How playing football effects the
systems of the human body
Made By: Henry W
Dermal System
When an athlete plays football,
they sweat or perspire . The body
excretes waste materials as the
athlete sweats. Sweat also cools
the body down when it gets
overheated. The dermal system
is the part of the body that is skin
and that covers all of the organs
and protects against infections.
Muscular System
When an athlete is playing football, his or her brain sends a signal to
the skeletal muscles whenever he or she wants to run, jump, tackle,
throw, and catch. Those muscles used are called voluntary muscles.
Skeletal System
A football player uses the bones of his or her skeletal system to
stand, run, balance, tackle, etc… Without the skeletal system,
the body would be a big soft blob. Some bones protect your
internal organs. The skull protects a football players brain when
they are tackled.
Circulatory / Cardiovascular
A football player exercises very hard when playing in a game.
Your heart rate increases to move blood through your body
quicker to bring blood with oxygen to all parts of your body. It
also helps to cool your body.
Respiratory System
Your lungs breath in air and allow our blood to get new oxygen.
A person breaths heavier when you do lots of work or exercise.
When you play football you lungs have to work very hard
because when you run you use up lots of oxygen and they need
to make lots of oxygen to catch up.
Nervous System
Your brain controls many of your body's movements. A football
player is moving many parts of there body at one time. The
brain and nervous system can tell a player to move left , right,
forward, etc... The brain and nervous system also can tell a
players hands to close on the football when it touches there
fingers.
Digestive System
Your body digests food and drinks and turns them into fuel for
the human body which keeps you alive. When a football player
plays they need a lot of energy. Your digestive system works
harder and faster when you exercise. You then need to eat and
drink more than when not exercising. You then produce more
waste!
Excretory System
The more you exercise the more you eat and drink…the more
you eat and drink the more you poop and pee. The excretory
system helps get rid of the left over waste. And it feels good to
just let it all out!
Immune System
The immune system is one of the smartest systems. It keeps
you healthy. It identifies certain viruses, bacteria, fungi and
parasites. It then destroys them and remembers what they
were for next time they try to invade. Football players need to
stay healthy so their immune system is very important.
