The Nervous System
8
The Nervous System Receives information about what’s happening
What is its FUNCTION? Receives information about what’s happening inside and outside the body. Directs the way your body responds to this info. Helps maintain homeostasis.
9
The Nervous System Brain Spinal Cord Network of Nerves that
The nervous system is made up of the: Brain Spinal Cord Network of Nerves that branch out to ALL parts of your body
10
A Neuron (Nerve Cell) AXON DENDRITES CELL BODY AXON TIPS Neurons carry information through the nervous system. There are BILLIONS of neurons in your body. They are constantly sending/receiving messages. The message that a neuron carries is a nerve impulse.
11
Direction message travels
A Neuron (Nerve Cell) AXON DENDRITES CELL BODY AXON TIPS Direction message travels AXON – carries the messages down to the AXON TIPS, which sends the message to the next neuron. DENDRITES – receive messages and sends them toward CELL BODY (contains a nucleus).
12
The Synapse An impulse travels down the axon to the axon tips where it either travels to another neuron or to a muscle or gland to carry out a response. The junction where one neuron can transfer an impulse to another structure is called a synapse.
13
The Endocrine System Pituitary gland – in the brain
Hypothalamus gland – in the brain Parathyroid gland – in the neck Thyroid gland – in the neck Thymus gland – in the chest / heart region Pancreas– in the trunk / main body region Adrenal glands – on the top of each kidney Ovaries (girls) and testes (boys)– in the reproductive organs
14
The Endocrine System The Functions of the Endocrine System: The endocrine system produces __________________that control many of the body’s daily activities. The endocrine system also _____________ long-term changes such as ______________ and ______________. chemicals regulates growth development
15
The Endocrine System Made of… The endocrine system is made up of _____________, organs that _______________________ a chemical. Some glands, such as those that produce _________________________ release their chemicals into tiny tubes. The tubes deliver the chemicals to a _______________________ within the body or ________________________________. glands produces or releases saliva and sweat specific location to the skin’s surface
16
The Endocrine System Made of… Hormones turn on, ________________ , speed up, or ________________ the activities of different organs and tissues. You can think of a hormone as a __________________. Hormones are carried throughout the body by ______________________. Therefore, hormones can regulate activities in tissues and organs that are not close to the glands that produce them. turn off slow down chemical messenger the blood
17
The Endocrine System Hormones work how? In contrast to the body’s response to a nerve impulse, hormones usually cause a _________________________________ response. When a hormone enters the bloodstream, it affects ____________ organs but not others. A hormone interacts only with specific _________________ . slower, but longer-lasting some target cells
18
The Endocrine System Negative Feedback… The endocrine system often uses ___________________ to maintain _____________________. Through negative feedback, when the amount of a _____________________ in the blood reaches a certain level, the endocrine system sends signals that _________________ the release of that hormone. negative feedback homeostasis particular hormone STOP
19
Skeletal and Muscular Systems
& Skeletal and Muscular Systems
20
What do they do for us? Our muscles…
hold bones together so we can move, hold our organs in place, help us chew and digest our food, pump our blood, and allow us to blink, smile, walk, laugh, etc.
21
What types of muscles are there?
Muscles can be… Voluntary (you choose to use them) or Involuntary (they work without you thinking about them) And, they can be… Skeletal (attached to bones), Smooth (in your digestive system), or Cardiac (in your heart) Skeletal Voluntary Smooth Involuntary Cardiac
22
What types of muscles are there?
Voluntary Involuntary Skeletal Smooth Cardiac
23
How do muscles work? Muscles can’t push. They only pull (contract) and then relax to return to original length. Muscles often work in pairs, so that they can pull in different or opposite directions. Example: bicep bends the elbow, and tricep extends the elbow.
24
The Muscular System Muscles are organs that can relax or contract to provide the force needed to move your body parts. Tendons are strong tissues that attach muscles to bone.
25
Why do I need tendons? Try This...
Tendons attach muscles to bone helping the body move. Feel your tendon right above your heel in the back of your leg. This is the THICKEST tendon in your body (Achilles Tendon). Try This... TENDON
26
The Skeletal System The skeletal system is made up of all the bones in your body. The adult human skeleton has 206 bones. Babies actually have around 300 bones! As we grow, some small bones join together to form larger bones.
27
What does it do for us? Our skeleton… Gives us shape and support,
Helps us move, Protects our organs, Produces blood cells, and Stores stuff (like calcium and fat) until the body needs it.
28
How are bones connected?
