| A | B |
|---|
| Blood glucose | Reduced by insulin |
| Bloodstream | Glucose is removed from here when insulin is released |
| Glycogen | What glucose is turned into and stored as in the liver |
| Energy storage | What glycogen is used for |
| Liver | Where glycogen is made |
| Glucose | What you join together to make glycogen |
| Diabetes | People who don't produce insulin |
| Increases | What happens to blood sugar levels after a meal |
| Respiration | A process which turns glucose into carbon dioxide and water |
| Pancreas | Releases insulin into the bloodstream |
| Stomach | Digestive organ above the pancreas |
| Fat | Used to insulate the body |
| Hair | Traps insulating layer of air next to the skin |
| Pore | Hole which sweat comes out of |
| Sweat gland | Active when you're hot |
| Liver | Active when you're cold |
| Muscles | Active when you shiver |
| Heat | Released when the liver and muscles are very active |
| Dilate | Blood vessels near the skin surface do it when you need to lose heat |
| Constrict | Blood vessels near the surface of the skin do it when you are cold and must conserve heat |
| Vasodilation | Widening of blood vessels |
| Vasoconstriction | Narrowing of blood vessels |
| Denature | Enzymes do it when they get too hot |
| Kinetic energy | Enzymes don't have enough when they cool down too much |
| Collisions | There aren't as many when reactants get too cold |
| Optimum | The 'best' temperature for an enzyme to work at |
| Brain | Where the receptors are which detect core body temperature |
| Skin | The organ which controls body temperature |
| Urea | A waste product made when you break down proteins |
| Kidney | Filters blood |
| Water | Taken in food, excess removed by the lungs and the kidney |
| Respiration | A source of water in an active cell |
| High pressure | Speeds up filtering of blood in the kidney |
| Reabsorption | Process which recovers useful molecules filtered out of the blood in the kidney |
| Amino acids | A substance reabsorbed from the filtrate in the kidney and used to make protein |
| ADH | Hormone which reduces water loss in the urine |
| Concentrated | What the urine is like when you have a lot of ADH in your blood |
| Pituitary | Gland which releases ADH |
| Blood plasma | Carries ADH around the body |
| Dehydration | What you would suffer from if you couldn't make ADH |
