This introduction to the key components needed for a balanced diet and what they do for the body

This booklet cover key methods that farmers are using to improve food production for the Human population. The booklet covers : Methods of making food production more efficient In plans using selective breeding, chemical fertilisers, pesticides, herbicides etc in animals using selective breeding and the use of antibiotics

The booklet covers the difficult concept of how haemoglobin transports oxygen around the body and how the haemoglobin undergoes configurational change so that it bonds oxygen more easily after the first oxygen has joined. The booklet then introduces Oxygen dissociation curves why they are sigmoid shape and how they are made including what the partial pressures means in terms of tissues in the body. There are various amount of tasks in the booklet students are challenged to make a dissociation curve with some data and need to answer some key questions on what is happening at different parts of the graph in relation to partial pressure and haemoglobin shape. The booklet then compares haemoglobin with both myglobin the oxygen storage molecule found in muscles and foetal haemoglobin. Both have questions on what these molecules do and where they are situated on the oxygen dissociation curve graph in relation to adult haemoglobin. The booklet then introduces carbon dioxide transport in great detail and the three main methods it is transported in the blood. The booklet then finishes on the Bohr effect and how carbon dioxide affects the oxygen dissociation curve and what happens when different carbon dioxide concentrations affect haemogobin loading and unloading.

The resource is for pupils undertaking GCSE Science/ Biology and the topic of Monoclonal Antibodies how they are made and their uses. It consists of a starter and main activity that is called 7 monkeys ( This is a teaching and learning activity that really helps pupils remember a hard and difficult topic of Biology) Pupils will be given paper and the teacher will talk them through the process of making monoclonal Antibodies. This will be learned through pupils making their own diagrams and drawings to the sequence Two previous pupils drawing are attached to help for SEN pupils

This Booklet on Smoking and Vaping teaches clearly the diseases linked and the effects they cause. It goes into great detail starting with the Substances that are found in Cigarettes including Tar, Carbon monoxide and Nicotine. The booklet then explain the effects of Tar on the gaseous exchange system. Diseases that are explained in great detail are : Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary disease Chronic Bronchitis Emphysema Lung cancer Each disease is explained how Tar and smoking is the cause then further explaining Consequences, Symptoms and treatment. The Booklet then explains the effect of Nicotine and Carbon monoxide passing into the blood and causing changes in circulation. leading to Cardiovascular Disease. The three most significant Cardiovascular diseases are the explained Atherosclerosis Coronary heart disease Stroke The booklet then explains how Cardiovascular disease can be prevented the risk factors associated with it. The last section educates on the new trend of vaporised Nicotine . Users inhale vapor through the mouth from a usually battery-operated electronic device (such as an electronic cigarette). This section explains all of the substances found in vapes and their effects on the body.
