A hormone is a chemical messenger that is secreted (or released) into our bloodstream by specific organs known as glands. Hormones regulate (or control) many processes in our body, including blood glucose levels, water content in blood, general growth, and blood pressure – just to name a few. They produce a specific response when they reach the target organ. JOIN our platform at www.fuseschool.org These videos can be used in a flipped classroom model or as a revision aid.

Sometimes animals and plants cannot get enough oxygen to respire aerobically, such as during intense exercise, but they still need to respire to survive. After all, everything relies on respiration for energy. Luckily there is a back-up plan; anaerobic respiration. The generalised equation for a
Sulfur is the 16th element of the periodic table, and is a non-metal. In its elemental form it is a bright yellow crystalline solid at room temperature. In this video we are going to look at the basic physical and chemical properties of sulfur. We will also discover some real-life applications of s
Respiration is the chemical process that supplies the body with energy for all other life processes: growth and repair of cells, muscle contraction, protein synthesis, sending nerve impulses, absorbing molecules in active transport to name just a few. It happens in ALL living cells, not just anima
