Mix and Match Human Body Systems
MRS GREN
Movement, Respiration, Sensitivity, Growth,
Excretion, Nutrition
Tendon
Tissue that connects muscle to bone
Ligament
Tissue that connects bone to bone
Antagonistic pair
Example: biceps and triceps muscles
Antagonistic pair
Muscles that work together, so that when one
contracts the other relax.
Functions of muscles
Movement, posture, joint stability, heat
production
Hinge joint
Example: knee and elbow
Ball and socket joint
Example: shoulder and hip
Functions of the skeleton
Protection of organs, movement, support,
muscle attachment, breathing, making blood
cells, sound transmission and growth
Bones of the arm
Humerus, radius, ulna, carpals, metacarpals
and phalanges
Bones of the leg
Femur, tibia, fibula, patella, tarsals,
metatarsals, phalanges
Ingestion
Process of getting food into the body
Incisors
Sharp, chisel shaped front teeth for cutting
Canines
Pointed teeth for holding and tearing
Molars
Flat teeth for grinding
Stomach
Part of the digestive system that contains acid
Enamel
Hard substance on the outside of a tooth
Plaque
Film of bacteria that grows over teeth causing
decay
Duodenum (first part of small intestine)
Responsible for most of the chemical
digestion
Sites of excretion
Lungs, skin and kidneys
Excretion
Removal of waste products from blood
Blood cells that carry oxygen
Red blood cells
Blood cells that fight infections
White blood cells
Carried by blood
Oxygen, carbon dioxide, glucose, hormones,
wastes
Blood vessels that take blood to the heart
Veins
Blood vessels that take blood away from the
heart
Arteries
Very small blood vessels
Capillaries
Plasma
Yellowish fluid in blood in which other cells
float
First chamber of the heart that blood enters
from the body
Right atrium
Chamber that blood leaves the heart from to
go to the body
Left ventricle
Blood vessel that leaves the heart to take
blood to the lungs
Pulmonary artery
Blood vessels of the heart
Cardiac arteries
Part of the lung where gas exchange occurs
Alveoli
Tube that carries air from the mouth to the
lungs
Trachea
Gas exchange
The swapping of carbon dioxide for oxygen
Gamete
Sex cell, for example, eggs and sperm
Oestrogen
Hormone produced by the ovaries
Testosterone
Hormone produced by the testes
Zygote
Cell produced when male and female gametes
fuse
Ovulation
Release of an egg from the ovary
Menstruation
Shedding of the blood lining of the uterus
Fallopian tube
Site of fertilisation
Uterus
Place where the embryo develops to a baby
Testes
Make sperm
Epididymis
Stores sperm
Placenta
Also called afterbirth, this helps support the
developing foetus
Umbilical cord
Connections between the baby and the
mother
Male changes at puberty
Pubic and facial hair grow, sex organs
enlarge, voice deepens, bones and muscles
get larger
Female changes at puberty
Pubic hair develops, hips widen, breasts
develop, menstrual cycle starts
Fertilisation
The whereby the sperm and egg fuse
