1. Learning Intention
To be able to label an animal cell and describe the function of organelles
To explain what is meant by the term “Specialised Cell”
To describe the role of the cells found in blood
To be able to explain why we have different blood types

2. Cells Basic Unit of life Unicellular- smallest living organism
Multicellular- large number of cells
Animal, Plant, Bacterial, Fungal
ANIMAL CELL

3. Animal Cell (copy)

4. Copy and Complete Organelle Function Nucleus
Controls what enters and exits the cell
Site of chemical reactions
Site of aerobic respiration
Ribosomes

5. Specialised Cells Inefficient to all do same job Jobs delegated
Specialised cells- adaptions
Specialised cells ordered into tissues

6. Blood An example of tissue (approx) 5 litres
Transports useful substances around the body (Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Dissolved food, Hormones)
Contains specialised cells

7. Blood Plasma Pale yellow liquid 55% of blood’s total volume
Holds blood cells

8. Red Blood Cells Haemoglobin- Carries Oxygen (Oxy-haemoglobin)
Biconcave shape
No nucleus
Flexible

9. White Blood Cells Immune System Fights off foreign bodies
Shape shifters
Far less than RBC

10. Platelets Small and colourless Disc shaped No nucleus Large numbers
Clotting

11. Specialised cells in blood: Copy and Complete
Type of Cell
Description
Function
Yellow like fluid which makes up 55% of the total blood volume
All other cells are suspended in it
Red Blood Cells
Bi-concave shape and no nucleus to increase surface area
Can change their shape
Platelets
Small, colourless, no nucleus

12. Blood Types https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfZhb6lmxjk ABO
Blood transfusions
RBC- antigens (A, B, AB)
White blood cells attack if not recognised

13. Blood types

14. Blood Types
A person’s blood type is determined by the presence or absence of the antigens A and B, which are carried on the surface of the red cells.
