Are Plants Superman?
This is the product of Photosynthesis that humans (and other animals) use constantly.
Oxygen
This is a product of Cellular Respiration that animals cannot make use of; it is removed from the cells through the circulatory system.
Carbon Dioxide
The Stomach, Mouth, and Intestines are part of this Organ System.
Digestive System
The purpose of this Organ System is to move oxygen and nutrients to the body's cells, and to remove waste from them.
Circulatory System
Walking to your next class is a group effort by your body! These two body systems work together by thinking about where the next class is, and bringing the body to that location.
What are the Nervous and Muscular Systems?
This is the result of Photosynthesis turning Light Energy into Chemical Energy; animals consume this to break it down during Cellular Respiration.
Sugars (Also known as Glucose, Food)
This is the source of chemical energy that is broken down through Cellular Respiration to create energy usable by the cells.
Sugars (also Glucose, Food)
The Brain and Spinal Cord are the major organs in this Organ System
Nervous System
The purpose of this Organ System is to notice changes and control the body to respond to the changes.
Nervous System
Eating a cookie might not be healthy, but it's full of sugars. These two systems interact by absorbing the sugars found within a cookie and then bringing those sugars to the rest of the body.
What are the Digestive and Circulatory Systems?
Plants require this resource to begin the Light Cycle of Photosynthesis; though they get some of it from within, most of this comes from the air around them.
Carbon Dioxide
True or False: Only animals (humans included) undergo Cellular Respiration; photosynthetic organisms do not need Cellular Respiration.
False: Plants also use Cellular Respiration for their energy.
The Arteries, Veins, Capillaries, and the Heart are part of this Organ System.
Circulatory System
This organ system is responsible for breaking down food and absorbing it into the blood.
Digestive System
Jogging is strenuous, exhausting work. These body systems interact by realizing you need more oxygen while jogging, then bringing in more oxygen into the body to compensate.
What are the Nervous and Respiratory systems?
This is the source of energy that is required to start the 'photo' part of Photosynthesis.
Light (usually Sunlight)
This is the site where Cellular Respiration occurs.
At the Cell
Your muscles are part of this Organ System.
Muscular System
This organ system is responsible for keeping the body warm and moving.
Muscular System
Paying attention to your surroundings is useful. These body systems interact by listening to a loud crash, then turning the body to see what caused the crash.
What are the Nervous and Muscular Systems?
True or False: Photosynthesis completely stops when there is no light present.
False: There's a part of the cycle that happens independent of light.
These are the types of cells that require Cellular Respiration to get energy.
All Cells
Your Skin and Hair are part of this Organ System.
Integumentary System
This organ system is responsible for providing structure to the body and producing blood.
Skeletal System
Studying for a test causes the brain to use more energy than normal. These body systems interact by bringing carbon dioxide away from the cells, then removing it from the body entirely.
