  is made up of bone and cartilage. Bones make up
  the hard part of your skeleton. All vertebrates

  day, they will become stronger!

The Skeletal System (Part 2)

• The skeletal system is a series of bones. These
  bones protect our organs heart, lungs, etc. All
  of those bones hold up your whole entire body! If
  you didnt have bones, you would flop around like
  a jelly fish. When you break bones, It takes a
  long time to heal. Try not to break bones. Your
  skeleton is very important.

Muscles of the Body

• Your muscles are what make you strong! Muscles
  are what allow you to bend your arms and legs.
  They can expand and contract. If you didnt have
  muscles, your heart wouldnt beat because muscles
  keep your heart beating. Muscles are essential to
  everyday life.
• HEALTHY HINTS!!! EXERSIZE YOUR MUSCLES EVERY DAY
  AND YOUR MUSCLES WILL BE STRONGER!

Muscles of the Body (Part 2)

• Muscles hold your head up, that is a VERY
  important job. There are about 640 skeletal
  muscles in the human body. Some of your muscles
  act on their own, like your heart. While others,
  you control. Thousands of rubber band like fibers
  make them up. http//www.innerbody.com/image/musfo

The Skin (Part 2)
Your skin has three layers the epidermis, the
dermis, and the subcutaneous layer. The epidermis
Is translucent and has no blood vessels. The
dermis nourishes the epidermis and contains hair
glands. it also holds sweat glands and blood
vessels. The subcutaneous layer is an energy
reserve for the body and it stores fat.

The Nervous System

• The nervous system connects the brain to the
  spinal cord. This takes messages from your brain
  to all of the rest of your body and tells them
  when to move. Neurons send signals to other
  cells, that is how they know how to move. Neurons
  travel along axons.

9
The Nervous System (part 2)
The nervous system is made up of your brain,
spinal cord, and a network of nerves that go
through your whole entire body. It controls your
body. Neurons carry messages to and from
different parts of your body using a type of
electricity! Neurons are shaped like flat
stars! Healthy Hints!!!!! To calm your nerves,
take a deep breath!

The Digestive System

• Your digestive system is an essential part to
  every day life. When you eat, it turns the food
  into mush. This helps your body because when the
  food goes on to your stomach, it cant handle big
  chunks of food.
• Healthy Hints!!!!!!!!
• Try to eat fruit often so you dont get
  constipated

The Digestive System (Part 2)

• Your digestive system is made up of the digestive
  tract. The digestive tract is a series of hollow
  organs. These organs are joined to a hollow tube
  that goes from the mouth to the anus. The organs
  that make up the digestive tract are the mouth,
  esophagus, stomach, and the small intestine. The
  digestive tract has a layer of smooth muscle that
  helps break down food.

The Circulatory System
You cant live without your circulatory system.
It pumps blood through your body and that is very
needed. Your heart is behind all of that pumping.
There are arteries and veins that go to your body
from your heart and from your heart to your body.
The arteries carry blood with oxygen and the
veins carry blood without oxygen. You wouldnt be
alive without your circulatory system. Healthy
Hints!!!!!!! If you eat junk food, your arteries
will get blocked and you could have a stroke.

13
The Circulatory System (Part 2)

• Your circulatory system is made up of blood
  vessels and the muscles that help control the
  blood flow around your body. The main parts of it
  are heart, veins, capillaries, and arteries. The
  blood leaves the heart and goes to the aorta.
  When the blood leaves the aorta, it is full of
  oxygen. The oxygen blood travels through your
  body. When it comes back to the heart, it drops
  off carbon dioxide and picks up oxygen from your
  lungs.

The Respiratory System

• Your respiratory system is how you breathe! When
  you breathe in air through your mouth or nose it
  goes to your lungs and puts oxygen in your blood.
  Your blood needs oxygen, as you read in The
  Circulatory System. Your life would be very bad
  if you didnt have your respiratory system.

15
The Respiratory System (Part2)

• We breathe to get rid of carbon dioxide and to
  take in oxygen. The oxygen goes to your blood
  cells. The respiratory system includes airways,
  lungs, and respiratory muscles. Without your
  respiratory system, you wouldnt be able to talk!

• Healthy Hints!!!!! Dont put anything in or near
  your mouth that is not food because you could
  inhale it and choke.

16
The Heart

• Your heart is very important. It keeps the blood
  pumping through your body. It sends blood without
  oxygen to your lungs and blood with oxygen to the
  rest of your heart.
• Healthy Hints!!!!!! Keep active so you dont have
  a heart attack.

17
The Heart (Part2)

• Your heart is a muscle that pumps blood through
  your body using steady contractions. If it is
  healthy, it will beat approximately 72 times per
  minute. The main parts of your heart are the left
  ventricle, right ventricle, left atrium, right
  atrium, and the pulmonary artery.
