helps remove carbon dioxide
2. How does air travel to your lungs
a. Air comes into your body through your nose and mouth
b. It then enters your throat (pharynx) to your voice box (larynx)
c. From this point it moves through a pipe called the trachea, or
windpipe
d. The trachea is divided at the end into 2 branches called bronchial
tubes or bronchi

Causes of Body Changes
A. Endocrine system – the body system that directs certain activities, such as
growth and development
1. Endocrine glands – organs that make up the endocrine system,
located at different parts in the body
a. Control the way your body works and produce changes
b. Endocrine glands make hormones – chemical messengers
that help control some of your body’s activities by changing the
way the cells work
1. Testosterone (testis) – growth and function of men’s
bodies
2. Estrogen (ovary) – controls growth and function of a
women’s body
c. Hormones are carried by your blood from the endocrine
glands to your cells
d. Different glands in your body make different hormones
B. Pituitary gland – the kidney bean shaped gland in the endocrine system
that produces growth hormone (makes your body grow)
1. Pituitary gland makes more than growth hormone – it also controls
the thyroid gland, adrenal glands, and the gonads
a. Thyroid gland
- butterfly shaped gland is located in the neck
- controls how fast your cells turn nutrients into energy
- controls how fast nutrients are used for building and
repairing cells
b. Adrenal glands
- lie on top of the kidneys, shaped like triangles
- glands that make many different kinds of hormones that
control how the body uses nutrients
- EX: epinephrine or adrenaline – gives short burst of
energy and strength
c. Gonads
- gonads are reproductive organs that produces
reproductive cells (ovaries produce ovum in women and
testes produce sperm in men)
- when signaled by the pituitary, the gonads start to
produce their own hormones
