Oxygen A molecule that organisms get from the air or water around them and use to release energy.
Amino Acids Molecules that are the building blocks of proteins.
System A set of interacting parts forming an interacting whole.
Respotory System The body system that takes in oxygen, and releases carbon dioxied.
Digestive System The body system that takes in food and breaks it down
Circulatory System The body system that transports molecules to and from all cells of the body.
Energy The ability to make things move or change.
