CVS merit work

Task 2 (M3)

Explain the requirement for a transport system in the body and how this is achieved-Include;

–Transport (gases, nutrients, waste products, hormones, heat)

–Defence

–Regulation (temperature, pH, water content)

–Lymphatic System

For example;

•How does the body deal with the constant leakage of fluid from the cells?

•Which part of the transport system ensures this intracellular fluid is returned?

Remember an annotated diagram is always a good thing

CVS Pass work

You need to hand in:

• your results table
• your graph

3. Show knowledge of the structure & function of the cardiovascular system
4. Correctly interpret results.
