$100 Question for Digestive System What is digestion?

$100 Answer for Digestive System The process of breaking down food into simpler, more useable substances.

$200 Question from Digestive System What is a calorie?

$200 Answer from Digestive System Calorie is the measure of energy that is supplied by the food and drinks that you eat. Human beings are like cars in that we both need fuel to survive. Cars burn gasoline to convert into energy. Humans burn food to convert into energy. Gasoline is measured in gallons, and energy from food is measured in calories.

$300 Question from Digestive System What is the difference between chemical and mechanical digestion?

$300 Answer from Digestive System Chemical Digestion: - Breaks down food into new substances - Food is broken down by enzymes - Happens in mouth, stomach, and small intestines Mechanical Digestion: - Physical action of breaking down food into smaller pieces - Happens in the mouth and stomach

$400 Question from Digestive System For each nutrient, list its possible uses in the body. 1) Water 2) Minerals/ Vitamins 3) Fats 4) Carbohydrate 5) Protein

$400 Answer from Digestive System 1)Water: Carries dissolved substances in the body 2) Minerals/Vitamins: Needed for use of other nutrients, proper growth, and cell function 3) Fats : Energy storage 4) Carbohydrates: Major source of energy 5) Protein: Builds and repairs tissue

$500 Question from Digestive System Trace the pathway of food as it enters the mouth until it exits the anus.

$500 Answer from Digestive System 1) Mouth : 1 st place food enters (food is digested chemically and mechanically) 2) Esophagus : transport food from mouth to stomach (Digestion does not happen here. ) 3) Stomach: Churns the food into smaller pieces through mechanical and chemical digestion. 4) Small Intestine: chemical digestion occurs here, 1 st place where absorption happens 5) Large Intestine: no digestion, just absorption of water and minerals 6) Rectum: stores waste that was not digested (feces) 7) Anus: feces leaves the body through this organ

$100 Question from Circulatory System What is the function of the circulatory system?

$100 Answer from Circulatory System The job of the circulatory system is to transport materials throughout the body. The materials that are transported are wastes, food, oxygen, water, and other materials needed by the cells.

$200 Question from Circulatory System Name three types of blood vessels and describe where they transport the blood.

$200 Answer from Circulatory System Veins: Transport blood in the heart Arteries: Transports blood away from the heart Capillaries: Surround the cells, found in between the arteries and veins

$300 Question from Circulatory System Describe thickness of the blood vessels and give an explanation of the reason for each width.

$300 Answer from Circulatory System Arteries are thickest blood vessels. The reason why they are so thick is because of the high blood pressure from blood being pumped away from the heart. Veins are the not as thick as arteries but thicker than capillaries. The blood pressure in the veins is not as high as in the arteries. That is why some veins have valves to prevent backflow of blood going back into the heart. Capillaries are only one cell thick. They need to be thin so that they can transport materials to the cells.

$400 Question from Circulatory System Give the name of the four parts of the blood shown below and describe their jobs. B A D C

$400 Answer from Circulatory System B D A C A- White Blood Cell: Involved in fighting disease and infection B- Platelets: Involved in clotting to prevent loss of blood C- Red Blood Cells: Carries oxygen to the body cells D: Plasma: liquid part of the blood that carries the blood cells in the blood vessels

$500 Question from Circulatory System Trace the flow of blood through the heart and body, starting at the vein going into the right atrium and ending at the same vein entering the right atrium.

$500 Answer from Circulatory System Veins Right Atrium Right Ventricle Arteries Lungs Veins Left Atrium Left Ventricle Aorta (Artery) Capillaries Cells Capillaries Veins Right Atrium

$100 Question from Nervous System What is the function of the nervous system?

$100 Answer from Nervous System The nervous system sends out and receives information about the activities within the body. It also monitors and responds to changes in the environment.

$200 Question from Nervous System What life process is carried out in the nervous system?

$200 Answer from Nervous System Responsiveness: When an organism, changes to its environment it uses the nervous system to detect the stimulus and then respond in the correct manor.

$300 Question from Nervous System What is the difference between a stimulus and a response?

$300 Answer from Nervous System Stimulus: a signal to which an organism reacts; change in the environment Example: touching a hot pan Response: some action or movement of an organism brought on by a stimulus Example: quickly moving your hand away from the hot pan

$400 Question from Nervous System What is the difference between a reflex and a learned response?

$400 Answer from Nervous System Learned Response: action that is directed by the brain, is not automatic but learned from prior experiences Reflex: action that is directed by the spinal cord, is an automatic response, a quick action

$500 Question from Nervous System What is the difference between a sensory neuron and a motor neuron?

$500 Answer from Nervous System Each neuron can only carry messages in one direction. Because of this, two types of neurons must be used to respond to a stimulus. Sensory Neuron: type of neuron that carries messages from special receptors to the central nervous system, identifies the stimulus Motor Neuron: type of neuron that carries messages from the central nervous system to the part of the body that carries out the response

$100 Question from Excretory System What is the function of the excretory system?

$100 Answer from Excretory System The job of the excretory system is to remove wastes from the body.

$200 Question from Excretory System Which of the nine life processes are related to the excretory system?

$200 Answer from Excretory System Excretion is the removal of waste. Responsiveness is the body reacting to its environment. One such response, is sweating to release heat from the body. Heat is a waste product of the body.

$300 Question from Excretory System What are the waste products created by the body?

$300 Answer from Excretory System The waste products produced by the body are: N Heat NWater N Carbon Dioxide N Salt N Urea

$400 Question from Excretory System From what process does most of the waste products come from?

$400 Answer from Excretory System In the cells, respiration makes most of the waste products. Those products are water, heat, and carbon dioxide. Glucose + Oxygen Energy + HEAT + CO 2 + WATER
