What is the organelle that protects the cell by being semi permeable 

Cell membrane 

100

What is the main function of the excretory system 

To get waste out of the body 

100

What are the main 3 parts of the nervous system? 

Brain, Spinal Cord, Nerves 

100

What is the main organ in the circulatory system

Heart 

100

What is the function of the resp. system 

CO2 out, O2 in 

200

If I say I am going down a concentration gradient, what type of cell transport would fit this?

Passive! 

200

What is the name of the chemical signals in the endocrine system?

Hormones 

200

The CNS consists of 

Brain, spinal cord 

200

What are the 3 types of blood vessels and what is their job? 

Arteries- take blood to heart 

Vein, take blood away 

Capillaries- connect veins to arteries

200

Explain a connection between the respiratory system and another 

Up to ms. wW 

300

True or false: 

Small charged molecules can pass through the membrane by themselves

False! 
300

What are the 4 organs in the excretory system 

(+100 for each one you can identify what it excretes) 

Skin, Lungs, Liver, Kidneys 

300

What are the 2 different kinds of nerves? What do they do?

Motor- control messages FROM the spinal cord (movement) 

Sensory - sends messages to the spinal cord (sense) 

300

What is the main function of the circulatory system 

To deliver O2 and other nutrients 
300

List the organs in order that air passes through 

trachea, bronchi, lungs, bronchioles, alveoli

400

What is the difference between facilitated diffusion and protein pumps? What is one similarity?

Difference: Protein pumps are active, FD is passive 

Similarity: They both involve proteins in the cell membrane 

400
Why do signals in the endocrine system travel slower than in the nervous system? 

They travel through the blood stream 

400

What actions are considered involuntary? 

Heart beating, digestion, breathing, reflexes

400

List one cell type in blood and what it does 

Up to ms. w 

400

Explain how the diaphragm works 

Up to Ms. W 

500

Why are endocytosis and exocytosis considered active transport?

It takes energy to attach vesicles to the cell membranse

500

Brainstorm how the endocrine and excretory system are connected 

Hormones tell your body when to absorb/ release water / waste

There are glands on the kidneys 

Hormones help signal your body temperature, which could signal you to sweat 

500

What order to signals travel through?

sensory -> sc -> brain -> sc -> motor

500

Explain Gas exchange, including where it happens, and where each gas goes 

Up to Ms. W's discretion

What is Ms. Wheeler's Favorite Movie 

(It is a movie made in the 80's, it is a cult classic, based off a book!) 

The Princess Bride
