Body Systems
Brain, spinal cord, nerves.
What is the nervous system?
The powerhouse of the cell.
What is the mitochondria?
Geosphere, Hydrosphere, Atmosphere, and Biosphere.
What are Earth's four major systems?
A group of seven organs that break down food and absorb the nutrients which the body then uses for fuel.
What is the digestive system?
Make an observation and state a question.
What is the first step of the Scientific Method?
Helps in maintaining bodily functions and enabling movement. Allows voluntary (can control) and involuntary (cannot control) movements.
What is the muscular system?
Has a cell wall, chloroplast, and large central vacuole. Has a rectangular shape.
What is a plant cell?
All the parts of the Earth that include living things.
What is the Biosphere?
A group of parts that work together to function or perform a task.
What is a system?
1 - question
2 - research
3 - hypothesis

5 - analyze
6 - conclusion
What is experiment?
The body system that includes these main organs: the heart, blood, and blood vessels (arteries, veins, capillaries).
What is the cardiovascular (circulatory) system?
The organelle that controls what enters and leaves the cell: provides protection and support.
What is the cell membrane?
Rivers, Lakes, Oceans...
What is the Hydrosphere?
A tiny structure within a cell that performs a specific function for that cell.
What is an organelle?
Analyzing all the data you have collected to see if your prediction was correct.
What is the conclusion?
The body system that allows us to take in oxygen and let out carbon dioxide. It helps us breathe.
What is the respiratory system?
The organelle that stores water and nutrients. It is larger in plant cells and smaller in animal cells.
What is a vacuole?
The Earth's climate begins to change and temperature rises. Carbon dioxide starts to pollute our oceans and atmosphere. Glaciers also start to melt and sea levels begin to rise.
What are the effects of global warming?
An organelle in a plant cell that turns energy from the sun into chemical energy for the plant to use.
What is chloroplast?
Information gathered, often numbers, in an experiment.
What is data?
Protects the body from harmful invaders such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, and toxins. White blood cells travel through lymphatic system to attack any threats and to prevent humans from getting sick.
What is the immune system?
A cell that has no nucleus, DNA floats in cytoplasm, generally smaller and simpler.
What is a prokaryotic cell?
Below the groundwater is material such as sand, soil and gravel which allows storage and movement. This area stores a large amount of freshwater.
What is an aquifer?
Dispersion of substances in a gas or liquid.
What is diffusion?
An educated guess or a testable prediction.
What is a hypothesis?
