Name: Date Human Body Project Success Criteria I will be successful when I can - identify major systems in the human body (e.g., musculoskeletal system, digestive system, nervous system, circulatory system) and describe their roles and interrelationships - identify interrelationships between body systems (e.g., the respiratory system provides oxygen and removes carbon dioxide for the circulatory system) - describe the basic structure and function of major organs in the respiratory, circulatory, and digestive systems (e.g., we have two lungs; each one is about 25–30 cm long and cone-shaped; the right lung is slightly bigger because it has three lobes and the left lung has only two; our lungs are responsible for gas exchanges) - identify common diseases and the organs and/or body systems that they affect (e.g., epilepsy affects the brain [central nervous system]; appendicitis affects the appendix [digestive system]; asthma and emphysema affect the lungs [respiratory system]) - design and build a model to demonstrate how organs or components of body systems in the human body work and interact with other components (e.g., build a model that shows how muscles, bones, and joints in the human body work together as a system to allow movement of the arms or legs; build a model to show how the lungs and heart work as a system) Not Yet Almost Got it Name: Date The main systems of the human body are as follows: 1. Cardiovascular/Circulatory system: 1. Circulates blood around the body via the heart, arteries and veins, delivering oxygen and nutrients to organs and cells and carrying their waste products away. 2. Digestive system / Excretory system: 1. Mechanical and chemical processes that provide nutrients via the mouth, esophagus, stomach and intestines. 2. Eliminates waste from the body. 3. Endocrine system: 1. Provides chemical communications within the body using hormones. 4. Integumentary system/ Exocrine system: 1. Skin, hair, nails, sweat and other exocrine glands. 5. Lymphatic system / Immune system: 1. The system comprising a network of lymphatic vessels that carry a clear fluid called lymph. 2. Defends the body against disease-causing agents. 6. Muscular system/Skeletal system: 1. Enables the body to move using muscles. 2. Bones supporting the body and its organs. 7. Nervous system: 1. Collects and processes information from the senses via nerves and the brain and tells the muscles to contract to cause physical actions. 8. Renal system / Urinary system: 1. The system where the kidneys filter blood. 9. Reproductive system: 1. The sex organs required for the production of offspring. 10. Respiratory system: 1. The lungs and the trachea that bring air into the body.
