What is the role of the excretory system?
What is to remove waste from the body.
100
What is the function of the diaphragm?
contracts and relaxes to allow inhalation and exhalation.( breathing)
100
This type of digestion occurs in the mouth when food is mashed up with teeth.
What is mechanical digestion?
100
This molecule in the blood is delivered to body cells through respiration so they can make more energy during times of more activity.
What is oxygen.
100
This organ system helps remove wastes like sweat, water and urine from the body.
What is the excretory system?
200
If your kidneys are not working right then you are unable able to do what?
filter out waste from your blood
200
These are the structures in your lungs where gases are exchanged.
What are the alveoli?
200
On its way to the stomach, food has to travel from the mouth to this organ.
What is the esophagus?
200
This blood vessel carries deoxygenated (oxygen-poor) blood from your lower body back to your heart.
What is the inferior vena cava?
200
Our respiratory system brings oxygen into the body. How does this help maintain homeostasis.
Oxygen is used by body cells to make energy. (cellular respiration)
300
List 3 body systems that get rid of waste AND the waste they dispose of.
* respiratory-CO2 * excretory-excess water * digestive-undigested food
300
What is the function of the respiratory system?
to bring in oxygen and get rid of carbon dioxide.
300
These tiny structures in the small intestine help absorb nutrients from food.
What are vili?
300
This process occurs in the mitochondria of your body cells to create energy from oxygen and glucose.
What is cellular respiration?
300
Name 3 functions of the skin (integumentary system).
1) Protects the body from germs 2) Maintains body temperature 3) Eliminates waste (water, urea, salt, etc.) 4) Gathers information 5) Produces Vitamin D
400
These are the two (2) ways that the nervous system maintains homeostasis.
What are 1) receives information from the environment and 2) directs your body how to react to stimuli
400
List the pathway air takes through the respiratory system to the blood.
nose --> pharynx --> larynx --> trachea --> bronchi --> bronchioles --> alveoli
400
This process occurs in the large intestine.
What is the absorption of excess water from undigested food?
400
These muscles allow you to move, like when you exercise. Name they type of muscle AND how it works.
What is skeletal muscle? They work in pairs: one contracts while the other relaxes.
400
Describe a scenario where the nervous system and muscular system might work together to maintain homeostasis.
Many answers possible: Ex: The nervous system controls the movements of the muscles, allowing you to move.
500
Describe how our body senses and reacts the world around us using the nervous system using these words: neuron, nerve impulse, brain, spinal cord, stimulus, response.
Many answers possible: Ex: Our bodies respond to stimuli in our environment by using special cells called neurons. These nerve cells transfer nerve impulses to our brain or spinal cord to allow us to react.
500
What is the pathway that oxygen takes upon entering the body once you inhale into your lungs?
Lungs -> Alveoli ->(blood) Heart -> Body Cells
500
Using words and arrows, show how food is converted into energy for your cells. (Think Cellular Respiration) Start it like this: food --> .......--> energy!
food --> (glucose in) blood --> body cells --> cellular respiration --> energy!
500
When you exercise, your body has to move in many different ways. Name the 4 moveable joints and give an example of a body part that uses each type of joint.
pivot: head (turning side to side) gliding: ankle, wrist or vertebrae ball-and-socket: hip or shoulder hinge: elbow, knee, fingers, toes, etc.
500
Describe a scenario when the respiratory system and circulatory system might work together to maintain homeostasis.
Many answers possible: Ex: The respiratory system would use the lungs to bring in oxygen, and the circulatory system carries the oxygen to the cells and the carbon dioxide back to the lungs.
