Levels of Organization: All organisms are made of cells. Most cells are organized into functional units called tissues. The four basic tissues of the human body are: epithelial, muscle, connective, and nervous tissues.
3
Levels of Organization: Organs are groups of tissues that perform specialized jobs. Examples of organs are: eyes and stomach A group of organs that work together to carry out a major life function is called an organ system.
4
Levels of Organization: CELLS ----> TISSUE ----> ORGAN ----> ORGAN SYSTEM
5
Skeletal System: The skeletal system provides the following: 1. support 2. place for muscle attachment 3. protection for vital organs 4. manufactures blood cells 5. stores calcium and phosphorus
6
Skeletal System: The skeletal system consists of the following: axial skeleton: skull and bones of the back and chest appendicular skeleton: bones associated with the limbs. Help, I’m falling apart
7
Skeletal System: The place where two bones meet is called a joint. There are five types of joints: immovable: skull ball and socket: shoulder hinge: elbow gliding: wrist pivot: neck

Muscular System Muscles are used for movement Muscles are either voluntary or involuntary –Involuntary : muscles not under conscious control –Voluntary: muscles are under conscious control
14
Muscular System There are three types of muscles 1.Smooth – found in the walls of hollow organs like the stomach. (Involuntary) 2.Skeletal – found in the muscles that are attached to the bones. (Voluntary) 3.Cardiac – found only in the heart (Involuntary)

Respiratory System: REVIEW: Formula for Cellular Respiration: C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 - 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + energy (ATP) ReactantsProducts ( in mitochondria)
17
Respiratory System: The function of the respiratory system is to exchange gases between blood and the air. Oxygen is inhaled and passed into the blood from small air sacs found in the lungs. These sacs are called alveoli.
18
Respiratory System: Carbon dioxide is passed to the lungs by the blood. The CO 2 is then diffused out of the blood into the alveoli. Carbon dioxide is then forced out of the lungs when you exhale.
20
Respiratory System: The major organs of the respiratory system are: nasal cavity: aids in warming and filtering out the air that is inhaled. pharynx: area at the back of the mouth larynx: upper part of the “wind pipe”
21
Respiratory System: trachea: windpipe; it is lined with cilia that prevent foreign particles from reaching the lungs. bronchi: branches of the trachea, leading into the lungs that are covered in cilia to prevent foreign particles from reaching the lungs lungs: organs composed of alveoli, and the place where gas exchange with the blood occurs.
23
Circulatory System: The circulatory system has the following functions: 1. pump blood through the blood vessels 2. carry oxygen from the lungs and nutrients to all the body cells. 3. carry hormones to their target tissues 4. take carbon dioxide back to the lungs 5. take other wastes to the excretory system
24
Circulatory System: The organs of the circulatory system are: heart: organ made of cardiac muscle, that pumps blood throughout the body. blood vessels: structures used to carry blood throughout the body (veins, arteries, and capillaries)
25
Circulatory System: arteries: elastic vessel that transports oxygenated blood away from the heart. (the pulmonary artery takes unoxygenated blood to the lungs.) veins: large vessels that return unoxygenated blood from the tissues back to the heart. (the pulmonary vein take oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart) capillaries: smallest blood vessels with walls only one cell thick. Site where nutrients, oxygen,and carbon dioxide diffuse between blood and tissues.

Blood typing Determining blood type is necessary before a person can receive a blood transfusion because the red blood cells of incompatible blood types could clump together, causing death. Your immune system recognizes the red blood cells as belonging to you. If cells with a different surface molecule enter your body, your immune system will attack them.
33
Blood typing
34
Phenotype A (review) The l A allele is dominant to i, so inheriting either the l A i alleles or the l A l A alleles from both parents will give you type A blood
35
Phenotype B (review) The l B allele is also dominant to I, so to have type B blood, you must inherit the l B allele from one parent and either another l B allele or the i allele from the other.
36
Phenotype AB (review) The l A and l B alleles are codominant. This means that if you inherit the l A allele from one parent and the l B allele from the other, your red blood cells will produce both surface molecules and you will have type AB blood.
37
Phenotype O (review) The i allele is recessive and produces no surface molecules. Therefore, if you are homozygous ii, your blood cells have no surface molecules and you have blood type O.
38

Endocrine System: This system controls all of the metabolic activities of the body. This system includes all of the glands that secrete hormones in the body. Made of many glands that release chemical products (hormones) into the bloodstream which target cells elsewhere Hormones: chemical messages that affect target cells Roller coaster thrills are due to hormones.
52
Endocrine System: hormones: chemical secreted by a gland that affects another part of an organism; hormones play a key role in regulating metabolism of digestion, growth, and reproduction. –examples of hormones: estrogen, testosterone, growth hormone gland: fluid secreting cell or group of cells; produce fluids such as hormones –examples of glands: pituitary, thyroid, adrenal, ovaries, pancreas, testes
53
Types of Body Glands Exocrine: release secretions through ducts directly to organs (ex: sweat, tears, digestive juices) Endocrine: release chemicals directly into the blood stream Sweat gland and ducts
55
Pituitary Gland Secretes 9 hormones that directly regulate body functions and controls other endocrine glands –Growth hormone (GH) –Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) –Oxytocin –Prolactin –TSH –FSH and LH (reproductive hormones)
56
Thyroid Gland Regulates body metabolism Too much thyroxine = hyperthyroidism (high metabolism, jittery, weight loss) Too little thyroxine = hypothyroidism (lower metabolism and body temperature, weight gain) Lack of iodine = goiter Thyroid Hormone x12,000 by Dee Breeger
57
Parathyroid Hormone Glands surrounding thyroid Helps to regulate calcium levels in blood
58
Adrenal Glands Release hormones that help people prepare and deal with stress Epinephrine Norepinephrine Commonly called adrenaline The adrenal gland makes several hormones. The inner zone (medulla) makes adrenaline. The outer zone (cortex) supplies cortisol as well as other hormones controlling salt balance (aldosterone) and sexual development

73
Female Reproductive System Primary function: produce ova and prepare the body to nourish a developing embryo Typically only one mature ova is produced per menstrual cycle. Color modified SEM of egg
74
Menstrual cycle Human females undergo monthly cycles where the uterine lining is prepared in the event of fertilization. The lining is shed or released if fertilization does not take place. There is little blood, mostly water and proteins, that line the uterine walls.
75
Charting the Menstrual Cycle LH, FSH, Estrogen, Progesterone control the development of the egg and the building of the uterine lining.
76
vagina: the passage way that leads from the uterus to the outside of the body
77
Stages of Human Development One sperm cell must fertilize the egg within the Fallopian tubes (oviduct) within a few hours of ovulation. The fertilized egg undergoes mitosis, where it then travels to the uterus for implantation. SEM of sperm fertilizing egg
