Circulatory
The three main parts of the circulatory system
Heart, Blood Vessels and Blood
Vessels that carry oxygen rich blood AWAY from the heart.
Arteries
Oxygen enters the body
Nasal cavity/passage
The three main parts of the nervous system
Brain, Spinal Cord and Nerves
Largest part of your brain
Cerebrum
Two ways to describe the heart muscle...
1. Cardiac Muscle 2. Involuntary Muscle 3. The size of your fist 4. Two sides/Four chambers
Vessels that carry blood back to the heart after they have delivered oxygen.
Veins
Bony tube that lead to lungs
Trachea
The job of the nervous system is to help your body respond to outside ____________.
Stimuli
Part of your brain that controls involuntary movements (heart beating, swallowing, digestion...)
Medulla
The right side of the heart pumps blood to the ______ to receive oxygen.
Lungs
The smallest vessels that CONNECT arteries and veins throughout the body.
Capillaries
Two tubes that branch off from trachea and lead to each lung.
Bronchi
The name of the parts of nervous system that extends to the rest of your body from your Spinal Cord
Peripheral Nervous System
Back of the brain that controls balance and coordination
Cerebellum
Why does the left side of your heart pump blood to the other cells, tissues and organs in your body?
To deliver oxygen.
Red
The main respiratory system organ that fills with air.
Lung
Type of nerve that sends information about touch, taste, sight, etc. to the brain.
Sensory Nerves
Part of your brain that controls voluntary muscle movements and your reaction to senses...
Cerebrum
Capillaries/Alveoli
Blood cells that defend against disease
White
Small groups of lung tissue that fill with oxygen and are surrounded by capillaries to transfer oxygen to bloodstream
Alveoli
Type of nerve that sends a message from the brain to the body to move.
Somatic Motor Nerves
Part of the Central Nervous System
Brain and Spinal cord
DAILY DOUBLE :)
Why is the skeletal system very important to the circulatory system.
Because blood cells are produced in bone marrow.
Part of blood that causes it to clot
Platelets
The involuntary muscle that causes lungs to inflate and deflate
Diaphragm
Type of nerve that sends constant messages to involuntary muscles and organs telling them to function. (ex: heart, stomach, bladder...)
Autonomic Motor Nerves
A reaction based on the signals that your sensory nerves send to your brain.
Response to a stimuli
