heart | An organ made of muscle that acts as a pump to move blood around your body. |
blood vessels | The tubes that carry blood throughout the body. |
blood | The fluid that is pumped through the circulatory system, made of plasma, platelets, red blood cells and white blood cells. |
oxygen | A gas necessary for life. A reactant in the cellular respiration reaction that helps extract energy from glucose. |
carbon dioxide | A gaseous waste product in the cellular respiration reaction. |
nutrients | Necessary substances that are carried by the blood to all cells, in order for organisms to grow and survive. |
cellular wastes | Substances that your cells no longer need, and want to get rid of. |
glucose | A simple sugar that comes from breaking down carbohydrates into simpler molecules. The formula is C6H12O6 |
cellular respiration | A reaction that occurs in ALL CELLS to turn glucose into usable energy. Oxygen and glucose are the reactants. The products are water, carbon dioxide and ENERGY. C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O → 12H2O + 6 CO2 + ENERGY |
4 parts of blood | Red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets & plasma |
red blood cells | Cells in blood that carry oxygen, with the help of hemoglobin. |
