Human Body Systems 1
This body system includes our bones and gives our body structure & support.
What is the Skeletal System?
Uses hormones to communicate with the body.
What is the endocrine system?
The thing that applies energy to cells is
Food (or glucose)
Explain what may happen if the red blood cells decrease.
Red blood cells carry resources such as oxygen to the cells in the body, including cells in the brain. If the production of red blood cells decrease, the brain may not receive enough oxygen or other resources.
Name the 5 senses of the human body.
What are smell, taste, sight, touch, and hearing?
This body system carries oxygen-rich blood and nutrients throughout the cells in the body.
What is the Circulatory System?
Enables the body to move.
What is the muscular system?
The body system that sends signals all over your body and receives information from the environment.
What is the nervous system?
All team members must dance like a ballerina to receive points for this question.
Beautiful!
Name two organelles that are in plant cells but
What are the cell wall and chloroplast?
Explain how organ systems interact to get oxygen to the cells.
Oxygen enters our lungs, the enters our blood stream in the capillaries. The circulatory system carries oxygen to the cells.
The body system responsible for bringing oxygen into the body and getting rid of carbon dioxide.
What is the Respiratory System?
The small tubes that carry blood AWAY from the heart.
What are arteries?
This body system helps you break down food and turns food into nutrient molecules.
What is the Digestive System?
Name the six organ systems we learned about in class.
What is the Respiratory System, Digestive System, Circulatory System, Nervous System, Skeletal System, Muscular System?
Gets rid of liquid waste from the body
What is excretory system?
Order these from smallest to largest: organ, organelle, organ system, tissue, cell.
The small bones in your spine that protect your spinal cord.
What are vertebrae?
Put the responses in order starting with the structure that would be first affected if the heart muscle cells die.
Heart dies
Circulatory system is unable to function and human dies
Heart cells die
Heart tissue dies
Heart cells die
Heart tissue dies
Heart dies
Circulatory system is unable to function and human dies
These finger-like projections allow more absorption of nutrients and are located where?
What are villi and small intestines?
What role do muscles play in digestion?
The large, hollow organs of the digestive tract contain a layer of muscle that enables their walls to move. The movement of organ walls can propel food and liquid through the system and mix the contents within each organ. Food moves from one organ to the next through muscle action called peristalsis.
What two body systems allow us to move and can not fully function without the other?
What are the muscular and skeletal systems?
Describe how organ systems interact to get food.
It goes into the digest system, is broken down into food molecules. The food molecules enter the bloodstream from the small intestine and the circulatory system carries them to the cells.
Describe how the circulatory system supports aerobic cellular respiration.
The circulatory system carries oxygen and glucose to the cells where they are used to produce usable energy for the cell through aerobic cellular respiration.
