,(see Unit 1: Module 1: Nervous System)
Which body system controls muscle coordination? (Integumentary system, central
nervous system, or both)
Central Nervous System
(see Unit 1: Module 1: Nervous System)
Muscular System: this muscle moves all bones and controls facial expressions and eye
movements. Which of the following is the correct name for the type of muscle? (Striated
Muscle, Smooth Muscle, Cardiac Muscle)
Striated Muscle.
Aka: Skeletal Muscle.
There are striations or straight lines seen under the microscope when viewing this type
of muscle
(See Unit 1: Module 1: Muscular System)
Muscular System: this muscle lines the walls of internal organs. What is the name of this
muscle type? (Striated Muscle, Smooth Muscle, Cardiac Muscle)
Smooth Muscle.
Aka: Visceral Muscle.
Ex: intestines
(See Unit 1: Module 1: Muscular System)
Muscular System: this muscle is a combination of both the striated and smooth muscles.
,What is the name of this muscle type? (Striated Muscle, Smooth Muscle, Cardiac
Muscle)Cardiac Muscle.
Located only in the heart.
See Unit 1: Module 1: Muscular System
This body system is responsible for receiving sensory input, communicating to the
brain, controlling homeostasis and sending out communications to cause the body to
move. Name this body system
The Nervous System
Aka: the "control center"
See Unit 1: Module 1: Nervous System
There are two types of systems within the nervous system, what is the name of the
system that consists of nerves inside the brain and spinal cord that send signals to other
parts of the body?
The Central Nervous System
Think: Brain and Spine
See Unit 1: Module 1: Nervous System
There are two types of systems within the nervous system, what is the name of the
system that consists of nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord that send signals to
other parts of the body?
, The Peripheral Nervous System
Think: NOT brain and spine.
Ex: eyes, ears, nose, mouth.
See Unit 1: Module 1: Nervous System
This body system works with the cardiovascular system to provide oxygen to cells and
to remove waste products.
The Respiratory System
Includes the:
-lungs (primary organ)
-alveoli: tiny air sacs in the lungs that transfer carbon dioxide out of the body.
-passage ways for airflow
-upper tracts
-nose
