Objective: 1)I will be able to list the 10 basic body systems. 2)I will understand the basic components of each of the systems. Essential Question: 1. Permission Forms due Monday, Feb. 23 – 50 points!!!

 Must have a form from EACH and EVERY student!  DUE by Monday, February 23 rd  WORTH 50 points  If you do not return a permission form or your parents do not wish for you to participate in the program, you will have an alternate assignment and will not be allowed to stay in the classroom.  The program dates are Feb 25 th – March 6 th

 4 = 10  3 = 8-9  2 = 6-7  1 = 4-5  0 = 3 or less

 The system that removes harmful organisms from the blood and destroys pathogens is the IMMUNE SYSTEM.

T-CELLS are white blood cells that destroy pathogens

A PATHOGEN is a germ that can cause a disease

Pathogens are destroyed in structures called LYMPH NODES

LYMPH is the fluid that transports pathogens to a lymph nodes

The system that breaks down food into nutrients that can be used by the body is the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM

Food is prepared for elimination in the LARGE INTESTINE

Bile, which helps to break down fats, is secreted into the small intestine from the LIVER

Food moves to the stomach through the ESOPHAGUS

The SMALL INTESTINE is where the greatest amount of nutrient absorption takes place

The system that carries messages to and from the brain and spinal cord throughout the body is the NERVOUS SYSTEM

The SPINAL CORD is the column of nerve cells extending downward from the brain

A SENSORY NEURON sends messages from the nerve endings to the brain

A MOTOR NEURON sends messages from the brain to the various parts of the body

The BRAIN is the mass of nerve tissue that acts as the control center for the body

The system that is composed of a group of glands that secrete hormones is the ENDOCRINE SYSTEM

The THYROID GLAND is the gland that has the greatest effect on your metabolism

The PITUITARY GLAND is known as the master gland because it controls the functions of the other systems.

The hormone that controls your blood sugar is called INSULIN.

The ADRENAL GLANDS secrete a hormone that prepares your body to react in times of emergency or stress.

The system that serves as a support framework and protects vital organs is the SKELETAL SYSTEM.

CARTILAGE is soft connective tissue on the end of some bones.

Bones are connected to each other by LIGAMENTS.

PERIOSTEUM is the name of the layer of tissue on the outside of bones.

On the inside of most bones is BONE MARROW.

The system that removes liquid waste and maintains the body’s water balance is the URINARY SYSTEM.

The kidneys are connected to the bladder by the URETERS.

Urine exits the body through the URETHRA.

The BLADDER is the muscular sac that stores urine.

The KIDNEYS are the organs that filter blood and excrete waste products.

The CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM transports nutrients, gases, hormones, and cellular waste products.

The VEINS are blood vessels that take blood lacking in oxygen back to the heart.

Blood vessels that take oxygen-rich blood away from the heart are called ARTERIES.

The smallest blood vessels where the gas exchange takes place are called the CAPILLARIES.

The AORTA is the largest artery.

The system that produces motion and maintains posture is the MUSCULAR SYSTEM.

Specialized muscle tissue found only in the heart is CARDIAC TISSUE.

VOLUNTARY MUSCLES are the muscles of the arms and legs (skeletal muscle)

Muscles are attached to bones by TENDONS.

INVOLUNTARY MUSCLES are the muscles around your stomach and other internal organs. (smooth muscle)

The system that provides all body cells with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide that cells produce as waste is the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM.

Inside the lungs, the bronchi branch to form the BRONCHIOLES

The ALVEOLI are microscopic air sacs where the gas exchange takes place.

The protective flap that closes when you swallow is called the EPIGLOTTIS.

Air moves to the lungs through the TRACHEA.

The system that covers and protects the body is the INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM.

The glands that aid in getting rid of wastes, such as salt, and help to cool the body are the SWEAT GLANDS.

Your hair and nails are made up of a tough protein called KERATIN.

SUBACEOUS GLANDS secrete an oil called sebum.

The EPIDERMIS is the outer layer of skin.

How to keep the CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM healthy.  reduce amount of fat in diet  reduce the amount of salt in your diet  exercise regularly to strengthen your heart muscles  avoid tobacco  maintain healthful weight  practice stress-management

How to keep the NERVOUS SYSTEM healthy.  wear helmet  avoid diving into shallow water  use seatbelt  follow directions for medications  avoid alcohol or drugs that affect the brain  follow directions for using household products containing chemicals

How to keep the IMMUNE SYSTEM healthy.  choose foods high in protein and vitamin B  keep accurate records of immunizations  get plenty of sleep  exercise to keep bones dense

How to keep the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM healthy.  do not smoke  avoid secondhand smoke  to not inhale harmful drugs  avoid polluted air  exercise regularly  avoid inhaling chemicals  seek medical help for respiratory infections

How to keep the SKELETAL SYSTEM healthy.  Choose foods rich in calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D  Exercise to strengthen joints  Wear protective equipment/shoes  Sit, stand, walk with correct posture

How to keep the MUSCLUAR SYSTEM healthy.  discontinue exercise if you have an injury  warm-up and stretch before exercise  exercise different muscle groups  maintain your desirable weight  bend at the knees when lifting heavy objects  select foods and beverages containing carbohydrates and protein  sleep on a firm mattress

How to keep the ENDOCRINE SYSTEM healthy.  Have regular medical check-ups  Perform testicular self-examinations each month  Keep track of length and dates of menstrual cycle

How to keep the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM healthy.  Choose fiber rich foods  Chew slowly and enjoy your food  Drink 6-8 8oz. glasses of water each day

How to keep the INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM healthy.  Wear sunscreen  Examine skin monthly for changes  Follow directions when using make-up  Shower/bathe daily  Eat foods with Vitamin A  Seek proper care for skin rashes  Wash hair regularly  Treat dandruff with appropriate products

How to keep the URINARY SYSTEM healthy.  Drink 6-8 8oz glasses of water each day  Maintain a healthful blood pressure because high blood pressure damages kidneys
