Two comprehensive, engaging, fully resourced lessons explaining everything the KS3 science student need to know about cellular respiration and breathing plus an enjoyable and challenging animated team quest quiz. Each lesson comes with an easy to follow, animated PowerPoint and a collection of sixteen worksheets, guided notes, activities and homework. A one – page flow chart lesson plan shows where logical choices can be made between resources if time requires.
The game is closely related to the topic content and can be used to reinforce learning after the topic has been taught or for test prep. Team Quest is a 61 question, animated, interactive team quiz with built – in scoreboard for up to seven teams. All questions are pictorial and multiple choice.

What’s Covered

• Breathing is movement of air in and out of the lungs.
• Respiration is the release of energy from glucose.
• Aerobic respiration uses oxygen to release energy from glucose.
• Anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen to release energy from glucose and produces lactic acid which causes muscle cramps.
• Anaerobic respiration creates oxygen debt which must be cleared using oxygen and is why breathing rate does not return to normal immediately vigorous activity ceases.
• Yeast is a unicellular fungus that undergoes fermentation.
• Word equations for aerobic respiration and fermentation.
• Conditions necessary for fermentation.
• Breathing is movement of air in and out of the lungs.
• Respiration is the release of energy from glucose.
• Breathing provides the oxygen for aerobic respiration and gets rid of waste carbon dioxide.
• Label the trachea, right bronchus, bronchiole, alveolus, intercostal muscle, rib, diaphragm.
• Label a diagram of an alveolus and show the direction of diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
• Experiment using limewater to compare the amount of carbon dioxide in inhaled and exhaled air.
• Compare the percentage of oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen in inhaled and exhaled air.
• Mechanism of breathing.
• Changes in volume and pressure inside the chest during inhalation and exhalation.
• Evaluate a model of the mechanism of breathing.
• Design an investigation into how breathing rate varies with exercise.

Playing Team Quest Quiz

• Each team will attempt their own three questions, the answer to each of which must be decided by the whole team. If a wrong answer is given, the next question goes to the first hand up and, if correct, that person’s team get to try the rest of the round.

• Each team will also have to solve the clues to identify a fact or process.

• There are five lightning rounds in which team members consult to try to identify a slowly revealed fact or process…

• Memory Test – questions on the order and detail of eleven objects which cross the screen then disappear.

• Individual Rounds

• Two unscramble and identify rounds which consists of a picture which has been cut up and rearranged.

• Memory Test – give coordinates of runners which have moved around a grid

• Finally, the fifteen - question individual bonus round. This round allows flexibility in terms of the time the quiz takes as not all the questions have to be attempted. The quiz therefore can last between 40 and 50 minutes.
