Flashcards- Digital File- AQA GCSE Combined and Triple Biology- The Blood

These flashcards are for AQA GCSE Combined Science: Trilogy (8464) and Biology: Triple Science (8461). They cover key topics about blood, its components, and their functions, including:

• Red blood cells and how they transport oxygen using haemoglobin

• White blood cells, including lymphocytes and phagocytes, and how they defend the body by engulfing pathogens, producing antibodies, and antitoxins

• Platelets and how they trigger blood clotting, forming scabs that protect wounds and prevent infection

• Plasma and the substances it carries, including water, proteins, ions, nutrients, hormones, gases, and waste products
  

Even if you’re following a different exam board, these flashcards are perfect for revising blood, the circulatory system, and the immune system.

🔑 Tip: Don’t just read them, actively test yourself with these Q&A flashcards repeatedly. For the best results, pair them with my guide on “How to Use Flashcards” for an effective study routine.
