Balanced diet A balanced diet should contain fats, proteins and carbohydrates in roughly these amounts: It should also contain water, vitamins, minerals and fibre.
Poor diets Lack of… Causes… If we don’t have a balanced diet we may suffer form a “deficiency symptom”:
Muscles and the skeleton Muscles are said to work in “antagonistic pairs”. This is because they oppose each other’s movement: The skeleton does 3 jobs: • It gives the body SHAPE • It allows the body to MOVE • It PROTECTS the major organs
Joints An “immovable” joint “Hinge” joints A “ball and socket” joint A “slightly” movable joint”
A typical joint – the knee Ligaments – hold the joint together Synovial fluid – an oily substance that reduces friction Cartilage – stops the bones from rubbing against each other
The Respiratory System Trachea – has stiff rings of cartilage to prevent it collapsing Bronchi Bronchioles Rib muscles – to raise and lower the ribs Ribs – to protect the chest Lung Alveoli (“air sacs”) – gas exchange takes place here Diaphragm – muscular sheet
Gas exchange • Alveoli are very good at exchanging gases because… • They have a LARGE surface area • They have a good blood supply • They are moist
Smoking • Cigarettes contain 3 harmful things: • NICOTINE, which is an ___________ drug that raises the heart beat, narrows the arteries and so causes ____ _____ _____. This leads to heart _________. • TAR, which coats the lining of the _______ making them less able to take in oxygen.

Words – high blood pressure, oxygen, red, addictive, disease, poisonous gas, lungs, cancer
Damaging the alveoli (emphysema) Before smoking After smoking – less surface area
