Name the system
this system is separated into two categories - central and peripheral
nervous
controls the body and processes information
the brain (cerebrum) or brainstem (cerebellum)
name the two systems that work together to allow for voluntary movement (not nervous system)
skeletal and muscle
this organ has valves and chambers that pumps blood around the body
heart <3
After eating a large meal, enzymes break down food and nutrients enter the bloodstream.
Name one system involved
Digestive, circulatory
This system produces hormones that regulate growth, metabolism, and reproduction.
endocrine
this organ filters waste from the blood and produces urine
kidneys
How do the circulatory system and respiratory system work together?
The lungs bring in oxygen and the blood carries it to cells
the muscle below the lungs that helps you breathe in and out
the diaphragm
You accidentally touch a hot stove and immediately pull your hand away.
Name one system involved
nervous, muscular, integumentary
This system removes nitrogenous wastes from the blood and produces urine.
excretory
nutrient absorption takes place in this organ
small intestine
The nervous system and this system work together to send chemical and electrical messages throughout the body.
endocrine
alveoli
After lifting heavy weights for several weeks, muscles grow stronger because of repeated stress and repair. Oxygen and nutrients were required for this growth.
muscular and circulatory
This system protects the body from pathogens and includes white blood cells and lymph nodes.
lymphatic/immune
uses insulin to regulate blood sugar and secretes digestive enzymes
pancreas
This system works together with the lymphatic system to protect the body against infection.
Hint: it is the "first line of defense"
integumentary
the TYPE of tissue in the heart (there are four types)
muscle tissue (cardiac muscle)
A person is dehydrated, and the kidneys adjust urine concentration to conserve water.
excretory, circulatory
This system produces blood cells, and stores minerals like calcium.
protects the body from pathogens by "training" white blood cells to recognize pathogens
spleen!
List THREE different systems that connect to the circulatory system and WHY!
All of them! (for different reasons)
what is the difference between the pharynx and the larynx?
pharynx: passageway for air and food in the throat
larynx: "voice box" where air passes through to produce sound
During a stressful event, adrenaline increases heart rate, breathing rate, and blood flow to muscles.
endocrine, circulatory, respiration
