good condition and stop them decaying

Animal and Plant cells Learning Objectives: Be able to label a plant and animal cell Describe what each part of the cell does

Think about the size of your little toe. It has about 2 or 3 thousand million cells! That’s a lot of cells to make one toe, so cells must be very, very, very small. Living things are made up of tiny building blocks called cells. Each cell breathes, takes in food, gets rid of wastes, grows, reproduces and dies. A living thing can be just one cell or millions of cells. Big living things don’t have bigger cells they just have more cells. Amazingly, the human body has more than 10,000,000,000,000 (that’s 10 million million) cells!

Animal and plant cells come in different shapes and sizes, but they all have three basic features. What is a cell? plant cellanimal cell cytoplasm cell membrane Plant cells also have some extra features that make them different to animal cells. nucleus

Animal cell Cell Membrane – controls what goes in and comes out of the cell Cytoplasm- jelly substance, useful chemical reactions happen in here Nucleus – controls the cell (like a brain)

Nucleus Cytoplasm Vacuole (filled with cell sap) Chloroplast (contains chlorophyll) Cell Membrane Cell Wall Starch Grains Plant cells Chloroplasts – capture sunlight to convert to food Cell Wall – gives the cell a rigid shape

4) 1) 5) 6) 2) 3) Plant cells vs. Animal cells Both types of cell have these: Only plant cells have these: Cell wall – provides support Large Vacuole – contains sap Chloroplasts – contain chlorophyll Cell Membrane – holds the cell together Cytoplasm - this is where the reactions happen Nucleus – The “brain” of the cell

Questions Name a part of a cell that both plants and animals have What is the vacuole for? What is the cell wall for? What happens in the cytoplasm? What keeps all the cytoplasm inside the cell? What would happen to a plant if it didn’t have any chloroplasts?

Each of the following sentences has at least one mistake in it. Rewrite each one, correcting the mistakes. A) The vacuole contains a substance called cytoplasm. B) Animal cells have a cell wall, a nucleus and cytoclasm. C) Chloroform is a green substance found in chloroplasts. D) A cell is held together by a cell surface counterpane. E) The cell wall is used for storage. F) The cytoplasm controls the cell.

Using Microscopes Learning Objectives: Learn how to use the microscope Look at some cells under the microscope and draw them

Microscopes Cells could not have been discovered without the invention of the microscope. “micro-” means” small”, “-scope” means “looking at”. A microscope allows us to look at very small things by making them seem bigger. It magnifies tiny details and makes them visible to the human eye.

Looking at onion cells Peel a very thin layer of onion skin off Place it on a microscope slide Add a few drops of iodine solution Put a cover slip over it Place it under the microscope to view it Draw what you can see

Specialised Cells Learning Objectives: Name some specialised cells in plants and animals Describe how these specialised cells are adapted for their function

Specialised cells Not all cells look the same, some have to do a special job so they change (adapt) to do this job. Cells we need to know about are: In animals In Plants 1.Ciliated epithelial cell 1. Root hair cell 2.Muscle cell 2. Palisade cell 3. Nerve cell 3. Xylem cell

Specialised animal cells 1.Ciliated epithelial cell 2. Muscle cell Elongated. Can contract and stretch to allow movement. 3. Nerve cell Long and thin. Form connections with other nerve cells. Carry signals from the brain.

Specialised plant cells 1.Root hair cell 2. Palisade cell 3. Xylem cell

Systems of the body Learning Objectives: Describe how the body is organised from cells to tissues to organs to systems Explain what a body system is and give an example of one in the human body

To understand how the body is organised, think about how a school is organised.. A school needs to be very organised. Every pupil in the school needs to know where they should be and what they are doing. However... Not all pupils study the same subjects. Not all pupils can work together efficiently. There is not room for all the pupils to be in the same place. How is the body organised?