Bones are connected at joints. (LIGAMENTS hold your bones together!) Joints allow bones to move in different ways; for example, your elbow joint and your shoulder joint provide different types of motion Some joints do not allow movement (like in your skull).
29
TYPES of JOINTS 1) HINGE JOINT allows back-and-forth movement (like the hinge on a door). Examples: Knee, Elbow
30
TYPES of JOINTS 2) BALL-AND-SOCKET JOINT allows wide-range of motion. One bone with rounded end fits into a “cup-like” shape on another bone. Examples: Shoulder, Hip
31
TYPES of JOINTS 3) PIVOT JOINT allows one bone to rotate around another. Examples: Neck (can turn your head from side-to-side.) Forearm (can twist side-to- side).
32
TYPES of JOINTS 4) GLIDING JOINT allows one bone to slide over another. Examples: Wrists and Ankles let you bend and flex.
33
Are bones alive? Yes! The skeletal system, like all organ systems, is made of up organs (your bones), which are made up of living cells and tissues. Bones grow and develop, and can heal themselves if you break one!
34
Keeping Your Bones Healthy
Osteoporosis is a disease where bones lose minerals and become weak. Osteoporosis mostly affects the elderly.
35
What’s the function of the reproductive system?
To make sure the species survives… by passing on your genes… when you make babies (more humans)! How does the reproductive system do it? It produces hormones that control how you develop (puberty) It produces sex cells (egg and sperm cells) It transports and sustain these cells The female reproductive system nurtures the developing offspring
36
The Male Reproductive System
Testes produce: Sperm (sex cells) Testosterone (hormone that controls sexual maturation in men) Scrotum: external pouch of skin that holds the testes (keeps them °C cooler)
37
The Male Reproductive System
Sperm mix with fluids from the glands to form semen, which leaves the body through a tube called the urethra in the penis. Urine also leaves through the urethra, but not at the same time!
38
The Female Reproductive System
Ovaries produce: Eggs (sex cell) Estrogen (hormone that controls sexual maturation in women) Fallopian tubes: carry the eggs to the uterus where a fertilized egg would attach to the wall and develop into an embryo/fetus.
39
The Female Reproductive System
Unfertilized eggs break down and leave the uterus through the cervix, then exit through the vagina. The vagina is also called the birth canal (how the baby leaves the mother’s body).
40
What is puberty? What is puberty? When does it happen?
A period of time when your body changes to become sexually mature (able to reproduce). When does it happen? Usually begins ages 8-13 for girls; ages for boys, and can last 5-6 years. What causes puberty? Hormones (chemicals that control your body’s development) produced by your brain and your ovaries/testes cause your body to change. Males: Testosterone Females: Estrogen
41
What happens at puberty?
Physical Changes Body Size and Shape Males get taller, broader shoulders Females develop breasts, wider hips, Body Hair Underarms, pubic area, facial hair (males) Other changes Voice deepens for males Menstrual cycle begins for females Emotional Changes Feeling moody Sexual feelings
42
The Menstrual Cycle “Monthly” cycle of changes in the female reproductive system. How the body prepares for pregnancy.
43
What happens after the egg is fertilized?
The Human Life Cycle What happens after the egg is fertilized? The egg is fertilized in the fallopian tubes. This cell travels for 5 days and divides many times before it enters the uterus. In the uterus, it attaches to the lining and begins to develop. The first 2 weeks.
44
What happens during pregnancy?
Pregnancy lasts 38 weeks after conception (40 weeks after last period). For the first 8 weeks, the developing human is called an embryo. After the 9th week until birth, the embryo is called a fetus. 5 weeks 14 weeks 24 weeks
45
What happens during pregnancy?
In 9 months, the fetus grows from a single cell to a fully formed human baby weighing 7-8 pounds! Amazing transformations happen as the fetus grows - bones and muscles form, the heart begins to beat, eyes and ears start working…. 5 weeks 14 weeks 24 weeks
46
Protecting and Nourishing the Fetus
The Human Life Cycle Protecting and Nourishing the Fetus Inside the uterus, 2 membranes protect and nourish the baby. Amniotic Sac – filled with fluid, it cushions the baby. Placenta – links the mother and fetus. Oxygen & nutrients pass from the mother to baby here. The umbilical cord links the baby to the placenta.
47
What happens during birth?
The birth of a baby has 3 stages: Delivery – the baby is pushed out of the uterus through the vagina and out of the mother’s body. Afterbirth – contractions of the uterus push the placenta out of the uterus. Labor – strong, muscular contractions of the uterus. The cervix enlarges to fit the baby’s head. (lasts 2-20 hours!)
