REVIEW FOR SYSTEMS OF THE BODY
Systems of the Body : Match each system of the body with the definition. Then give an example of an organ
that can be found in each system.
Ex: Respiratory __E__ Example: The Lungs
E. Gets rid of CO2 and gets O2
A. Protects vital organs of the body
B. Breaks down food for the body to use.
C. Allows body to move.
D. Transportation Highway of the body.
1)
Digestive___B__ Example: Mouth, Esophagus, Stomach, Small/Large intestines, Rectum, Anus
2) Circulatory__D___ Example: Heart, Lungs, Blood vessels (Arteries, Veins, Capillaries), Blood
3)
Skeletal __A___
Example: Joints, Cartilage, Bones (cranium-skull, femur-leg)
4)
Muscular ___C__
Example: Skeletal (biceps), Smooth (internal organs), and Cardiac (heart)
Levels of Organization: Organs, Different tissues, Tissues, Organ System, Organism,
A
5) Organelles
M O
C T O O O P C
= “ Organs” of the cell
6) Tissues
_= a group of similar cells that perform the same function; 4 types.
7) Organs
= group of different types of tissues with a specific job.
8) Organ Systems
= group of organs that work together to perform a specific job.
9) Organisms
= a single living thing that can be made of many organ systems; a single species.
10. Ligaments attaches bone to bone.
11.Tendons
attaches muscle to bone.
Circulatory System Facts
12) What path does blood take through the body? Body
Rt Atrium
Rt Ventricle
Lungs
Aorta
Left ventricle
13. In the lungs, CO2 is taken out of the blood and O2 is taken up into the
blood.
14. Deoxygenated blood is: Blood that contains low levels of oxygen in it.
Left Atrium
15. Blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart. Arteries
16. The smallest blood vessels in the body: Capillaries
17. Label all parts of the heart.
RIGHT
LEFT
Aorta
Valve
Left Atrium
Right Atrium
Left Ventricle
Right Ventricle
Septum
18. The main function of the circulatory system is to take nutrients, oxygen to the cell and take waste
away.
19. Which body systems gets rid of wastes? Excretory, respiratory, integumentary
20. Digestion of food starts in the mouth and what type of food is it and what is it broken down into
Starch into sugar.
21. Most digestion occurs in the Small intestines
22. The tube that connects your mouth and stomach is called the:
Esophagus
23. The liver produces a substance that breaks down fat with a substance called: bile
24. Describe how the respiratory and cardiovascular systems work together to supply oxygen and
remove carbon dioxide. Cardiovascular system is the highway that takes the oxygen to the cells and picks up the
waste of carbon dioxide to take back to the lungs to be exhaled out of the body.
25. How do alveoli and capillaries help to get oxygen into your bloodstream and carbon dioxide out of
your bloodstream? Each alveoli is surrounded with capillaries that exchange gases through the
thin walls of both the alveoli and the capillaries.
26. Name 4 types of joints and tell where they can be found on the body.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Hinge-fingers, elbow, knee
Gliding-spine, wrist ankle
Saddle- thumb
Fixed-cranium(skull)
Pivot-neck, forearm
Ball and socket- shoulder, hip
27. What is the purpose of the nervous system? To transport impulses for the sense of touch, movement and
involuntary movement of organs of the body.
28. There are 2 types of nerves and give an example of the action and tell the type of control that they
will each have.
a.
b.
Autonomic nervous system- where the nerve impulse is involuntary which allows the body to function independently
Somatic nervous system- where the nerve impulse is voluntary which controls the motor neuron pathways that moves
skeletal muscles
29. What is the largest system of the body and what are 2 of the 4 functions?
Integumentary
1. Protection 2. Sensory 3. Homeostasis 4. excretion
30. Name the 4 organs of the excretory system.
1.
2.
3.
4.
Lungs- removal of excess carbon dioxide
Liver- produces urea and uric acid as a by-product fo the breakdown of proteins
Skin-removal of excess water, salt, urea and uric acid
Urinary System-kidneys filter the blood to form urine, which is excess water, salt, urea and urea and uric acid
31. What are the main organs of the urinary system that eliminate urea, excess water, and
other materials from the body?
1. Kidney-filters the blood
2. Ureters-tubes from each of the kidneys to lead into the urinary bladder
3. Urinary Bladder- storage sack for urine it is eliminate from the body.
4. Urethra-Tube that leads from the bladder out the body
32. Label the following parts of the digestive system.
Large intestines
Small intestines
Name 4 organs of the endocrine systems and describe their function.
Pituitary gland-Regulates body
processes including growth, blood
pressure, and water balance.
Controls the activities of other
endocrine systenm
Thyroid-Controls the release of
energy from food molecules during
respiration in body cells
In addition to the role in digestion, the pancreas
produces two hormone, insulin and glucagon.
These two hormones, control the level of the
simple sugar glucose in the bloodl
Pineal gland-Causes Feeling of Sleepiness,
Converts Nervous System Signals to
Endocrine Signals, Regulates Endocrine
Functions, and Secretes the Hormone
Melatonin
Thymus gland helps the cells in
the immune system to develop.
Ovaries and Testes-The reproductive glands are the main source of sex
hormones. In males most important harmone is testosterone. These
hormones affect many male characteristics. In females the harmones
are estrogen and progesterone as well as eggs. These hormones control
the development of female characteristics and are in volved in
reproductive functions
