Human Body Systems Mini Project Name: _______________ Date: 3/31 Due Date: 4/17 Objectives: * Students will be able to name the human body systems and their functions. * Students will be able to identify the organs and structural parts present in their chosen body system, eg., Circulatory: heart, arteries, veins, and capillaries. * Students will be able to describe the basic structure of the major organs in each system. * Students will enhance their research and presentation skills. Requirements: * Research an assigned body system (research may be completed in same system groups), create a visual aid, and present information to the class. * What to research for your assigned body system: - List and explain the functions of the organ system. - Identify the major organs and their functions. * Visual Aid: - Title. - Outline of body. - Diagram of major organs in anatomically correct locations. - Labels on major organs. - Neat, easy to understand, colorful, creative. The systems are below, along with some of the organs, and basic function. System Major Structures Function Circulatory heart, blood vessels, blood transports nutrients and wastes to and from all body tissues Digestive mouth, esophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, small and large intestines air passages, lungs stores and digests food; absorbs nutrients; eliminates waste Respiratory Muscular & Skeletal Nervous muscles (skeletal, cardiac, smooth) bones brain, spinal cord, nerves, sense organs, receptors carries air into and out of lungs, where gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide) are exchanged provides structure; supports and moves trunk and limbs; moves substances through body provides structure; supports and protects internal organs controls and coordinates body movements and senses; controls consciousness and creativity; helps monitor and maintain other body systems Questions for you to think about as you begin to conduct research on your body system. 1. What does my system do for our body? 2. What are some of the major organs that make up my body system? 3. What is the job of each of these major organs? 4. What does my system look like? Will I draw and label the organs, print graphics from the computer, or cut pictures out of journals? 5. Where did I get my information?
