amoeba sisters video recap: the eleven human body systems
- remember that your body is made up of millions of cells! cells work together and perform various functions depending on their cell type. it is important to understand that cells are a part of an organisms levels of organization. fill in the following chart and draw a picture that represents each level.
| level of organization | picture |
|---|---|
| tissue | |
| organ | |
| organ system |
each body system has many functions. in fact, each system has many more functions than what a seven - minute video clip can cover! below is a list of major overall body system functions. in each box, write the name of the body system that best fits the description. the wording is not necessarily identical to the video clip - you may need to think about these!
| 4. major role in gas exchange: | 5. excretes waste material and very important for homeostasis: |
| 6. provides active defense against pathogens: | 7. involved in the mechanical and chemical breakdown of food: |
| 8. allows for movement: | 9. provides ability to reproduce |
| 10. transports gases and nutrients: | 11. supports the body with structure: |
| 12. coordinates involuntary and voluntary responses: |

Brief Explanations
- For the levels of organization: Cells are the basic unit of life. Similar - type cells form tissues. Different tissues combine to make organs, and multiple organs work together to form an organ - system. For the pictures, cells can be drawn as small circles, tissues as a group of connected cells, an organ as a more complex shape representing a body part like the heart, and an organ - system as a group of related organs (e.g., the digestive system with stomach, intestines etc.).
2.
- Protects from water loss and outside environment: Integumentary system (skin, hair, nails) acts as a barrier.
- Major role in hormone production: Endocrine system with glands like thyroid, pituitary etc.
- Major role in gas exchange: Respiratory system (lungs, trachea) for oxygen and carbon - dioxide exchange.
- Excretes waste material and very important for homeostasis: Urinary system (kidneys, bladder) filters waste from blood.
- Provides active defense against pathogens: Immune system with white blood cells etc.
- Involved in the mechanical and chemical breakdown of food: Digestive system (mouth, stomach, intestines).
- Allows for movement: Muscular system (skeletal, smooth, cardiac muscles) and Skeletal system (bones) work together for movement.
- Provides ability to reproduce: Reproductive system (testes in males, ovaries in females).
- Transports gases and nutrients: Circulatory system (heart, blood vessels, blood).
- Supports the body with structure: Skeletal system (bones).
- Coordinates involuntary and voluntary responses: Nervous system (brain, spinal cord, nerves).
