PAPER 2
Objectives
2.40B Understand the role of diffusion in gas exchange.
2.41B Understand gas exchange (of carbon dioxide and oxygen) in relation to
respiration and photosynthesis.
2.42B Understand how the structure of the leaf is adapted for gas exchange
2.43B Describe the role of stomata in gas exchange.
2.44B Understand how respiration continues during the day and night, but
that the net exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen depends on the
intensity of light.
2.45B Practical: investigate the effect of light on net gas exchange from a
leaf, using hydrogen-carbonate indicator.

Gas Exchange
Humans
2g – Gas exchange - Humans
Objectives
2.46 Describe the structure of the thorax, including the ribs, intercostal
muscles, diaphragm, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli and pleural
membranes.
2.47 Understand the role of the intercostal muscles and the diaphragm in
ventilation.
2.48 Explain how alveoli are adapted for gas exchange by diffusion between air
in the lungs and blood in capillaries.
2.49 Understand the biological consequences of smoking in relation to the
lungs and the circulatory system, including coronary heart disease.
2.50 Practical: investigate breathing in humans, including the release of carbon
dioxide and the effect of exercise.

Structure Function
Trachea Tube with incomplete rings of cartilage carries air to lungs; lined with cells
making mucus, and cells with cilia to move the mucus away.
