Structure and Functions of the Human Heart
1. Label the parts of human heart and draw the arrow of the flow of
oxygenated blood (Red) and deoxygenated blood (Blue)
Structure and Functions of Main Blood Vessels
There are three human blood vessels, namely______________________,
________________ and ____________________
Differences between blood vessels.

Heartbeat Sound
The ‘____________’ sound is
produced by the closure of the
___________________ valve
and _________________ valve
between the atria and the
ventricles when contraction of
the ventricles occurs. This
condition is known as systole.
The pressure reading of blood
flowing out of the heart is called
the systolic pressure reading.
The ‘______________’ sound is
produced by the closure of the
______________________ valves
at the aorta and pulmonary artery
when relaxation of the ventricles
occurs. This condition is known as
diastole. The pressure reading of
blood flowing into and filling the
heart is called the diastolic
pressure reading.

Measurement of Blood Pressure


Blood pressure is usually measured using a _____________________________
Normal blood pressure is ___________________________ mmHg

Pulse Rate
Pulse is produced by the contraction and relaxation of the
__________________.

Factors affecting your pulse rate:


1. _______________________
2. _______________________
3. _______________________

PLANTS
1. What is the meaning of transpiration?
Transpiration is a process of water loss in the form of water vapour from
the surface of leaves to the air through evaporation.

2. Underline the correct answer on the transport system in plants.


(a) Loss of water from plants through transpiration is in the form of
(liquid/vapour) while loss of water through exudation is in the form of
(liquid/vapour).
(b) The tissue that transports water in plants is (phloem/xylem) while the
tissue that transports sucrose is (phloem/xylem).

3. State four factors that affect the rate of transpiration in plants.
