A cell must maintain a stable internal environment in order to function properly. The process by which the body maintains a stable internal cellular environment is called homeostasis.
To sustain life, many substances need to be transported into, out of, and between cells. The term ‘cell respiration’ refers to the controlled exchange of nutrients (such as oxygen and glucose) and waste (such as carbon dioxide) by the cell to activate the energy needed for the cell to function.
Substances are absorbed, or excreted, through the cell membrane in several different ways.
Diffusion is the process by which small molecules move from an area of high concentration to lower concentration. It is the basis by which the cells lining the small intestines take in digestive products to be used by the body.
Osmosis refers to the movement of water through the cell membrane from areas of low chemical concentration to areas of high chemical concentration. This allows for the dilution of chemicals, which are unable to cross the cell membrane by diffusion, in order to maintain equilibrium within the cell.
The movement of water and dissolved substances across the cell membrane due to differences in pressure is called filtration ; an example of this is in the kidneys.
Active transport is used when cells needs to transport substances against their concentration gradient. This is an energy dependent process in which the cell takes in larger molecules that would be otherwise unable to enter in sufficient quantities. This process is the means by which the cell absorbs glucose.
The method by which a cell absorbs small particles outside the cell and brings them inside is called pinocytosis ; this process is usually used for taking in extracellular fluid.
Phagocytosis is the process by which a cell engulfs particles. such as bacteria, other micro-organisms and foreign matter.

20 Nail growth occurs from the nail matrix by cell division. As new cells are produced in the matrix, older cells are pushed forward and are hardened by the process of keratinisation, which forms the hardened nail plate. It takes approximately six months for cells to travel from the lunula to the free edge of the nail for fingernails, and approximately nine to twelve months for toenails.

Skeletal Type of muscle tissue attached to bone
Neuromuscular junction
Site where nerve fibres and muscle fibres meet
Cardiac Type of muscle tissue found in the walls of the heart
Motor point End part of nerve through which the stimulus to contract is given to the muscle fibre
Myofibrils Contractile elements of a skeletal muscle fibre
Insertion Most movable part of the muscle during contraction
Tendon Tough fibrous band that links muscle to bone
Muscle tone State of partial contraction of a muscle
Fascia Fibrous connective tissue that envelops a muscle
Linea alba Long tendon extending from the bottom of the sternum to the pubic symphysis
When a stimulus is applied to voluntary muscle fibres via a motor nerve, a mechanical action is initiated.
During contraction a sliding movement occurs within the contractile fibres of the muscle. The actin protein filaments move inwards towards the myosin and the two filaments merge.
This action causes the muscle fibres to shorten and thicken and then pull on their attachments (bones and joints) to effect the movement required. The attachment of myosin cross-bridges to actin requires calcium.
The nerve impulses leading to contraction cause an increase in sodium ions within the muscle cell. During relaxation, the muscle fibres elongate and return to their original shape.

Vasodilation: is the widening of the vessels, resulting in an increased vascular diameter; heat in the blood is lost through radiation, allowing the body to cool down. 4 Pericardium, myocardium, endocardium 5 a Diastolic: minimum pressure of the heartbeat; when the heart muscle relaxes and blood flows into the heart from the veins. b Systolic: maximum pressure of the heartbeat; represents the pressure exerted on the arterial wall during active ventricular contraction.

Blood is the primary transport medium for a variety of substances that travel throughout the body. Oxygen is carried from the lungs to the cells of the body in red blood cells, and carbon dioxide is carried from the body’s cells to the lungs. Other substances carried in the blood include nutrients such as glucose , amino acids, vitamins and minerals, and cellular wastes such as water, lactic acid and urea to be excreted.
Hormones , which are internal secretions that help to control important body processes, are transported by the blood to target organs.
White blood cells are collectively called leucocytes. They play a major role in combating infection and fighting disease.
Phagocytes have the ability to engulf and ingest micro-organisms that invade the body and cause disease. Specialised white blood cells called lymphocytes produce antibodies to protect the body against infection.
Blood also helps to regulate heat in the body by absorbing large quantities produced by the liver and the muscles. This is then transported around the body to help to maintain a constant internal temperature. Blood also helps to regulate the body’s pH balance.
Clotting is an effective mechanism in controlling blood loss from blood vessels when they have become damaged, as in a cut. Specialised blood cells called thrombocytes , or platelets, form a clot around the damaged area to prevent the body from losing too much blood and to prevent the entry of bacteria.
