6. Section 1: Body Systems Structure and movement
Your body has a framework covered by skin and muscle
The Skeletal System
Made up of all bones in your body.
Your skeletal system gives shape and support to your body.
Bones
Protect your internal organs.
Made up of living cells
Need nutrients and use energy
Deposited by calcium and phosphorus which makes them hard.

7. Joints The Skin The place where two or more bones come together
It makes it possible for bones to move
The Skin
Largest human body organ
It helps the body in several ways:
First: The skin protects the body
It protects the body from disease-causing organisms.
It has sweat and oil glands that secrete fluids that can slow the growth or kill bacteria.
It has a pigment, or coloring, named melanin that protects it from damage.
Humans have different skin colors due to the different amounts of melanin

8. Second: The skin is a sense organ
Special nerves makes your skin sense hot or cold, and you can feel the sharpness or the smoothness of things.
Third: The skin helps control the body’s temperature
Sweat glands produces sweat that helps cool the body when it’s hot.
When sweat evaporates, from your skin, thermal energy is lost and your skin is cooled.
Fourth: The skin helps provide a nutrient for the body
For instance, vitamin D is formed in your skin when your skin receive ultraviolet light from the sun. This vitamin helps your body absorb calcium from food in your digestive tract.

9. Muscles are attached to bones and help them move.
The Muscular system
Muscle is an organ that can relax, contract, and provide force to move you and your body parts.
Muscles are attached to bones and help them move.
Some muscles are always working and can’t be controlled (Involuntary muscles).
Ex: muscles that help you breath, and your heart muscles.
While some muscles you can choose to move (Voluntary muscles).

10. Digestion and Excretion
Your body supplies you with energy through the digestive system.
Food enters the digestive system through your mouth then the food moves through each organ of your digestive system while being broken down into smaller molecules after, the smaller molecules are absorbed and enter the blood, once in your blood these molecules move into your cells where the food molecules are needed.

11. Organs in the digestive system
The path food travels through the digestive system
In your mouth, food is moistened by saliva and broke down into smaller particles by your teeth.
Food enters the esophagus, a long muscular tube, that moves to your stomach.
When its in your stomach, chemicals breaks down the food.
After the breakdown, food moves into the small intestine.
Small intestine are the longest organ in the digestive system, where most digestion and absorption takes place.
After, undigested food moves into the large intestine.
The remaining undigested food is excreted from the body.
*make them look at the image so they can understand the process foods take in the digestive system. Cool fact: small intestine can be from 15ft to 32ft long.

12. Nutrients Digested Nutrients
Nutrients are substances in food that provide for cell development, growth, and repair.
There are six kinds of nutrients that are available in food:
Proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, vitamins, minerals, and water.
Inorganic nutrients: water and minerals.
Organic nutrients: proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, vitamins, which contain the element carbon.
Digested Nutrients
Proteins are used by the body for replacement and repair of body cells and for growth.
Proteins are found in meats, poultry, eggs, fish, peas, and nuts.
Carbohydrates are the main energy source for your body.
Ex of food that contain carbohydrates: sugar, honey, fruits, vegetables, breads, grains, &cereal.
Lipids or fat provide energy, help your body absorb vitamins, and, when, stored in the tissue, cushion your internal organs.

13. Minerals control many chemical reactions.
Other Nutrients
Vitamins and minerals are nutrients needed in small quantities by your body
The body uses vitamins for growth, regulating body functions, and preventing some diseases
Vitamins are classified in two groups
Water-soluble vitamins, those vitamins which dissolves easily in water and can’t be stored in your body.
Fat-soluble vitamins, which are those that dissolve only in fat, and can be stored in your body.
Minerals control many chemical reactions.
Calcium and phosphorus are two minerals used in the largest amount by the body. It maintains the bone.
Water is important for your body
Cells need water to carry out the chemicals reactions that are needed for you to live.
That’s why you can’t live for more than a few days without water.

14. Other Organ systems of the Excretory system
The Urinary System
Some waste leave your body through the digestive system
Waste produced by cells are removed from the blood by the urinary system through these following steps:
First kidneys, the main organs of the urinary system, filters all the blood in your body and removes excess water, salts, and other wastes from your blood.
After being filtered, wastewater, urine, then passes into the bladder through tubes called ureters.
The bladder holds the urine till it’s excreted.
Urine is carried out the bladder to the outside of the body through another tube, the urethra.
Other Organ systems of the Excretory system
Your body doesn’t only remove waste through the digestive and urinary systems.
The respiratory system removes waste gases like carbon dioxide, and water vapor.
While the skin loses salt and some other wastes.

