Section 1: Body Organization and
Homeostasis
• Think about how many parts of
your body are involved in getting and
eating your lunch
• Your body is always busy and each
part of the body has a specific job to
do
• All parts of your body work together
so smoothly that you don’t even
notice it
• The smooth function of the body is
due to the organization of your body
The levels of organization in the
human body consist of cells,
tissues, organs, and organ
systems
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Cells
• The cell is the basic unit of structure and function in a
living thing
• The human body has about 1 trillion cells
• Cells cannot be seen without a microscope because they
are so small
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Structures of Cells
• Cell Membrane: outside boundary of the cell
• Nucleus: control center that directs the cell’s activities
• Cytoplasm: Jelly-like clear liquid contained in the cell that
contains many structures called organelles
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Functions of Cells
• Cells carry on processes that keep organisms alive
• Ex: Molecules from digested food undergo chemical
reactions that release energy for the body’s activities
• Cells grow and reproduce
• Cells get rid of waste products
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Tissues
• A tissue is a group of similar cells
that perform the same function
• There are 4 basic types of tissues
• Muscle Tissue – contract or
shorten, carries out movement
• Nervous Tissue – carries
electrical messages back and
forth between the brain and other
parts of the body
• Connective Tissue – Provides
support to the body and connects
all its parts (ex: bone, fat, blood)
• Epithelial Tissue – covers
surfaces of your body inside and
out (ex: skin, lining of organs)
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Organs and Organ Systems
Organ: Structure that is composed of different types of tissue
working together to do the same job (ex: heart, lungs, kidneys, skin)
Organ System: Group of organs that work together to perform a
major function (ex: heart is part of the circulatory system)
Bones, Muscles, and Skin - Body Organization and Homeostasis
Organs and Organ Systems
Each organ in your body is part of an organ system, which is
a group of organs that work together to perform a major
function.
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Homeostasis
Homeostasis is the body’s tendency to keep an internal
balance. Homeostasis is the process by which an
organism’s internal environment is kept stable in spite of
changes in the external environment.
Example: Body temperature, blood sugar levels, water levels,
blood pressure, etc.
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Maintaining Homeostasis
Your body has a variety of ways to maintain homeostasis:
 sweat
 shiver
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Stress and Homeostasis
Sometimes things can happen to disrupt homeostasis. As a
result, your heart might beat more rapidly or your breathing
may increase. These reactions of your circulatory or
respiratory systems are signs of stress.
Stress is the reaction of your body to potentially threatening,
challenging or disturbing events.
Adrenaline is a chemical released by your endocrine system
in response to stress. Adrenaline gives you a burst of
energy and prepares your body to take action.
Your body reacts to Stress!!

Section 2: The Skeletal System
• Just like a building you have
a framework called a skeleton
• Your skeleton is made up of
all the bones in your body
(skeletal system)
• You have 206 bones in your
body
Bones, Muscles, and Skin - The Skeletal System
What the Skeletal System Does
Your skeleton has five major
functions. It provides shape and
support, enables you to move,
protects your organs, produces
blood cells, and stores minerals
and other materials until your body
needs them.
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Shape and Support
• Your skeleton determines the
shape in your body
• The backbone (vertebral column)
is the center of your skeleton
• You have 26 small vertebrae that
connect with each other all the way
up your vertebral column
• Like a beaded necklace, the
vertebral column allows your body
to move and bend
• If your backbone was just one
bone, you would not be able to
bend
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Movement and Protection
• Your skeleton allows you to move
• Most bones have muscles attach to allow you to move
• Bones also protect the vital organs in your body
• Ex: the skull protects the brain
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Production and Storage of Substances
• Some of your bones produce substances that your body needs
• The long bones of your arms and legs are like factories that make
all different kinds of cells
• Bones also store minerals like calcium and phosphorous
• When the body needs these minerals, the bones release small
amounts
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Immovable and Movable Joints
• A joint is a place in the body where two
bones come together
• Joints allow bones to move in different
ways
• There are two types of joints in the body
1.
Movable: allows wide range of
movement, held together by
ligaments
• Cartilage is found at the end of
bones and protects the bones from
rubbing together
2.
Immovable: Some joints between
bones allow little to no movement
like the bones of the skull
Bones, Muscles, and Skin - The Skeletal System
Joints of the Skeleton
A joint is a place in the body where two bones come
together. Joints allow bones to move in different ways.

