This ‘body cell’ circle represents what goes in and out of a
body cell. Copy and complete the circle using all the words in
the list: Oxygen; Food; Carbon Dioxide; Water Vapour; Energy

Carbon Dioxide
 
Water Vapour
 
(b) Make a list of the ways you think we use the energy released
in respiration.
Any activity or exercise, e.g. sleeping, walking, eating, talking,
running, playing a sport.
 
(c) You have just finished playing a game of basketball. You used
more energy playing the game than you did when you were
watching television, as your body systems had to work harder
than normal.
 
(i) Describe what happened to your circulatory system and 
 
your
breathing system during and after the game.
Heart rate and breathing rate increased.
 
(c) You have just finished playing a game of basketball. You used
more energy playing the game than you did when you were
watching television, as your body systems had to work harder
than normal.
 
(ii) Explain why the events in part (i) happened.
The body requires more oxygen to be delivered to the cells so
that respiration can occur to release energy.
 
Equipment: 
A handful of germinating peas, two flasks, two
thermometers, some cotton wool, a beaker, a tripod, some wire
gauze, some water, a pair of tongs, a sieve or filter paper, two
labels.
Instructions
:
1.Label one flask 'treated' and the other 'untreated'.
2.Split the peas into two batches. Put half into the beaker, place
on gauze on tripod and boil for three minutes.
(This will kill the peas)
3.Remove the beaker from the tripod using the tongs.
4.Using the sieve or filter paper, remove the peas from the water
after they have cooled down.
5.Place un-boiled/treated peas into one flask and the
boiled/treated peas into the other.
 
Investigation 05.02.01: Showing that respiration takes place
 
Instructions
:
6. Place a thermometer into each flask and cotton wool at the
top around the thermometer to stop heat from escaping.
7. Record the temperature after one minute of the peas being in
both flasks.
8. Monitor the temperature within the flasks over a day or until
next class.
9. Record results.
 
 
Investigation 05.02.01: Showing that respiration takes place
 
 
 
1. What is the control in your investigation?
Boiled peas.
 
 
 
 
 
 
2. Why do you think a control is necessary?
To prove that respiration does happen in living things and the
control can then be used to compare the results between a
living and a non-living thing.
 
 
 
3. What do you predict will be the result of the
investigation?
The untreated/un-boiled peas will respire and the temperature
within the flask will increase.
The flask with the treated/boiled peas will have no temperature
change from the start of the investigation.
 
 
LIGHTBULB QUESTION
 
Water vapour can be seen when one breathes on a cold
surface such as a window or a mirror.
 
Equipment: 
You and a partner, results table, stopwatch.
Instructions:
1. Students to measure heart rate and breathing rate.
2. For heart rate instructions, see Investigation 03.03.01: How
exercise affects your body (p.61).
3. For breathing rate instructions see Investigation 03.04.02:
How do different levels of exercise affect breathing rate? (p70).
 
Investigation 05.02.02: Showing that respiration demands
affect heart and breathing rates
 
 
 
Copy and Complete
In this unit I learned that respiration is the 
release
 of 
energy
 from
foods. It happens in our body cells. The food we take into our body
gets broken down and we take in 
oxygen
 from the air. The food,
which is called 
glucose
, and the oxygen both travel to the cells in the
blood
. In the cells a 
chemical
 reaction takes place and 
energy
 is
released as it happens. After the reaction the cell releases carbon
dioxide and water vapour. The carbon dioxide and water vapour are
released from the body when we breathe out.
 
 
 
Copy and Complete
Plants use the 
carbon
 
dioxide
 
that we release when they make food
during 
photosynthesis
. There are two types of respiration: 
aerobic
 is
the release of energy using oxygen; anaerobic is the release of a
small
 
amount of energy without using 
oxygen
. In order for the body
to get more oxygen to the muscles to make energy, it must breathe
quicker
 
to take in more oxygen and the heart must pump blood
faster
 as it transports this oxygen to the muscles.
 
1. Describe what happens during respiration.
Food and oxygen are taken into the body cell. A chemical
reaction occurs and carbon dioxide, water vapour and energy
are released.
 
 
 
 
 
 
2. Write out the word equation for respiration.
Food + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water vapour + energy
 
 
 
 
 
 
3. Can you explain how digested food is used by the body?
It is absorbed into the blood at the small intestines and travels
to the body cells. The broken-down food molecules travel in
the blood to the body cells where they are taken in and used in
the chemical reaction, respiration.
 
 
 
 
 
 
4. How do you think the glucose and oxygen needed for
aerobic respiration get to all the body’s cells?
Both glucose and oxygen travel in the blood to get to the
body's cells for aerobic respiration.
 
 
 
 
 
5. Describe how our breathing rate changes when we exercise.
 The breathing rate increases during exercise which increases
the amount of oxygen taken in and the amount of carbon
dioxide that is removed.
 
 
 
 
 
6. State what the two types of respiration are. Explain what is
involved in each.
Aerobic respiration involves the release of energy from cells
using oxygen.
Anaerobic respiration involves releasing energy from the cells
without using oxygen.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
7. The equations for photosynthesis and respiration are shown
below. Spend a few minutes looking at both. Make a list of
any similarities and differences between them.
Similarities: A gas is taken in for both reactions to occur, both
produce a gas during the reaction, energy is involved in both
reactions.
Differences: The gases involved are different, In photosynthesis
energy is trapped and along with the gas used to produce
food, in respiration energy is released by the reaction between
the food and the gas.
Slide Note

Note to teacher: All slides can be edited to suit your own classroom objectives. Slides with click and reveal boxes or animations will only work in slide show view and have specific instructions noted if needed.