15. Respiration and Circulation
Your body needs oxygen, a gas found in the air.
The body produces carbon dioxide, which is a waste that has to be removed from the body.
Respiratory System
Respiratory system is made up of structures and organs that help you move oxygen into your body and waste gases out through this process:

16. Air is carried through bronchioles and reaches the alveoli
Respiratory system, continued….
Air is carried through bronchioles and reaches the alveoli
Oxygen leaves alveoli and enters capillaries.
Then it’s carried to every cell in your body by your bloodstream.
Waste gases are carried to your lungs through the blood.
Waste gases leave capillaries and enter alveoli.
Wastes are then removed from your body when you exhale.
When you inhale, which means to breathe in, air enters through the mouth or nose.
Then travels a series of passageways- the pharynx, larynx and trachea.
Bronchi then carry the air into your lungs
The smallest tubes of the bronchi, are called bronchioles and have alveoli (ole- grapelike clusters of air sacs) at each end.
Blood vessels called capillaries surround each alveolus.

17. The circulatory system
All cells in the body need nutrients and oxygen and a way to remove wastes, which is the job of the circulatory system.
Heart pumps out blood, which travels through the arteries, capillaries and veins.
Arteries are blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart
Veins carry blood back to the heart
Capillaries connect arteries and veins

19. Blood
Body’s cell would die without blood because they could not get oxygen and the nutrients they need for life.
It removes wastes from your body cells
It’s a tissue that’s made up of liquid and cells.
Red blood cell- carries oxygen
White blood cells- fight infections and heal wounds
Platelets- helps formation of blood clot, bandage, for cuts and stop bleeding.

20. Type AB --> Type A --> Type O --> Type B -->
Blood transfusion- a person receives donated human blood.
To donate blood to someone, donor and receiver must have the same blood type or the receiver might die.
Type A -->
can donate to blood types A or AB
Can receive blood from types O or A
Type B -->
Can donate to blood types B or AB
Can receive blood from types O or B
Type AB -->
Can donate blood to type AB only!
Can receive blood from all blood types (A, B, AB or O)
Type O -->
Can donate blood to ALL blood types (A, B, AB or O)
Can only receive blood from blood type O

21. Blood types Four major blood types: A, B, AB, O.
All blood types are different due to their antigens - chemical identification tags- on red blood cells.
Type A has A antigens.
Type B has B antigens.
Type AB has AB antigens.
Type O has no antigens.
Each blood cells also have specific antibodies in the liquid part of the blood.
Antibodies are proteins that destroys substances that are not part of your body.
Rh factors are other identification tags of red blood cells.
If the Rh factor is present on the red blood cells, the person has a positive (Rh+) blood.
If the Rh factor is absent, the person has a negative (Rh-) blood.
These identifications make it that not all blood types can be mixed, and that blood types can be given to a certain other blood types.

22. Collects and returns tissue fluid in between cells to the blood.
The lymphatic system
Collects and returns tissue fluid in between cells to the blood.
It has a network of vessels similar to the circulatory system except the movement of fluid depends on the contraction of muscles in the wall of the lymph vessels and skeletal muscles.
Lymphatic vessels are like veins; they have valves that keep the fluid from flowing backward
Lymphatic vessels contain cells called lymphocytes- help defend your body against disease-causing organisms.

23. Immunity
The body has many ways to defend itself against disease-causing organisms.
First-line defenses: the skin, respiratory, digestive, and circulatory systems.
Most diseases can’t get through unbroken skin.
The respiratory system traps the disease with mucus and cilia- hair like structures.
Saliva, mucus, and other chemicals in the digestive system also protects it.
White blood cells in the circulatory system patrol your body to destroy invading disease-causing organisms
Second-line defense: specific immunity, attacks disease-causing organisms that get past the first-line defense.
In specific immunity, the body makes antibodies that can destroy the diseased organisms.
Ex. When you get a cold., the body makes antibodies to fight the cold virus
Antibodies can also be develop to fight off diseases when you receive a vaccination.
Vaccinations can help prevent diseases.

24. Control Systems of the body
Your body needs control systems to make all your body systems work together (nervous and endocrine systems)
Nervous System
Brain, spinal cord, nerves and nerve receptors make up this system.
The basic unit of this system is the neuron (nerve cell).
The neuron has a cell body and branches called dendrites and axons.
Dendrites receive messages from other neurons and send them TO the cell body while axons carry messages AWAY from cell body
Neurons send electrical messages to each other
A reflex is an involuntary, automatic response to a stimulus. Reflexes help protect your body by allowing your body to respond without you having to think about what to do.

25. Control systems continued…
Endocrine System
Chemicals in the endocrine system are called hormones and carry messages throughout the body.
Your body does not respond as quickly to messages from the endocrine system.
Examples of endocrine glands:
thyroid glands that are released directly into the blood stream.
Pineal and pituitary glands found in the brain.
Pineal gland controls your sleep and walking patterns.
Pituitary gland controls growth and reproduction
Pancreas gland controls the amount of sugar in your bloodstream.
Adrenal gland makes hormones that help your body respond in times of emotional or physical stress.
