This week for PE the task was to make and finish a slideshow about The Cardio Respiratory System.
This it to do with our heart, lungs, blood and muscles
Here's 2 questions I had to research:
What are the three major cell types that you would find in the blood?
White Blood Cells, Red Blood Cells and Platelets
What is there purpose?
White blood cells are an important part of the immune system. They help you fight infections by fighting bacteria, germs and viruses that grow in the body. These come from the bone marrow but circulate throughout the bloodstream.
Red blood cells contains oxygen and get rid of the carbon dioxide from your body, transporting it to the lungs for you to exhale. Red blood cells are also made in the bone marrow.
Platelets are small blood cells that help your body from clots to stop bleeding. If a blood vessel gets damaged, it sends out signs to the platelets. The platelets rush to the site of damage and they form a clot to fix the damage.
