| Questão | Responda |
| Functions of Skeletal System (4) | 1. Movement 2. Support + Protection for muscles + organs 3. Reservoir of calcium in bones 4. Production of red blood cells in bone marrow |
| Components of Skeletal System (4) | 1. Bones 2. Cartilage (connective tissue at end of bones - protects) 3. Ligaments (elastic structures connecting bones - allow movement). 4. Tendons (connect bone to muscles) |
| Functions of Muscular System (5) | 1. Generate force for movement of bones 2. Breathing 3. Posture 4. Facial Expression 5. Temperature Regulation |
| Components of Muscular System (2) | 1. Skeletal Muscles - connects nervous system to skeletal system + often work in pairs e.g. bicep + tricep 2. Tendons - transmit force from muscle to bone |
| Function of Endocrine System (1) | Secretion of hormones within the body for control + coordination of body systems |
| Components of Endocrine System (8) | 1. Hypothalamus 2. Pituitary Gland 3. Pineal Gland 4. Thyroid + Parathyroid Glands 5. Thymus 6. Adrenal Glands 7. Pancreas 8. Gonads |
| Functions of Digestive System (3) | 1. Absorption of water + ions 2. Break down of eaten materials into nutrient molecules 3. Elimination of undigested residue |
| Components of Digestive System (7) | 1. Mouth 2. Pharynx 3. Oesophagus 4. Stomach 5. Small Intestine 6. Large Intestine 7. Anus |
| Accessory Organs of Digestive System (4) | 1. Salivary Glands 2. Pancreas 3. Liver 4. Gall Bladder |
| Function of Respiratory System (1) | Entry + exit of air allowing the body to obtain oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide |
| Components of Respiratory System (5) | 1. Nose/Mouth 2. Pharynx 3. Larynx 4. Trachea 5. Lungs - bronchi + bronchiole trees |
| Functions of Cardiovascular System (3) | 1. Transport of oxygen, nutrients, ions, proteins, hormones + other signalling molecules. 2. Transport of waste products including carbon dioxide. 3. Maintenance of fluid volume, pH + temperature through homeostasis. |
| Components of Cardiovascular System (3) | 1. Blood 2. Heart 3. Vessels of the circulatory system (capillaries, veins + arteries) |
| Function of Nervous System (1) | Transmission of signals to different parts of body to coordinate function |
| Central Nervous System (CNS) | Brain + Spinal cord Processes incoming information + initiates a response |
| Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) | Cranial nerves + Spinal nerves Carries sensory information to the CNS + motor output from the CNS to initiate a response |
| 2 types of response from the Nervous System | 1. Somatic = voluntary detection + movement 2. Autonomic = Involuntary - monitors and regulates changes in the body's internal environment |
