Answer
P : Red Blood cell / erythrocyte
Q: White bloodcells /leucocytes /eosinophil /neutrophill/basophil
Able to explain the function of R in body defense.
Criteria

Explanation of blood clotting mechanism

Sample answer:
When the blood vessel is damaged and expose to the air
platelets clump together / producing platelet plug at the site
// Release chemical to gather more platelets /to make nearby platelets
sticky
to reduce blood lose
forming thromboplastin/thrombokinase
Able to explain one difference between P and Q
Criteria

Difference in shape and explanation//

F1: P (RBC) has a biconcave disc shape but Q (WBC) has irregular shape
//P has no nucleus but Q has (large) nucleus.
P1: Gves P has large surface area to volume ratio (to speed up exchange of
respiratory gases) compared Q

F2 : P has haemoglobin, but Q has no haemoglobin

P2 : P can transport oxygen (in the form of oxyhemoglobin) but Q can not
transport oxygen.

Able to explain Formation of Fluid Q (Interstitial Fluid)

P1: The heart pump the blood in high pressure
P2: When the blood flows from arteries into capillaries which has smaller
diameter/lumen
P3 : there is higher hydrostatic pressure at the arterial end of the
capillaries
P4: (This high pressure) forces some plasma/fluid to (reject :
diffuse/move)
P5:pass through the capillary walls into the intercellular spaces (between
the cells)
P6: (Once the fluid leaves the capillary walls), it is called interstitial/tissue
fluid // The interstitial fluid fills the spaces between the cells and
constantly bathes the cells

Able to explain Fluid Q is returned to the blood circulatory system to

prevent the swelling of the tissues.
P1: Hydrostatic pressure at the venous end of blood capillary
P2: about 90% of the excess interstitial fluid diffuses back into blood
capillary (reject : capillary only)
P3: about 10%/the remaining of the excess interstitial fluid reabsorbed
into the lymph capillaries.
P4 :Once inside the lymph capillaries the fluid is known as lymph// lymph
is formed
P5: No accumulation of excess interstitial fluid between the cells
P6:Oedema is prevented