Bones—Strong and Living
Bones are complex living structures that undergo growth and
development.
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Bone Structure
• Sketch the a long bone such as the femur
Compact Bone: beneath the outer layer is a hard
dense layer of the bone called the compact bone.
Small canals run through the compact bone that
carry blood vessels and nerves
Spongy Bone: a layer of bone just inside the
compact bone that is lightweight but strong. Much
of spongy bone is found at the ends of long bones
and contains red bone marrow which produces red
blood cells
Medullary Cavity: carries yellow bone marrow
which stores fat
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Bones Strength
• The structure of bone makes it strong and lightweight
• 20% of a person’s body weight is comprised of bone
• Bones get their strength partly from the minerals like
phosphorous and calcium
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Bone Growth
• Bones are alive because they contain
cells and tissues like blood and nerves
• Bones also form new bone tissue as
you grow
• Sports contribute to the strength of
bones by stimulating new growth in your
bone tissue
• New bone tissue will form after you
have an accident such as breaking a
bone in your body
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Bone Development
• When you were an infant, your skeleton was primarily
cartilage
• Over time, most of the cartilage was replaced with bone
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Taking Care of Your Bones
• A combination of a balanced diet
and regular exercise are important
for a lifetime of healthy bones
1.Diet – A well-balanced diet
includes lots of calcium and
phosphorous to keep your bones
healthy (meats, whole grains, leafy
green veggies, and dairy)
2.Exercise – Plenty of exercise
provides your bones with the
opportunity to stimulate bone
growth (weight bearing exercise)
Bones, Muscles, and Skin
Osteoporosis
• As people grow older, they
lose some of the minerals stored
in their body
• This mineral loss can lead to
osteoporosis
• Osteoporosis is a condition in
which the body’s bones become
weak and break easily (hip, spin,
wrist)
• Osteoporosis is more
common in women than in men
• Regular exercise and a wellbalanced diet can help prevent
osteoporosis

organizer like the one below, ask a what or how question for
each heading. As you read, write answers to your questions.
Question
Answer
What does the skeleton do?
The skeleton provides shape and support, helps
you to move, protects organs, produces blood
cells, and stores minerals and other materials.
Joints can move forward or backward,
in a circle, in a rotating motion, and in a
gliding motion.
How do joints move?
How strong are bones?
Bones can absorb more force without
breaking than granite or concrete.
What can I do to care for my bones?
Eat a well balanced diet and get
plenty of exercise.

Muscles at Work
Because muscle cells can only contract, not extend, skeletal
muscles must work in pairs. While one muscle contracts, the
other muscle in the pair relaxes to its original length.

Previewing Visuals
When you preview, you look ahead at the material to be
read. Preview Figure 15. Then, in a graphic organizer like the
one below, write three questions that you have about the
diagram. As you read, answer your questions.
Types of Muscle
Q. How does skeletal muscle help my body move?
A. Skeletal muscles are attached to the ends of bones and provide the
force to move them.
Q. Where is smooth muscle found?
A. The inside of many internal organs
Q. Why is cardiac muscle considered a special type?
A. It is found only in the heart; it is like smooth muscle because it is
involuntary and like skeletal muscle because it is striated.

Sunscreen Ratings
Reading Graphs:
What does the height of each
bar in the graph represent?
The height of each bar
represents the amount of time
that person can spend in the
sun before burning.

Sunscreen Ratings
Interpreting Data:
How long can person B stay
in the sun without sunscreen
before starting to burn? With
a sunscreen of SPF 4? SPF
15?
20 minutes; 80 minutes; 5
hours

Sunscreen Ratings
Inferring:
Suppose that person C was
planning to attend an all-day
picnic. Which sunscreen
should person C apply? Use
data to support your answer.
Person C would need to use
SPF 15 sunscreen because
SPF 4 would protect the
individual for only four hours.
Bones, Muscles, and Skin - The Skin
Sunscreen Ratings
Calculating:
Which is more effective at
preventing a sunburn–a
sunscreen with SPF 4 or one
with SPF 15? How much more
effective is it? Show your work.
SPF 15 is 3.75 times more
effective at preventing sunburn.
Calculations: 2.5 hours compared
to 40 minutes, or 150 minutes/40
minutes = 3.75; 5 hours compared
to 80 minutes, or 300 minutes/80
minutes = 3.75
Bones, Muscles, and Skin - The Skin
Sunscreen Ratings
Drawing Conclusions:
What does the number in the SPF
rating stand for? (Hint: Note the length
of time each person can stay in the sun
without sunscreen, and compare this value
to the length of time each can stay in the
sun using SPF 4. Then do the same for
SPF 15.)
It stands for the level of protection
against sunburn—the higher the
level, the greater the protection.
SPF 4 means a person can safely
stay four times as long in the sun;
SPF 15—15 times as long.
