2. Be the positive. It takes many “put-ups” to cancel a “put-down.”

3. Today HW check while we quiz.
Packet progress…Nervous and Endocrine will be our next systems.
**Based on the performance in class, students need to be held more responsible. We will TEST by the end of the week.
Limited time with the information!

4. The Nervous System

5. 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.

6. 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

7. 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.

8. 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).

9. 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.

10. The Endocrine System Pituitary gland – in the brain
Hypothalamus gland – in the brain
Thyroid gland – in the neck
Thymus gland – in the chest / heart region
Parathyroid gland – in the neck
Pancreas– in the trunk / main body region
Adrenal glands – on the top of each kidney
Ovaries (girls) and sperm (boys)– in the reproductive organs

11. 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

12. 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

13. 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

14. 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

15. 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

16. Skeletal and Muscular Systems
&
Skeletal and Muscular Systems

17. 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.

18. 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.

19. 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).

20. TYPES of JOINTS
1) HINGE JOINT allows back-and-forth movement (like the hinge on a door).
Examples: Knee, Elbow

21. 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

22. 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).

23. TYPES of JOINTS
4) GLIDING JOINT allows one bone to slide over another. Examples: Wrists and Ankles let you bend and flex.

24. 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!

25. What is on the inside of a bone?
Bones contain four main layers:
Outer Membrane: Thin and tough; blood vessels and nerves enter the bone through the membrane.
Compact bone: Hard, dense layer of bone that has small canals carrying blood vessels and nerves.
Canal

26. What is on the inside of a bone?
3. Spongy bone: This layer has many air spaces like a sponge to make the bones lightweight. 4. Marrow: Inside most bones; red marrow makes blood cells and yellow marrow stores fat.

27. Keeping Your Bones Healthy
Diet and exercise are two ways to keep your bones healthy
Eat foods high in calcium and phosphorus, like dairy products, meats, and leafy green vegetables.
Exercise gets your bones used to heavier loads, which makes them stronger.

28. Keeping Your Bones Healthy
Osteoporosis is a disease where bones lose minerals and become weak.
Osteoporosis mostly affects the elderly.

29. 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.

30. 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

31. 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.

32. 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

33. What types of muscles are there?
Voluntary
Involuntary
Skeletal
Smooth
Cardiac

34. 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.

35. How can you STRENGTHEN your muscular system?
EXERCISE EVERYDAY! Exercise makes individual muscle cells grow wider, thicker, and stronger.
EAT foods that are HIGH IN PROTEIN every day – protein helps to build strong muscles.

36. Fun Facts about the Muscular System
You have about 650 muscles in your body. Muscles make up HALF your body weight.
Eye muscles are the busiest muscles in the body. Scientists estimate they may move more than 100,000 times a day!
The largest muscle in the body is the gluteus maximus muscle in the buttocks.
Smiling is easier than frowning. It takes 20 muscles to smile and over 40 to frown.
