This page concludes the blood clotting process, showing the final stages from fibrin formation to complete clot development.
Vocabulary: Fibrin - A protein that forms threads to create a mesh-like structure in blood clots.
Highlight: The process culminates in the formation of a tangled mesh that traps blood cells, resulting in a complete blood clot.
This section outlines the path of blood through the heart and details the four essential components needed for blood clotting.
Definition: The clotting process requires four key elements: platelets, clotting factors, fibrin, and other supporting cells.
Example: Blood flows from the lungs through pulmonary veins to the left atrium, demonstrating the complexity of circulation.
This page bridges cardiovascular and biochemical concepts, introducing carbohydrate chemistry while concluding clotting mechanisms.
Highlight: The clotting process involves platelets becoming activated and sticky, forming a plug over the opening.
Definition: A condensation reaction in carbohydrate formation releases a water molecule as two molecules combine.
Detailed examination of monosaccharide structures and their chemical properties, particularly focusing on glucose.
Vocabulary: Hydrolysis - The chemical breakdown of compounds through reaction with water.
Example: Glucose structure is shown with its characteristic ring formation and hydroxyl group positions.
This page presents detailed molecular structures of galactose and fructose, along with an introduction to disaccharides.
Definition: Glycosidic bonds are chemical bonds that join monosaccharides together to form more complex carbohydrates.
Highlight: The molecular structures show the specific arrangement of hydroxyl groups and carbon atoms in different monosaccharides.
The final page focuses on the formation of disaccharides through glycosidic bonding.
Vocabulary: Glycosidic bond - The chemical bond that joins monosaccharides together in disaccharides and larger carbohydrates.
Example: The formation of disaccharides demonstrates how simple sugars combine to create more complex carbohydrates.
The first page details the progressive stages of atherosclerosis development and initial blood clot formation. The process begins with artery wall damage and proceeds through inflammatory responses to plaque formation.
Definition: Atherosclerosis is a condition where arteries become narrowed and hardened due to plaque buildup.
Highlight: The process involves 19 distinct stages, beginning with artery wall damage and culminating in thrombin and fibrinogen formation.
Example: The inflammatory response triggers white blood cells to enter the artery wall, leading to cholesterol accumulation and eventual plaque formation.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

Just amazing. Let's me revise 10x better, this app is a quick 10/10. I highly recommend it to anyone. I can watch and search for notes. I can save them in the subject folder. I can revise it any time when I come back. If you haven't tried this app, you're really missing out.

This app has made me feel so much more confident in my exam prep, not only through boosting my own self confidence through the features that allow you to connect with others and feel less alone, but also through the way the app itself is centred around making you feel better. It is easy to navigate, fun to use, and helpful to anyone struggling in absolutely any way.

I know a lot of apps use fake accounts to boost their reviews but this app deserves it all. Originally I was getting 4 in my English exams and this time I got a grade 7. I didn’t even know about this app three days until the exam and it has helped A LOT. Please actually trust me and use it as I’m sure you too will see developments.
