Active Transport
Exchange in the Lungs
Alveoli
Alveoli have thin walls, a large surface area and a rich blood supply
Exchange in the Gut
As the concentration increases in the small intestines active transport will occur to ensure
no food is wasted.
The gills have a large surface area, thin walls and a rich blood supply

The Kidney
The Kidney
• The blood is filtered and all the sugar is reabsorbed.
• Mineral ions and water needed are selectively reabsorbed.
• The mineral ions, water and urea are removed in the urine
• The sugar is reabsorbed by active transport
Dialysis
-If a kidney is damaged or failing dialysis can be carried out.-The dialysis fluid contains the same concentration of glucose and mineral ions as the blood. -The dialysis fluid contains no urea.-It is a time consuming process-Must have a controlled diet
Transplant
-A donor is required-The donor kidney maybe rejected-Must take immunosuppressants drugs for the rest of their life-Can have a normal diet
Bacteria
Antibiotics
• The product made is used as a fuel
• A slurry is produced that is used as a fertiliser
The production of methane is an exothermic reaction
The generators can be built above ground or underground.
• Initial costs are more to build
• Harder to repair• Cheaper long term as
it keeps heat in• Have to be trained to
use it
• Cheaper to build• Easier to repair• Costs more long term as
more heat is radiated• Have to be trained to
use it
More Biogas • Sugar cane and maize is fermented anaerobically to produce ethanol.
• It is distilled.
• It is a carbon neutral fuel.
