The body is made up of many
bones and muscles. This is a
presentation about them.

The Heart
Healthy Hint
Keep your body healthy
by eating right.
The heart pumps blood throughout
the body. It pumps for the rest of
your life. It beats at about 72 beats
per minute. In a average of 66 year
life span it beats 2.5 billion times.
Without your heart you would die.

The heart is a giant muscle in our bodies.
It allows us to have our blood to go
through our bodies. Most of the time we
don’t even know this is happening. It
occurs nonstop. The heart never rests.

The Skeletal System
The Mandible
The mandible
The mandible is the largest and strongest
bone in your face. It serves for the reception
of your lower of your lower teeth. The 2 parts
of the mandible are very important.
The mandible can also be called
the jawbone. It holds your lower
teeth in place. There are 2 parts
of the mandible the lower and
upper mandible. This allows you
to open and close your mouth.
The upper mandible is
functionally equivalent to the
human maxilla, but mainly
consists of the premaxillary
bones.

Drink milk to keep your
bones filled with calcium
The Skeleton System
The Cranium
The skull is a bony structure. The skull supports the face and also protects the head against a possible injury.
The skull can be divided into two parts: the cranium and the mandible. A skull that doesn’t have a mandible is
only a cranium. Those animals having skulls are called craniates.Functions of the skull include protection of
the brain, fixing the distance between the eyes to allow stereoscopic vision, and fixing the position of the ears
to help the brain use auditory cues to judge direction and distance of sounds.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craniu
The cranium protects the brain it is like a
shell. The cranium is made up of 8 bones. The
cranium is located right on top of the
mandible. It is the upper portion of the skull.
Healthy Hint
Exercise regularly to
keep your bones strong

Muscles of the body
Occipital
Trapeziums
The occipital muscle is a muscle
that covers parts of the skull or
cranium. It consists of 2 parts or as some
people call it bellies. The occipital belly is near
the occipital bone. The other belly, the frontal
belly is near the frontal bone. It action in the
body is to draw the scalp back which raises the
eyebrows and wrinkles.

eyebrows and wrinkles.

strong
The trapeziums is the long
muscle that extends itself
down to the Occipital bone
to the thoracic vertebrae and
across to the shoulder blade.
This muscle has 3 functions.
1. The superior region is the part
in which supports the weight of the arm.
2. The intermediate region
reacts to the scapulae.
3. The inferior region which
medially rotates and depresses the
Scapulae. http://backandneck.about.com/od/
muscles/p/trapeziums.htm
The trapeziums has three
regions that help us move our
arms. It is located down the
occipital bone to the thoracic
vertebrae and is across from
the shoulder blade.
The Skin
Skin
The skin covers your bones and muscles.
It is actually it is a organ. It's job is to
protect the body, keep the body at the
right temperature, and it allows us to have
the sense of touch. The biggest job it has
is that it keeps our body together. In
meaning that without that our skin all our
guts and bones would be hanging out.
http://kidshealth.org
The skin is the largest
organ in the body. The
Skin covers all parts
of the body. It is a vital
part of your body. The
skin is always creating
new cells and skin cells
are always dying it happens
without you even knowing.
There are 3 layers of skin :
the top one is the epidermis,
The middle on is the dermis,
And the last on is the hyper dermis.

The Nervous System
The nervous system is made up of your brain,
spinal cord, and a giant network of nerves that
thread throughout your body. The nervous system helps
you smell, taste, touch, and many more things. Your brain
uses the info from your nerves to tell what the body should
do. The nerves are like dominoes, when one fells, touches,
Hears or anything else it passes a electrical current to the brain.

