Mink Groups
Mink Body Systems Homeostasis: regulation of an organism's internal environment to maintain conditions needed for life regardless of external environment
Neck & Thoracic Cavity
Respiratory System Continuous exchange of gases for the body Increases respirations during exercise to allow more oxygen into blood stream Gets rid of carbon dioxide waste from blood stream
Cardiovascular System Continuous and controlled movement of blood through all systems that carries nutrients and essential materials for life as waste products are removed Pumps at a constant rate to keep blood pressure normal Heart pumps faster to bring more oxygen to muscles when exercising

Abdominal Cavity
Digestive System Breaks down food and absorbs nutrients that can be used by the body Liver releases glucose in between eating meals to keep blood glucose levels constant Pancreas releases hormones to regulate glucose levels in blood Small intestine absorbs nutrients from food specifically glucose for cellular respiration
Excretory System Gets rid of waste Sweat helps to cool body during exercise Kidneys filter blood to remove waste products
Nervous System Homeostasis-controls and regulates other parts of the body Body temperature starts to drop then nervous system increases body temperature Regulates heart rate and respirations
