What is plasma
Circulatory System/Cardiovascular System
200
These blood vessels carry oxygen rich blood away from the heart and carry oxygen to the lungs
What is an artery
Circulatory system
200
This component take oxygen from the lungs and deliever it to the cells of the body-they are very small and "pinched shaped" so they can fit through capillaries
"mostly made up of hemoglobin"
What is a red blood cell
200
This component is responsible for most of the mechanical digestion? It has 3 strong layers of muscle that contract to make a churning motion that mixes food with fluid
(it is like a washer machine mixing clothes with soapy water)
What is the Stomach
Digestive system

300
This component of blood are responsible for clotting blood
What is a platelet
300
This component of the blood helps to fight diseases-some identify "intruders" some fight the intruders
What is a white blood cell
300
This system moves oxygen from the outside environment (inhaling) into the body and removes carbon dioxide to outside the body (exhaling)
What is the respiratory system
400
At the end of the bronchial tubes, there are small air sacs where gases are exchanged between the lung and blood (Oxygen goes into blood and CO2 goes into lung to be exhaled)
What are the Alveoli?
Respiratory system
400
The Function of this system is to carry needed substances to cells and carry waste products away from cells.
What is the circulatory system / Cardiovascular system
400
This component produces bile, which is responsible for for breaking up fat particles
What is the liver
Digestive system
400
THis hollow, muscular organ pumps blood through the body- Each time it beats, blood is pushed through the blood vessels as a "pulse"
What is the heart
Cardiovascular system
400
This component of the __________ transports blood back to the heart in order for it to be pumped to the lungs to get Oxygen and get rid of carbon dioxide. They also have valves so blood cannot flow backwards!
What is a vein
circulatory system
500
A Disease that occurs when there is a build up of fatty materials in the arteries & narrows the blood vessel -restricting blood flow--that leads to heart attacks
What is atherosclerosis
(Respiratory system and Circulatory system)
500
This group of heart cells sends out signals that makes the heart muscles contract ("beat")
What are pacemaker cells
Circulatory system
500
The function of this system is to break down food into molecules the cells can use and the molecules are absorbed into the blood and circulated throughout the body-
What is the digestive system
500
Most nutrients, vitamins, proteins, are absorbed in this component of the ___________. The sides are lined with villi to increase surface area for absorption
What is the small intestine
500
This component of the ____________ is where materials are exchanged between the blood and bodies cells (by diffusion). They are so small only one red blood cell can pass through at a time- every cell in your body makes contact with a _____________
