9. Circulatory System • Is the body’s transportation system that transports blood throughout the body to keep the body functioning propertly

10. Four main Functions • To transport fuel to the body; • To transport wastes to the liver and kidneys to be eliminated; • To transport cells to fight disease; • To transport hormones throughout the body.

11. Organs of the Circulatory System • Heart • Arteries • Veins • Capillaries

15. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels in the body, and can only be seen under microscope. • Capillaries are found extensively in tissue with high metabolic activity that need more oxygen and nutrients (such as muscle, liver, kidney, and nervous system tissue). Tissue with low metabolic activity (such as tendons and ligaments) contain fewer capillaries.

16. Problems in The Circulatory System • Anemia • Leukemia • Hemophilia • Arteriosclerosis • Stroke • Hypertension

17. Respiratory System • The Respiratory System is a group of passages that exchanges in order for the body to function properly. • Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide

19. Organs • Lungs are the main organs • Bronchial Tree - air passages within lung • Alveoli – tiny air sacks; exchange gases with the blood

20. When you breath in and out • Inspiration (inhalation) • Expiration (exhalation) • Oxygen • Carbon dioxide ( a waste product)

21. Problems in the Respiratory System • Common Cold • Pneumonia • Bronchitis • Asthma • Emphysema • Cancer

25. Skeletal System • Is the framework and foundation for the body. • It is the combination of the bones, joints, and connecting tissues.

26. Your body has 206 Bones ! • Your bones must hold you body upright for hours, with no rest. • Even when you sleep, your bones are still providing support for your organs and muscles. • If there are any flaws in the framework of a structure (your bones), you may not notice them, they may be successfully hidden, until the stress of age and gravity begins to expose those flaws.

27. Bones are made up of 3 parts… • First layer: Periosteum, a membrane of the outer skin that is filled with nerves and blood vessels and helps in the formation and repair of bone tissue. • Second layer: Compact Bone, is so hard that surgeons must use a saw to cut through it rather than a knife. • Third layer: Spongy Bone, looks like a honeycomb with thousands of tiny holes which are passageways for nerves and blood vessels. This is the inner area of the bone where the bone marrow exists. Produces blood cells.

28. Your Bones…. • Provide protection • Work with your muscles and joints and are levers to provide you with movement • The fibrous connective tissues are cartilage, joints and ligaments. • Working together, they provide you with the flexibility you need everyday to make your movements fluid and graceful.

31. Problems • Scoliosis: Vertebral column develops an abnormal curvature, so that the hip or shoulder is lower than the other. • Bursitis: Bursae are commonly located between the skin and the bone. They help in movement of the tendons that pass over these areas. Bursitis is the inflammation of the bursa and is usually due to excessive stress on the joint. Tennis elbow, knee and shoulders.

32. Problems • Osteoporosis: A loss of bone tissue. The spaces and canals with the bones become filled with soft tissue. As a result, the bones become weaker and are more easily fractured and broken. • This disease often affects women after menopause, but elderly men can also be affected. Calcium supplements and estrogen replacement after menopause may help to slow down this disease in women.

33. Fractures: 6 different kinds • Transverse Fracture • Oblique Fracture • Spiral Fracture • Comminuted Fracture • Impacted Fracture • Complete Fracture

35. Dislocation: occurs when the end of a bone is pushed out of its joint. • Sprain: result of stretching or tearing the ligaments at a joint.

36. Muscular System • Consists of a group of tissues that makes the body move. • Nearly half of our body weight is made up of muscles. • Your body has over 600 major muscles that need energy from food to produce all the movements your body makes.

38. Three Types of Muscles • Skeletal Muscle • Smooth Muscle • Cardiac Muscle

39. Muscle Tissue • Voluntary (you control it) • Involuntary (you do not control its Movement) Muscles either contract or shorten, and they extend, or lengthen.

40. Problems • Strain • Cramp • Bruise • Pulled or torn • Muscular fatigue

41. Digestive System • The organs that take food and break it down into a chemical form that can be absorbed by the body. • The process by which food is broken down is called digestion.

42. Digestive System • Consists of a long muscular tube called the alimentary canal. • Measures about 30 feet in length and along the way it is designed to perform specific purposes.

43. Other organs that work with the Digestive System • Salivary glands • Pancreas • Gallbladder • Liver

45. Digestion Begins …pg 40 • Mouth • Esophagus • Stomach • Small Intestine: 18–23 feet long, 1.5” wide

47. Good and Bad Bacteria • There is abundance of bacteria in your digestive tract. • It is important to have a nutrition rich diet to help your intestines stay healthy and promote good absorption of the nutrients that that fuel your body.

48. What happens when you take an antibiotic?

49. Problems • Indigestion and heartburn • Nausea and vomiting • Ulcers • Gallstones • Cirrhosis of the Liver • Halitosis or bad breath

50. The Excretory System • Is a system that connects to the digestive system. • It starts at the mouth and continues down the esophagus, after that it travels down to the large chamber of the liver and stomach. • It travels past the pancreas and the gall bladder. • You swiftly follow the path of the small intestine and finally goes to the large intestine and finally to the rectum. • The kidneys, main organs are filters. There are two of them located near the spine in the middle of the back. The main organs of the excretory system are the bladder, kidneys, lungs, liver and skin.
