| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| describe smooth muscle | involuntary muscle that are found in the intestines and in the bladder |
| type of muscles that you control | skeletal/voluntary |
| involuntary muscles in your heart | cardiac muscle |
| muscles that are used to move bones | skeletal/voluntary |
| job of tendon | connect muscle to bone |
| job of ligament | connect bone to bone |
| job of bone marrow | produce blood cells |
| flexible tissue that cushions the end of bones and acts as a shock absorber | cartilage |
| the blood vessels that carry blood to your heart | veins |
| cells that are used to fight off infection | white blood cells |
| liquid part of blood that carries blood cells and nutrients to cells and waste away from cells | plasma |
| blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart | arteries |
| blood vessels that allow materials to enter and leave the blood | capillaries |
| blood cells that carry oxygen | red blood cells |
| type of muscle used: heart pumping blood | cardiac (involuntary) |
| type of muscle used for walking | voluntary/skeletal |
| type of muscle used: digestive system moving food | smooth (involuntary) |
| type of muscle used: holding a pencil | skeletal (voluntary) |
| jobs of circulatory system (4) | deliver food and oxygen to the cells of the body, carry carbon dioxide away form the cells of the body, fight infections, heal wounds. |
| jobs of skeletal system (5) | make blood cells, store minerals, provide structure and support, protect organs |
| jobs of muscular system | move bones, move internal organs, push materials through internal organs |
| describe the pulmonary "loop" of the circulatory system | blood travels from the heart to the lungs, drops off CO2 and picks up oxygen, goes back to heart |
| describe the systemic "loop" of the circulatory system | blood travels from the heart to all of the systems of the body to deliver and pick up wastes, food, etc. and then comes back to the heart |
| job of platelets | help blood to clot |
