A
The circulation of blood between the heart and the body. (It starts off oxygen rich and delivers oxygen & other nutrients (glucose, & hormones) and picks up carbon dioxide & other wastes
from all the body cells. It returns to the heart oxygen poor.)
23
Q
pulmonary circulation
A
The circulation of blood between your heart and lungs. (It starts off oxygen poor and goes to the lungs to pick up oxygen and drop off carbon dioxide. It returns to the heart oxygen rich.)

34
main function of respiratory system
A collection of organs whose primary function is to take in oxygen and expel
carbon dioxide.
35
Additional functions of the Respiratory System
(3)
- Gas exchange – absorbs O2 from the air and expels CO2 from the body.
- Secretes molecules to aid in lung defense.
- Allows you to talk.
36
Nose / Mouth in respiratory system
The passageways through which air enters and leaves the body.
37
Pharynx
The upper portion of the throat – the very back cavity of the mouth that opens into the larynx (respiratory system) or esophagus (digestive system).
38
Larynx
A cartilaginous structure at the top of the trachea that contains the vocal cords (voice box).
39
Trachea
The passageway for air traveling from the larynx to the lungs (windpipe).
40
Bronchi
The two air tubes the trachea splits into within the lungs that connect to the bronchioles.
41
Bronchioles
the smaller tubes the bronchi split into that lead to the alveoli.
42
Thousands of tiny sacs at the ends of the bronchioles in the lungs
that contain air.
Alveoli
43
A pair of organs situated in the rib cage, consisting of elastic sacs with branching passages into which air is drawn, so that oxygen can pass into the blood and carbon dioxide be removed.
Lungs
44
The muscle at the bottom of the lungs that contracts and moves down to draw air into the lungs and relaxes and moves up to help push air out of the lungs.
Diaphragm
45
know order of airflow for the respiratory system
Yes
46
Respiration
The exchange of gasses between living cells and their environment; includes breathing and cellular respiration.
47
the process by which some organisms take in air and absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide.
Breathing
48
The process by which some organisms use glucose and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (Cell Energy) in the mitochondria of cells. Muscles (skeletal, cardiac, and smooth) have more mitochondria than all other tissue types because they constantly need to make ATP (energy) to keep moving.
Cellular Respiration
49
why is breathing not the same as respiration
it is only part of it
50
when you inhale 4 things happen
- diaphragm is contracted
-diaphragm flattens (moves down)
-rib cage expands
-oxygen goes in
51
when you exhale 4 things happens
-diaphragm is relaxed
- diaphragm moves up
-rib cage returns to resting position
-carbon dioxide goes out
52
why does the cardiovascular system need the respiratory system
The respiratory system helps the cardiovascular system by supplying the blood with oxygen and
removing the carbon dioxide waste product from the blood.
53
why does the respiratory system need the cardiovascular system
The cardiovascular system helps the respiratory system by supplying organs (like the lungs) with oxygen and glucose and taking away the carbon dioxide and other waste products.
54
why is cardiovascular system closed
blood is always contained inside of blood vessels.
55
why is lymphatic system open
lymph can move in and out of lymph vessels

main function of digestive system
To break down food and turn it into small enough nutrients that they can be
absorbed into the bloodstream.
66
Additional functions of the digestive system. (2)
Breakdown food into small nutrients the body can use.
The digestive system performs both mechanical and chemical digestion
67

70
esophagus
A long, straight tube that connects the throat to the stomach.
71
A muscular, baglike organ attached to the lower end of the esophagus and the small intestines.
stomach
72
function of stomach
The stomach does both mechanical (mixing) and chemical digestion (enzymes). Stomach acids can kill bacteria.
73
small intestine definition
A tube that does most of the chemical digestion of food and most of the nutrient absorption.
74
from what other organs does the small intestine receive stuff from
stomach, gall bladder, and pancreas.
75
villi definition
fingerlike projections that are covered with tiny nutrient-absorbing cells that pass nutrients on to the bloodstream.
76
Large Intestine
A short, but large in diameter tube that stores, compacts, and then eliminates indigestible material from the body. (water and vitamin absorption occurs here)
77
Rectum
Last section of the large intestine. (stores feces until they are expelled)
78
Anus

79
what are the 4 accessory organs
Pancreas
Salivary Glands
Liver
Gall Bladder
80
def. of Salivary Glands
Glands that produce a liquid that contains an enzyme that begins the chemical digestion of carbohydrates and is watery to make food easier to swallow.
81
An organ located between the stomach and small intestine that makes pancreatic enzymes to help chemically break down food and produces a bicarbonate to neutralize the acids in the small intestine from the stomach.
Pancreas
82
Liver
A large reddish brown organ next to the stomach that stores nutrients and helps with digestion by producing bile that helps chemical digest lipids (fats). Bile made by the liver is stored in the gall bladder.
83
def. of Gall Bladder
A small, green baglike organ that temporarily stores the bile made by the liver and releases it into the small intestine.

100
path of urinary tract
Kidney------Ureter--------Urinary Bladder------Urethra-
100
STAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRR
what is the order in which blood is cleaned and urine is formed??? (5 steps)
1.Large arteries bring blood into each kidney.
2. Water and other small substances are forced out of the blood vessels and into the nephrons.
3. The cleaned blood, with slightly less water and less waste material, leaves each kidney in a large vein to recirculate in the body.
4. The urine that remains in the nephrons leave each kidney through a tube called the ureter and flows into the bladder where it is stored.
5. Urine leaves the body through a tube called the urethra.
100
Why does the cardiovascular system need the digestive system?
by supplying the blood with glucose/nutrients

100
why does the digestive system need the cardiovascular system?
by delivering nutrients to and removing waste products from all of its organs (stomach, liver, both intestines)
100
what digestion things do all organisms do? (4)

by holding in and releasing urine from the urinary bladder
100
The muscular system helps the digestive how?
