How many major body systems does our body have?
12
Which are the organs of the skeletal system?
Bones and joints
Which are the organs of the muscular system?
Muscles and tendons
What is the function of the respiratory system?
It extracts oxygen from the air and eliminate carbon dioxide.
Which are the organs of the circulatory system?
Heart, veins, arteries, blood
Mention all the major body systems
Skeletal, muscular, respiratory, nervous, digestive, reproductive, respiratory, immune, lymphatic, renal, endocrine and integumentary
Which are the functions of the skeletal system?
Protect vital organs, move and produce blood cells.
How many types of muscles are there in our body?
3
Which are the most important organs in the respiratory system?
The lungs
Mention 2 functions of the circulatory system.
It helps tissue get nutrients and oxygen.
It helps tissue get rid of waste products.
It helps the body to fight off disease.
It helps the body to maintain a normal temperature.
It provides the right chemical balance.
What is the function of the nervous system?
It transmits signals between the brain and the rest of the body. In this way, it controls the ability to move, breathe, see, think and more.
What is the name of the bone part where the blood cells are produced?
Bone marrow
What is the function of the skeletal muscles?
They control the movement, posture and balance of our body.
Mention 5 organs of the respiratory system.
Nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchus, bronchioles and alveolar sacs.
Mention 3 functions of the circulatory system. (If they have answer the previous question, you need to give other functions)
It helps tissue get nutrients and oxygen.
It helps tissue get rid of waste products.
It helps the body to fight off disease.
It helps the body to maintain a normal temperature.
It provides the right chemical balance.
Which are the organs of the nervous system?
Brain, brain stem, spinal cord, motor nerves and sensory nerves.
What organs that are not part of the skeletal system help the bones move?
The muscles and the motor nerves
What is the function of the cardiac muscles?
They build up the chambers of the heart and move blood in and out of it.
Which are the functions of the nose?
It moistens, heat and clean the air that gets inside the body.
Which are the three different types of circulation that occur in the body?
Pulmonary, systemic and coronary circulations
What is a body system?
A group of organs that collaborate to do a specific function in the body.
Mention the names and location of 5 bones.
Cranium (head), vertebrae (back), ribs and sternum (chest), humerus, radius and ulna (arms), Femur, tibia, fibula and patella (legs), clavicle and scapula (shoulders)
What is the function of the smooth muscles?
They control internal organs within our body and move involuntarily.
In which part of the respiratory system is the oxygen absorved into the blood?
In the alveolar sacs
Which are the differences between arteries and veins?
1. Areteries transport blood away from the heart while veins transport blood to the heart.
2. Most arteries transport oxygen-rich blood while most veins transport blood with a low level of oxygen.
3. Arteries have thick walls with muscle tissue. Veins have thinner walls and use valves to keep your blood flowing.
