Daily TAKS ConnectionFunctions of Systems in
Organisms

• BIO(10) The student knows that, at all levels of
  nature, living systems are found within other
  living systems, each with its own boundary and
  limits. The student is expected to
• (A) Interpret the functions of systems in
  organisms including circulatory,
  digestive, nervous, endocrine,
  reproductive, integumentary, skeletal,
  respiratory, muscular, excretory, and
  immune.
• (B) Compare the interrelationships of organ
  systems to each other and to the body as a whole.

Urinary System Notes

• Record and if applicable label the following
  notes under each flap

Urinary System Rids the body of liquid waste
kidney
ureter
Urinary bladder
Urethra
5
Nervous System Notes

• Record and if applicable label the following
  notes under each flap

Neuron

• Nervous System
• Responds to stimuli to maintain homeostasis

Synapse
Dendrite
Axon
6
Muscular System Notes

• Record and if applicable label the following
  notes under each flap

Bicep- flexes the arm (moves arm up)

• Muscle Skeletal System
• Provides movement and extension of limbs
• Bones have red marrow which produces red blood
  cells

Tricep- extends the arm
7
Respiratory System Notes

• Record and if applicable label the following
  notes under each flap

• Respiratory System
• Intake of Oxygen (O2) and gets rid of CO2 as the
  body maintains homeostasis through metabolism

8
Endocrine System Notes

• Record and if applicable label the following
  notes under each flap

• Endocrine System
• Hormones
• Glands
• Fight/Flight Response

9
Immune System Notes

• Record and if applicable label the following
  notes under each flap

• Immune System
• Protects the body, often with T-cells (White
  Blood Cells)
• Helps rid the body of viruses, bacteria, and
  other pathogens

10
Digestive System Notes

• Record and if applicable label the following
  notes under each flap

• Digestive System
• Contains enzymes which break down food
• Contains small intestine for absorption of
  nutrients

11
Circulatory System Notes

• Record and if applicable label the following
  notes under each flap

• Circulatory System
• Delivers nutrients to all parts of the body
• Transports red blood cells to body which has the
  protein hemoglobin to carry oxygen (O2)

12
Reproductive System Notes

• Record and if applicable label the following
  notes under each flap

• Reproductive System
• Allows for production of offspring sexual-
  varied offspring asexual- identical to parent

Star notes organs involved in sexual reproduction
13
On the backside of the foldable indicate which
interaction of systems are involved in each of
the pictured scenarios

• Systems Activated muscular, respiratory,
  endocrine
• Systems Suppressed Digestive, urinary,
  reproductive

• Excretory system retains fluids
• Vasodilatation to release excess heat
• Systems Activated excretory, muscular,
  integumentary

• Muscular contraction to chew and push food down
  GI tract.
• Systems Activated Digestion, Excretory,
  Circulatory

• Hormones can trigger asthma attacks
• Systems Activated Respiratory Endocrine