The nervous system
is like the control system
for the body. It is in control of your body.
It tells the brain when to talk, walk, or anything
else. If you didn’t have the nervous system then
you wouldn’t be able to do anything. The nerve are
A thin thread spread throughout your body. They
Are very small, but can be at least 3 feet long!
The Digestive System
The digestive system is made of the mouth,
intestines, stomach, and you esophagus.
When you’re eating food it doesn’t just go
from your mouth to your stomach. It has a
very complicated system. The digestive system
has the Important job of digesting your food.
As soon as the food reaches you’re mouth salvia
appears in your mouth. It may seem gross, but salvia
has a important job in the digestive system. It helps you
break down your food while your chewing. The esophagus
Is a long tube that carries the food down your throat. The
Esophagus actually has a muscle that pushes the food down.
This action is called peristalsis. The opposite of this is vomiting.
Next comes in the stomach. It breaks the food down even more.
It uses help from the gastric, which gets rid of all the bacteria.
Then the stomach sends off all the food to the intestines. The
small intestines take all the minerals and vitamins for the body to
be able to use them. Then all the rest of the food that you cannot use
Is sorted into solid of liquid.

The Digestive System
The digestive system is made of 4 main things. The
mouth, intestines, stomach, and the esophagus. The
food goes through a much harder process then you
think. The first thing that happens is that it goes in your
mouth and your mouth produces salvia and this helps
break down the food. The next thing is that the food
goes down your esophagus and and into the stomach
and breaks down the food even more. It gets help from
the gastric to get rid of the bacteria. Next it is on to the
small intestines to take all the nutrients from the food
and the sorts the food into liquids and solids.

The Circulatory System
The circulatory system is made of many muscles and vessels.
This controls the flow of your blood around your body. It is made of
4 main parts these are the heart, arteries, veins, and capillaries.
As the blood begins to move it leaves the heart and leaves
through the left aorta. The blood leaving the aorta is filled with
oxygen. The blood filled with oxygen now will be carried
throughout the body in the system of arteries and into the smallest
arterioles. On the way back to the heart it goes through the a
system of veins. As it reaches the heart the carbon dioxide in the
blood is removed and replaced with oxygen that you inhaled
through your lungs.

The Circulatory System
The circulatory system is in control of
your blood flow and the way it moves
around the body. It is made up of 2
main things: muscles and veins.
When the blood begins to move it
leaves the heart. It exits through the
left aorta. When the blood is leaves it
is filled with oxygen. Then starts to
travel around the body. It first goes to
a system of arteries and then on its
way back to the heart it goes through
a system of vein ad when it gets to
the heart the carbon dioxide is
removed then replaced with new
oxygen from the lungs.

The Respiratory System
Lungs are the largest organ in your body.The lungs work with the
respiratory system to make you be able to breathe fresh air, get rid of
old air, and talk. The lung are located in your upper chest and take up
almost all the space up there. It is protected by your rib cage. While you
inhale your lungs get bigger and take in oxygen. This happens because
so many alveoli fill up with air causing the lungs to expand. The alveoli
allow the oxygen to pass into your blood. The blood cells in your body
need oxygen every minute of the day. The oxygen enters the blood in
the tiny capillaries, hitching a ride on red blood cells and traveling
through layers of blood vessels to the heart. Now the body has to get rid
of all the carbon dioxide and other waste products of exhaling. By
breathing out of your nose all the waste products are leaving your body
and it’s warm. This is caused by when the air picks up heat from the
body.

The Respiratory System
The respiratory system is made up of all the parts of your body that
enable you to breathe. You breath in order to bring oxygen into the
body and get rid of carbon dioxide. The lungs are part of this. The
lungs bring in the air and convert it to oxygen and deliver it to the
cells. The oxygen is carried into the red blood cells by capillaries.

• Aorta:
Vocabulary
the largest artery in the body, originating from the left ventricle of
the heart extends down to the abdomen, where it branches off into two
smaller arteries. The aorta brings oxygenated blood to all parts of the body
in the systemic circulation.
• Premaxilla:
a pair of small cranial bones at the very tip of the jaws of
many animals, usually bearing teeth, but not always. They are connected to
the maxilla and the nasals.
• Inferior Vena Cava:
the large vein that carries de-oxygenated blood
from the lower half of the body into the right atrium of the heart.
• Thoracic Vertebrae: composes the middle segment of the vertebral
column, between the cervical vertebrae (neck) and the lumbar vertebrae
(lower back).
• Stratum corneum:
the outermost layer of the epidermis, composed of
large, flat, plate-like envelopes filled with keratin, which is made up of dead
cells that have migrated up from the stratum granulosum.
