This fully-resourced lesson explains how a combination of hydrostatic pressure and oncotic pressure results in the formation of tissue fluid in animals. The detailed PowerPoint and accompanying resources have been designed to cover the final part of point 3.4.1 of the AQA A-level Biology specification
The lesson begins with an introduction to the arteriole and venule end of a capillary as these will need to be considered as separate entities when describing the formation of tissue fluid. A quick quiz competition introduces a value for the hydrostatic pressure at the arteriole end and students are challenged to first predict some parts of the blood will move out of the capillary as a result of the push from the hydrostatic pressure and this allows oncotic pressure to be initially explored. The main part of the lesson uses a step by step guide to describe how the net movement is outwards at the arteriole end before students will use this guidance to describe what happens at the venule end. In the concluding part of the lesson, students will come to recognise oedema as a condition where tissue fluid accumulates and they again are challenged to explain how this occurs before they finally learn how the fluid is returned to the circulatory system as lymph.

Topic 3: Organisms exchange substances with their environment (AQA A-level Biology)
This lesson bundle contains 17 detailed and fully-resourced lessons which cover the following specification points in topic 3 of the AQA A-level Biology specification: Topic 3.1 * The relationship between the size of an organism or structure and its surface area to volume ratio * The development of systems in larger organisms as adaptations that facilitate exchange as this ratio reduces Topic 3.2 * Adaptations of gas exchange surfaces as shown by gas exchange in single-celled organisms, insects, bony fish and the leaves of dicotyledonous plants * The gross structure of the human gas exchange system * The essential features of the alveolar epithelium as a surface over which gas exchange takes place * The mechanism of breathing to include the role of the diaphragm and the intercostal muscles Topic 3.3 * During digestion, large molecules are hydrolysed to smaller molecules * Digestion in mammals by amylases, disaccharidases, lipase, endopeptidases, exopeptidases and dipeptidases * Mechanisms for the absorption of the products of digestion by cells lining the ileum of mammals Topic 3.4.1 * The structure and role of haemoglobin in the loading, transport and unloading of oxygen * The effects of carbon dioxide concentration on the dissociation of oxyhaemoglobin * The general pattern of blood circulation in a mammal * The gross structure of the human heart * Pressure and volume changes and valve movements during the cardiac cycle * The structure of the arteries, arterioles and veins * The formation of tissue fluid and its return to the circulatory system Topic 3.4.2 * Xylem as the tissue that transports water * The cohesion-tension theory of water transport * Phloem as the tissue that transports organic substances in plants * The mass flow hypothesis for the mechanism of translocation in plants If you would like to sample the quality of the lessons included in this bundle, then download the following lessons which have been uploaded for free Alveolar epithelium Absorption in the ileum Arteries, arterioles and veins Formation of tissue fluid Translocation
