The Muscular

SystemDavid Mejia

One of the most known

muscles is the biceps, because

the guys always show them off

when talking about muscles.

The biceps are located in the

upper part of the arm. The

triceps are opposite the biceps

and when you push a chair in

you are activating this

muscle. When you kick a

soccer ball you activate your

quadricep. The gluteusMaximus is known because is

the one you sit on every

day. Pectoral muscles help you

do push ups. Your abdominal

muscle helps you lift yourselfup when laying down. And the

deltoid allows you to throw a

baseball.!

The Immune System

DiscoveriesAntonia Lizarralde

The immune system is made of a

network of tissues, cells and organsthat work together to protect your

body. Immune means your body is

protected. In this case, the immune

system helps fight off sickness, viruses

and diseases in your body.

You have lymph nodes (also called

glands) in your body that contain

immune system cells, white blood cells

and leukocytes. Lymph nodes are

connected with others, and they take

white blood cells wherever needed.

Usually white blood cells are

floating in your body but, when bacteria

enters, white blood cells start to

work. This is what happens with white

blood cells. They divide into more white

blood cells. This is better because it iseasier to fight of disease.

The Muscular

SystemSergio Matiz

Muscles are made up by cells.

Each muscle cell is called a fiber.Inside each muscle you have muscle

strands. Strands are made up by

thinner strands. Your brain sends a

message to muscle fiber. When the

message gets to your muscle fiber

the tiny strands slides towards eachother. So the muscle fiber gets

shorter, the whole muscle contracts.

It pulls parts that are attached it.

That makes your body move.

Voluntary muscles are musclesthat moves by you telling them to

move. Involuntary muscles are the

muscles that are self movers or

automatic, like blinking, breathing, and

digesting food. Those muscles are

controlled by nerves.!

The Skeletal SystemOlga Suarez

Have you ever wondered

how your skeletal system

works and why it is important?There are many reasons. It

makes lots of blood cells in

every second. Also it is

important because it helps us

to move, run and skip. Last, didyou know that bones provide a

hard surface for the muscles to

attach to?

The skeleton is a livingframework for all kinds of

muscles and organs. The bones

provide a firm surface for the

muscles to attach to.The

skeleton protects the internalorgans.

The Organ that

Controls EverythingEsteban Archila

You cant live without your

brain, its the boss of you whole

body. The brain controls

everything about the nervous

system. The brain sends

messages to the nerves and the

nerves sends messages back tothe brain. The messages travel in

thin long cables called nerves. If

you want to move your arm the

nerves send messages to the

brain and the brain sends back a

message to move your arm.

This system controls life

organs and parts things we dont

control like breathing, digesting

food, and circulating blood.!!!!!!!!!

The Importance of

the Busy Muscular

SystemJulian Hernandez

Muscles move animals and

humans like you! You talk, walk,

shake hands, smile or even blink,

thanks to the muscles that you

have in your body. The

musculatory system can be one ofthe busiest systems in the human

body. About 40% of your body

system weight is made up of your

muscles.

The muscles are made from a

type of tissue composed of some

cells called contractive cells or

fibers that allow body

movement. Together, with theskeletal system, your muscles

provide the bodys framework and

support for internal organs.

Navigating the

Digestive SystemLucas Onoro

You are digesting before you even

bite your food. When you smell the foodyour body prepares for digestion and itstarts to send saliva. Then you put thefirst part of the food in your mouth andstart chewing. The digestion takes a fewhours to be completed. After you havechewed it enough, you swallow it and it

goes down to your esophagus then, thefood goes into the stomach.There thestomach releases acids to make the foodsmall enough to be consumed by acell.Then it travels to the small intestine.There are some capillaries and theyconsume the microscopic food, then ittravels around the body feeding the redblood cells. The waste and not neededfood moves on to the large intestine.There the waste sticks together andforms feces. Then it sends a signal to thebrain to tell you its time to poop so then

you go to the bathroom and WOOSHthe feces is disposed out.

The Dazzling Fast

Nervous SystemMateo Gomez

Your brain and nervous system

are like the bodys own internalcomputer. Without them you wouldn'tbe able to see, touch, hear, smell, andtaste. Also, your body would notrespond to your movements and itwouldn't be able to do the processes

needed for you to survive.

