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.
