Heart - a hollow, muscular organ located in the chest cavity between the lungs
Kidneys – two bean-shaped organs located at the back of the abdominal cavity, sustain the body’s chemical balance
by getting out waste products and excess fluid in the form of urine.
Lungs- two sponge-like organs located inside the chest cavity, combine oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide
Bones-are the framework of the body that support and protect the various organs of the body
Muscles- connective tissues that are responsible for movement
Liver- filtering machine of the body, take away toxins out of the blood
Gallbladder- is a hollow system sitting just beneath the liver. It acts as reservoir for holding bile on its way from the
liver to the intestine
Stomach- an elastic, large, muscular, pear-shaped bag with a multi-chambered organ located crosswise in the
abdominal cavity beneath the diaphragm
Diaphragm - largest muscle and the most efficient
Respiratory System - Delivers the oxygen to the gas exchange area • Enables us to smell, breathe, and talk •
Removes waste substances through exhaling
Muscular System - Provides movement, support, posture, and heat production
Digestive system – Breaks down and helps in food processing and converts food into nutrients • Helps the body
absorb the nutrients from the food • Eliminates solid waste food product
Circulatory system - Transports gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide) and nutrients to the cells • Removes and
transports carbon dioxide and other waste materials away from the body cells • Protects the body from diseases
and infection • Stops bleeding through blood clotting
The root system of the plant - is usually found under the ground, and it grows toward gravity. The root system
includes roots and special parts such as tubers and rhizomes. The roots of the plant hold or anchor the plant and
absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
The shoot system - is the opposite of the root system. It grows upward. It is found above the ground and includes
the stems, leaves, flowers, seeds, and fruits
Incomplete metamorphosis - Unlike in complete metamorphosis where an animal undergoes four life stages, there
are only three life stages in incomplete metamorphosis—the egg, the nymph, and the adult.
Complete metamorphosis - Animals that undergo complete metamorphosis experience four levels in their life
cycles. These animals also dramatically change as they morph into each of the stages in their life cycles. (egg, larvae,
pupa, adult)
