TRANSCRIPT
Activity 3.1 What is a disease?Notebook: Infectious diseases
List all the infectious diseases you can think of.
What do you think is the cause of each disease?
Activity 3.1 What is a disease?
Activity 3.2 What causes disease?Notebook: Pathogens1. Watch the video about the Bairnsdale ulcers and note the following:
a. Pathogen
b. Symptoms
c. Method of spread
d. Treatment
Activity 3.2 What causes disease?
2. Explore all the resources in Activity 3.2 and complete the following table.
Activity 3.2 What causes disease?
Type of pathogen
List one example of a disease caused by this pathogen
Sketch the pathogen
Describe the disease caused in humans (symptoms, method of spread, treatment)
Bacterium
Virus
Fungus
Protozoan
Activity 3.3 Detecting and treating diseaseNotebook: Cholera1. What did a yellow flag indicate in 19th Century London?
2. Look up the word ‘physician’. What does it mean?
3. What causes cholera disease?
4. What is ‘miasma’?
Activity 3.3 Detecting and treating disease
5. Why did John Snow order that the handle be removed from the Broad Street pump?
Activity 3.3 Detecting and treating disease
Activity 3.4 Defending against infectionNotebook: Defending against infection1. List two barriers that prevent pathogens entering the human body and
explain how they work.
2. What is the role of the white blood cells called phagocytes in protecting us from disease?
Activity 3.4 Defending against infection
3. Explain how the white blood cells called lymphocytes destroy pathogens that enter our blood.
4. Do you know how the parts of the immune system work together to prevent disease? Make a concept map using the following terms:-
Lymphatic vesselsLymph fluidThymusWhite blood cellsPhagocytesLymphocytesSpleenBone marrowLymph nodes

Lesson Outcomes Checklist Part 3NAME:
ACTIVITYLESSON OUTCOMESAt the end of these activities I can:
Please indicate if you achieved each learning
outcome:
= Yes
? = Partly
X = No
Activity 3.1 What is a disease?
list infectious diseases and suggest their causes
Activity 3.2 What causes disease?
identify the main types of pathogens that cause diseases in humans
list the pathogens, symptoms, methods of spread and treatments of several diseases
Activity 3.3 Detecting and treating disease
Describe the role of an epidemiologist
Recount how John Snow used his scientific knowledge of the intestinal damage of cholera disease to determine that it was water-borne, which led to his finding the source of the outbreak, which led to improved public health.
Activity 3.4 Defending against infection
identify the cells, tissues and organs that are part of the immune system
explore and summarise the three lines of defence the body uses against disease; namely the physical and chemical barriers, phagocytes and lymphocytes
Activity 3.5 How have scientists contributed to our understanding of disease?
summarise how scientists have contributed to our understanding of disease and immunity
appreciate how the work of scientists through time have significantly affected my life and the lives of others
