Levels of Organization
The basic unit of life
What is cells?
The largest organ of the body
What is the skin?
The way muscles move bones
What is muscles pull on bones to move the body?
Nervous system and endocrine system communication
What is electrical signals?
Skin responding to touch
What is the nerves beneath the skin allow us to feel the world around us, send signals to the nervous system, and then respond?
The level of organization that comes after cells
What is tissues?
The main functions for the integumentary system
What is protect the body, maintaining body temperature, eliminate waste, gather information about the environment, and produce vitamin D?
Type of joint that has the widest range of motion
What is a ball and socket joint?
The role of the hypothalamus in both systems
What is to regulate body temperature through messages being sent by the nervous system and hormones released by the gland?
The role sensory receptors (think sensory organs/nerves) play in the integumentary system
What is receives information from the outside world, so the nervous system knows how to respond?
Name one organ system we have talked about so far
What is the muscular system, skeletal system, circulatory system, respiratory system, integumentary system, nervous system, or endocrine system?
The skin protecting the body
What is the outermost layer of the body and is the first line of defense to the outside world?
The role of tendons
What is to attach muscles to bones?
Emotions affect on hormone
What is mood determines the signals being sent out to the glands and what hormones are released?
The body responds to pain
What is electrical signals sending messages to the nervous system, then back to the area of pain to cause a specific response?
The highest level of organization
What is organism?
The role of sweat glands
What is to eliminate waste?
The skeletal system is affected when muscles contract during exercise
What is muscles contract and pull on the bones to move the body?
A body response that involves both the endocrine and nervous systems
What is fight, flight, or freeze response?
The importance of skin sensations (think the ability to touch/feel)
What is to receive information from the outside world to better protect the body?
The level of organization that makes up tissues
What is cells?
The integumentary system regulating body temperature
What is the blood vessels in the body dilate or constrict and the formation of goose bumps or production of sweat?
Muscles working in pairs
What is one muscle contracts to move the extremity one way, then the other contracts to move the extremity the other direction?
Stress affecting the body through these systems
What is the nervous system sends signals to the adrenal glands to release adrenaline?
The integumentary system aids in the perception of temperature
What is feels the temperature outside the body, sends signals to the nervous system, and receives signals to respond appropriately (think formation of goosebumps or sweating)
