What are the two main functions of the muscular system?
Movement and strength
What are the four main parts of the respiratory system?
Nose, Trachea, Lungs, and the diaphragm
What are the three main parts of the cardiovascular system?
The heart, blood vessels (arteries, veins, capillaries), and blood.
What organ is the control center (command center) for the body?
The Brain
What are the 5 main parts of the digestive system?
Mouth, Esophagus, Stomach, Small Intestine, and Large Intestine.
List the five main functions (jobs) of the skeletal system
1. Support
2. Shape
3. Movement
4. Protects vital organs
5. Make Blood Cells
1. What is the main function of the respiratory system?
2. What does it give to the body and what does it get rid of?
1. Breathing
2. Gives the body oxygen and gets rid of carbon dioxide (waste)
What is the main function (or job) of the cardiovascular system?
To send oxygen and nutrients to all parts of the body through the bloodstream. Also, it helps the body to get rid of waste (carbon dioxide)
What are the three main parts of the nervous system?
The brain, spinal cord, and nerves.
What is the main purpose of the digestive system?
To turn food into energy for the body
What are the three main types of muscles found in the body?
Smooth Muscles - digestive system, respiratory system (involuntary)
Cardiac Muscles - heart muscles that help pump blood (involuntary)
Skeletal Muscles - Help move bones (voluntary)
What type of action is breathing? Involuntary or voluntary?
Involuntary. But an argument could be made for both.
1. Carries oxygen rich blood away from the heart to all parts of the body?
2. Carries oxygen poor blood from the body back to the heart?
1. Arteries
2. Veins
What part of the nervous system helps sends signals to and from the brain? (Also known as the highway of the nervous system)
The Spinal Cord
How does the muscular system work with the digestive system?
Your muscles push food and nutrients through your digestive system.
Which system does the respiratory work with to transport oxygen to all parts of the body?
The Circulatory system. The oxygen travels through the blood stream.
Which two systems does the cardiovascular system work with to send oxygen and nutrients to all parts of the body?
The respiratory system and the digestive system
What do you have all over your body that gathers information/signals to send to the brain?
The Nerves
Describe how the skeletal system works with the digestive system
The skeletal system protects the organs that work in your digestive system.
The teeth grind up food for you to eat.
How does the skeletal system work alongside the respiratory system?
It protects the lungs with the ribcage.
After we breathe in oxygen to our lungs, where does the oxygen go? (Hint: Looking for two answers)
Oxygen enters the blood and then goes to the heart
How does the circulatory system and the respiratory system work together?
The respiratory system brings in oxygen to your blood, and the circulatory system pushes this oxygen rich blood around your body.

What body system does the nervous system control?

All of them
Skeletal, muscular, cardiovascular, respiratory, and digestive
Which body system works with the digestive system to help transport nutrients all throughout the body?
Circulatory System