Without your cerebrum youwouldn't be able to think. Without yourcerebellum you cant keep yourbalance. Without the pituitary gland

you wouldn't be able to grow. Withoutthe brain stem the body wouldnt beable to do all the functions it needs tosurvive, like digesting food. Thenervous system is essential for allliving things. Without it, you cant live.

The Process of the

Nervous SystemAna Urrutia

There are three main parts in

your nervous system that are

important including your brain,

your spinal cord, and your nerves.

Your brain is the boss of your

body. It controls everything youdo like breathing, thinking, your

senses, walking, and every

movement of your muscles.

Your spinal cord extends

from the brain all the way downyour back to your waist. It

branched out to smaller nerves

around your body that serve many

parts of the body, telling them

what to do.

The Amazing

Digestive SystemSamantha Maldonado

Do you know about the

digestive system? Do you know

why it is important? The digestive

system is a complex series of

organs that break down the food

and get rid of waste. Food

contains vitamins, nutrients, andminerals your body needs. Your

body uses food to grow, stay

healthy, mend itself, and give you

energy.

To be able to use the food we

eat, our body has to break it down

into very small molecules it can

use. Some parts of the system are

tube like that contain the food.Other parts contain or make

digestive juices.

The Amazing

Respiratory SystemAnn Pearl

now we will take a journey through

the immune system.

1. First the Epidermis (the outside layer

of skin) warns the body of incoming germs

like for example if you are cold.

2. The next part where germs try to

attack is the eyes. The tears that wash theeyes have special enzymes (chemicals) that

break down the cell walls of the bacteria.

3. Saliva in the mouth works like the

tears in the eyes. Your saliva has special

enzymes that break down cell walls of

bacteria.

4. Mucous membranes line with mouth

and lungs they act like a barrier to bacteria.

5. Stomach acid kills the bacteria that

gets through all the barriers and protections.

6. If bacteria gets through all of those

protections then the body sends white blood

cells through lymph to the bacteria!!!!!

The Immune SystemManuela Cortes

Your immune system is

very important to your

bodys health and keepingyou alive and well. Without it

you would probably get sick

every day. Your immune

system can fight offbacteria before you even

realize you are sick. You

know your immune system is

working if you get better

after you are sick. Thankyour immune system!

The Skeletal SystemAlexa Martinez

The skeletal system is

important for many reasons.

First of all, it keeps your body'sstructure up. If you didnt have

bones you couldn't stand up or

walk. Your jaw is important

because without it, it would be

hard to eat because your teethare bones. The jaw also helps

you talk.

Your bones have another

important function. Theyprotect your organs because

organs are fragile. The rib

bones protect our heart,

kidneys and lungs. Your skull is

hard and protects your brain.Thats why the skeletal system

is important.!!!!!

The Amazing Great

Circulatory SystemAlejandro Comargo

It takes about a minutefor a red-blood cell to go

around the circulatory

system. On the way back

from the cells, blood enters

to the right atrium of yourheart and to the right

ventricle. Then it goes to

your lungs. In the lungs it

gives the carbon dioxideand it gets new oxygen.

Then it goes to the left

atrium and left ventricle

and to the arteries so it

delivers water, food, and

oxygen to all the cells.!!!

The Amazing

Digestive SystemAlejandra Cardenas

What process does our food

have when it passes through the

digestive system?

First it starts in the mouth.

Chewing breaks food down and

mixes it with saliva that turnsfood into smaller molecules. Then

we swallow the food that goes

down the esophagus into the

stomach. In the stomach strong

acids and juices break down the

food and pass it to the smallintestine. In the small intestine

food breaks down into nutrients.

Then the nutrients pass through

the small intestine to the blood to

the cells. In the large intestineunused parts of the food go to the

large intestine where water is

removed and waste gets ready

for elimination!

The Nervous SystemMateo Pardo

The nervous system

controls everything you do, like

moving, eating, talking, hearing,everything you can think of

that involves something with

your body. Without it we would

die. It tells our body what to do.

It is made up of your brain,

nerves, and spinal cord. The

brain controls everything you

do. The spinal cord, carries

messages throughout yourbody to and from the brain. The

nerves, receive and send

messages to and from the

brain.
