How are cells organized?
ORGANISM (BODY) Complex living things are organized into 5 levels. Cells carry on the processes that keep us alive. Examples: Red Blood Cells Muscle Cells Skin Cells ORGAN SYSTEM ORGANS TISSUES CELLS
5
Organs are organized into ORGAN SYSTEMS!
An ORGAN SYSTEM is a group of organs that work together to perform a major job. Examples: Circulatory System Digestive System Skeletal System ORGAN SYSTEM ORGANS TISSUES CELLS

What is HOMEOSTASIS? HOMEOSTASIS is how your body maintains an INTERNAL BALANCE. It keeps your body STABLE in spite of changes OUTSIDE YOUR BODY.

The Digestive System The digestive system has 3 main functions:
It breaks down food into particles that the body can use. It absorbs nutrients into the blood. It eliminates waste from the body. Mouth Esophagus
9
The Digestive System Digestion can happen in two ways: Mechanical digestion: foods are physically broken down into smaller parts (like by teeth). Chemical digestion: Chemicals called ENZYMES break foods into their smaller “building blocks” (for example, starch gets broken down into sugar). Mouth Esophagus
10
The Digestive System MOUTH: your teeth break down food into smaller pieces (mechanical digestion). Saliva has enzymes that start chemical digestion. ESOPHAGUS: smooth muscles push food down to the stomach (peristalsis). Mouth Esophagus
11
The Digestive System Most digestion happens in the Stomach:
Mechanical digestion occurs when the stomach muscles churn the food. Chemical digestion happens when stomach acid breaks down food. Mouth Esophagus Stomach
12
The Digestive System Liver, gallbladder and pancreas: produces & stores chemicals (enzymes) that help digest food in the small intestine. Mouth Esophagus Stomach Liver Gallbladder Pancreas
13
The Digestive System Small intestine: completes chemical digestion and absorbs nutrients for the body. The nutrients pass through the villi into blood vessels. Large intestine: water is reabsorbed by the body. Rectum: compresses waste into a solid form. Mouth Esophagus Liver Stomach Gallbladder Pancreas Small intestine Large intestine Rectum
