Transcript How Do Body Systems Work Together

HOW DO BODY SYSTEMS WORK TOGETHER
The muscular, skeletal and nervous system working together to create
movement.
STANDARDS & OBJECTIVES
The instructional objectives for this project will be for student to be able to describe how the
muscular, nervous and skeletal systems work together in order to cause movement.
This project will satisfy Michigan’s Science Curriculum;
L.OL.05.41 – Identifying the general purpose of selected animal systems
L.OL.05.42-Explain how animal systems work together to perform
selected task
INTRODUCTION
This STaIR is designed for grade level 5 science introductory lesson on Body Systems. You
have to navigate through this project alone. At the conclusion of this lesson you should show
mastery of how the Nervous, Muscular and Skeletal systems work together to create
movement. Watch the “ Nervous, Skeletal and Muscle ”video provided for you as an
overview of the systems working together. Pay close attention, you will need to move your
mouse cursor toward the middle of the page to engage the video. Explore the interactive
activities for each body system after the definition slides. The definitions are highlighted in
yellow for your convenience. Test your knowledge on what you have learned at the end.
Have fun.
NERVOUS, SKELETAL AND MUSCULAR SYSTEM

THE SKELETAL SYSTEM
How the Skeletal System Functions:
Skeletal system provides a structure for the
body. It includes a vertebrae of spine and
supports upper body and head.
Types of Bones
Irregular bones-vertebrae bones or bones
found in the face.
Small bones – bones found in the legs
and arms
Short bones-bones found in the wrist and
ankles
Flat bones- Found in the skull and the rib
cage

NERVOUS SYSTEM
The nervous system is the connecting system made
up of billions of nerve cells or neurons (nerves) that
are controlled by the brain. The brain sends and
receives information about what is going on in the
body.
The nervous system has two main parts;
The Central Nervous System - is made up of the
brain and the spinal cord. The brain is in charge. It
sends and receives messages through the nerves
to control all body functions.
The Peripheral Nervous System - job is to carry
message to and from the central nervous system.
It’s core functions are to send information to the
brain and carry out orders from the brain
TWO MAIN PARTS OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM

THE MUSCLE SYSTEM
The muscle system functions in two ways:
Voluntary muscle functions are muscles
movement you can control. Most voluntary
muscles move your bones around. When
you run, walk, ride a bike or play video
games, your voluntary muscles move your
arms, legs and body around when the
brains sends them signals.
Involuntary muscle functions are muscle
movement that don’t need any brain
signals to do their job. Your heart beating,
breathing and food moving through the
digestion system are all involuntary muscle
functions.
TYPES OF MUSCLES
Muscles help to move parts of your body around. Your body has three types of muscles:
Skeletal muscles are attached to your bones and it is there job to move your bones.
Cardiac muscles are a type of striated muscle that help form the walls surrounding the heart.
Smooth muscles are made up of long thin cell with a single nucleus and no cross strips

EXPLORING THE MUSCULAR SYSTEM
Click on the
boxes next
to the
muscular
system (L)
and (R).
Move the
cursor over
the muscle
parts.
The purpose of the skeletal system is to ….
protect
support
aid all movement
all of the above
Well Done!
Let’s Move on to the
next question.
Oops!
That’s Wrong. Try again?
Yes No
Voluntary muscle do not help you to ….
play video games
ride a bike
breathe
jump on a trampoline
Well Done!
Let’s Move on to the
next question.
Oops!
That’s Wrong. Try again?
Yes No
What are the names of the two systems in the
human body?
Nerve and Muscle system
Nerve andTissue system
Central and Peripheral
All of the above
Well Done!
Let’s Move on to the
next question.
Oops!
That’s Wrong. Try again?
Yes No
Well Done!
Let’s Move on to the
next question.
Messages are carried back and forth between the brain
and other parts of the body by…..
nervous tissue
the circulatory system
digestive system
respiratory system
Oops!
That’s Wrong. Try again?
Yes No
Which body system do the muscles receive message
from in order to move…
Skeletal
Excretory
Nervous
Circulatory
Oops!
That’s Wrong. Try again?
Yes No
Well Done!
