Body System Roles
This body system gives our body structure & support
Skeletal System
The part of the body where food enters and digestion begins
Mouth
Two body systems that work together to deliver oxygen to a person's cells
Circulatory System and Respiratory System
This organ pumps blood throughout our body and is the most important part of the Circulatory System.
Heart
The 3 types of blood vessels found in a person's body
Veins, Arteries, and Capillaries
This body system delivers oxygen-rich blood and nutrients to all parts of the body carries oxygen-poor back to the heart
Circulatory System
Biceps and triceps are included in this body system and while one contracts, the other relaxes
Muscular system
Two body systems work together to support the body and allow the body to move
Skeletal and Muscular systems
Main function of the digestive system
Turn food into energy
A body system that sends chemical messengers or hormones through the body in order to maintain homeostasis
Endocrine System
This body system has the job of exchanging carbon dioxide & oxygen with the environment
Respiratory system

Digestive system
Two body systems that move toxins and remove the toxins from the blood
Circulatory System and Urinary System
Primary function of the nervous system
Communicate with other systems
How does the circulatory system work with the respiratory system?
The respiratory system takes in oxygen, and the circulatory system carries oxygen throughout the body in the blood.
This body system controls voluntary and involuntary movements within the body
Nervous system
______ carries oxygen-rich blood away from the heart and _______ carries oxygen-poor blood back to the heart
Arteries and Veins
Two systems that work together by transporting white blood cells as they search for pathogens (germs)
Circulatory System and Immune System
Type of cells that transmit electrical impulses throughout the body to generate responses
Nerve cells
This vital organ filters out toxins from our blood
Kidneys
A body system that produces hormones
Endocrine system
The largest organ in the human body
Skin
As a person's environment changes, these 2 body systems that send and receive messages in order to maintain a person's homeostasis
Nervous System and Endocrine System
Name at least 3 parts of the Respiratory System
nasal cavity, oral cavity, epiglottis, trachea, lungs, diaphragm
Two body systems that work together by transporting nutrients to a person's body cells
Digestive System and Circulatory System