A school is made up of an organised system. How is the body organised? Individual pupil Registration group Subject class Year group School cell tissue organ organ system organism

Living things are made up of organised systems. Each specific cell is grouped with cells similar to them in structure and function to form a tissue. The tissues then go on to form organs. How is the body organised? cells tissue

Groups of tissues work together to form organs. How is the body organised? cell tissueorgan Groups of similar cells work together to form tissues. Cells are the basic units of life.

Groups of organs form systems. For example, the human digestive system is made up of several organs including the mouth, gullet, stomach and small intestine. The different organs in a system are linked together by tubes or vessels. What other human body systems can you think of? How is the body organised?

Organ Systems Our body has lots of organs inside it to help it work properly. The 6 main organ systems that help our bodies work are: 1 – Respiratory System 2 – Circulatory System 3 – Digestive System 4 – Excretory System 5 – Nervous system 6 – Reproductive System

Respiratory System Main Organs: Lungs, trachea What does it do? We breathe in and out to get oxygen, this oxygen is needed by our body to keep us alive.

Circulatory System Main Organs: Heart and blood vessels What does it do? The heart pumps blood all around the body through the blood vessels. The blood carries important substances around the body e.g oxygen and food.

Digestive System Main Organs: Stomach and intestines What does it do? It digests food into really small pieces so our body can get the energy from it. Oesophagus

Excretory System Main Organs: Kidneys and Liver What does it do? Our kidneys filter our blood and remove any waste products from it. Our liver breaks down harmful substances in our body. Any waste is excreted by sweating, urine or faeces.

Nervous System Main Organs: Brain, spinal cord and nerves What does it do? The brain controls the nervous system Nerve signals are sent along the nerves all over the body They pass on the messages from the brain to the body

Reproductive System Main Organs: Ovaries and Testes What does it do? Women have ovaries which make eggs. Men have testes which make sperm. When the egg and sperm meet they form an embryo, this embryo grows into a baby.

Plant systems Plants have organ systems just like animals. One of the plants organ systems is its root system Root Hair Cell Root Hair Tissue Root Water transport system

Cell Division and MRS GREN Learning Objectives: Recall the 7 life processes Explain what happens in cell division

The 7 life processes How can you tell if something is alive or not...? The things living people do are called life processes, if you want to tell if something is alive or not look for the 7 life processes We can remember it by using MRS GREN

S = SENSITIVITY Living things notice and react to changes in their surroundings. They can respond to light, heat, sound, taste, sight or touch. R = RESPIRATION Living things need energy to carry out the functions that keep them alive. Respiration is the process by which food is turned into energy. M = MOVEMENT Living things are able to move about. Animals move from place to place. Plants move by responding to light.

R = REPRODUCTION Living things produce offspring. Reproduction continues the survival of each species. G = GROWTH Living things grow, increasing in size and complexity. N = NUTRITION Living things need to take in food so that respiration can occur. Nutrients in food help to build, maintain and repair the organism. E = EXCRETION Living things have to get rid of unwanted waste products.

MRS GREN (the 7 life processes) M - MOVEMENT R – RESPIRATION (breathing and circulating) S – SENSITIVITY (responding to changes) G - GROWTH R – REPRODUCTION (making babies) E – EXCRETION (getting rid of waste) N – NUTRITION (eating and digesting)

How does the body produce new cells? The body needs to produce new cells for three main reasons: ● growth ● repair ● reproduction How does it produce these cells? The body is constantly producing new cells from old cells dividing (splitting into two). This is called cell division.

What would be the problem if cells did split in half to produce new cells ? What actually happens is that cells have to make new copies of the material inside them, as well as new membranes before they divide. Just before a cell divides, it appears to grow slightly as it reproduces everything inside itself. The nucleus doubles in size and then divides into two equal halves. Where do cells come from? There wouldn’t be much of the cells left! New cells are produced by cell division, but this doesn’t mean that cells split in half.

Cell division occurs extremely quickly and each new cell is also able to divide. Where do cells come from? Cell division makes it possible for the body to:  grow quickly;  repair cuts and replace dead cells quickly;  produce an enormous number of reproductive cells.
