The system that sends signals throughout the body.....
What is the Nervous system?
Organ system that captures oxygen from the atmosphere...
What is the Respiratory System?
What are the levels of organization from simple to most complex?
Cell, tissue, organ, organ system, organism
What are the benefits of exercise daily?
It helps keep your heart, blood vessels, lungs and bones healthy. Exercise also reduces stress, helps you sleep well and make you feel good.
These are small structures in a cell that have a specific job.
Cell organelles
Which organs make up the circulatory system?
What are the heart and blood vessels.
Organ that contains acid and breaks food down
What is the STOMACH !
The basic building blocks of all LIVING Organisms are.... 5 letters ;)
Cells
What are the organs that make up the circulatory system?
What are the heart and blood vessels?
Why doesn't the heart muscle get tired ? (What organelle gives heart cells their energy? )
The cells in the heart muscle "mitochondria"- the powerhouse of the cell.
This organ of the circulatory system pumps blood throughout the heart.
What is the HEART!
A waste gas that is transported in veins from the body to the lungs via the heart.
what is Carbon Dioxide?
Which level of organization is a plant?
Organism
Name 2 body systems that work together in order to get you to breathe in
Respiratory, nervous and muscular body system.
What does a neuron do?
Carries a signal from the brain to the body.
The small sacks inside your lungs
What are Alveoli!
These two pipes share an opening at the back of your throat...one pipe/tube takes food to the stomach, the other pipe/tube takes air to the lungs
What are the Esophagus and Trachea (Windpipe)?
The heart, vein, arteries is an example of which level of organization?
organ system
Organ system that transports oxygen and food around your body
What is the Circulatory SYSTEM !
Red blood cells: Carry oxygen and carbon dioxide
White blood cells: Fight infections
Platelets: Clot blood.
What is unique about the veins and arteries located inside the heart? (Pulmonary veins/arteries)
Pulmonary arteries carry low-oxygen blood to the lungs!
Pulmonary veins carry blood that is high in oxygen to the heart from the lungs.
Explain the 3 types of blood vessels
veins carry blood vessel that carries low oxygen blood back to the heart.
arteries carry blood vessels that carry high-oxygen blood from the heart to the body.
Capillaries is where the gas exchange happens in the body. (Oxygen is dropped off carbon dioxide is picked up)
List these in order from biggest to smallest
organ system, organelle,Cell, organ, organism , population, atom
population, organism, organ system, organ, cell, atom
Explain how the respiratory and circulatory system interact/work together.
The circulatory and respiratory systems work as a unified unit to provide cells with oxygen and remove carbon dioxide waste. The respiratory system brings oxygen into the lungs and expels CO2, while the circulatory system transports these gases throughout the body
How the 3 body systems interact in the fight or flight response.
The nervous system receives a threat (visual/auditory) and sends signals to the lungs and heart.
Breathing increases, and heart rate increases to transport more oxygen to the body and remove more CO2
