Introduction
The Human Body is a wonderful, complicated machine whose parts all
work together to keep the body healthy. You are going to learn how
the digestive, muscular, nervous, respiratory, and circulatory
systems all work together in your body to give it the fuel and
energy you need.
Process
Your group will choose one of the following body systems and
research it using the Human Body Websites embedded within this
power point.Complete the four square provided by your teacher as
your power point organizer.
The Circulatory System
You will follow the path of a blood cell throughout the body,
beginning with the heart and finally returning to the heart. List
all the places through which the blood travels. Insert a picture of
an image from your journey.
The Muscular System
You will follow the path of the different kinds of muscles
throughout your body. List all the different kinds of muscles and
tell why they are important to your body. Insert a picture of an
image from your journey.
The Respiratory System
You will follow the path of a breath of air from the time it is
inhaled until it is exhaled. List all the places through which the
air travels. Insert a picture of an image from your
journey.
The Nervous System
You will follow the path of your brain sending, receiving, and
processing messages throughout the nervous system. Include the
three parts of the nervous system. Insert a picture of an image
from your journey.
The Digestive System
You will follow the path of a bite of pizza from the time you put
it in your mouth until it leaves your body. List all the places
through which the food travels. Insert a picture of an image from
your journey.

Conclusion
You have now learned about the transport systems of the human body.
You have listed and included images of the places through which
food, air, and blood travel, muscle activity and the process of
sending and receiving brain messages. Now that you know about these
systems you understand how important they are to your survival. You
can use this knowledge to make good choices about physical
activity, brain response, the food you eat, the air you breathe and
the substances that can get into your blood.
Evaluation/Rubric
You will be assessed on the accuracy of your information
presented.Be sure to include an image of your journey.Slides need
titles.
