Where does gas exchange take place in the lungs? alveoli

What is the main muscle of respiration? Diaphram

What happens when we inhale? Exhale? The diaphram contracts. the diaphram relax.

What are blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart called? Arteries


What are blood vessels that carry blood to the heart called? Veins


What is the sac that surrounds the heart called? pericardium


What is the muscular portion of the heart called? myocardium

What is the lining of the myocardium called? endocardium


What is the name of the upper cavities of the heart? The lower cavities? Atria & ventricles


What veins carry blood to the left atrium? The right atrium? Superior vena cava & inferior vena cava,


What arteries carry blood away from the left ventricle? The right ventricle? aorta &pulmonary

2. What types of tissues give the eye protection? connective & fatty

3. What structure in the eye produces tears? Lacrimal Glands

4. What acts as an antibacterial layer in the eye? conjuctiva

5. What is the cornea? front of the sclera

6. What layer of the eye contains the rods and cones?Retina

7. What is the function of the rods? The cones? night vision, Day & color vision

8. What is the colored part of the eye? Iris

9. What structure allows light to enter the eye? Pupil

Sketch picture of eye with following labeled: lacrimal glands, eyelashes, iris, pupil, cornea, lens, eyelid, sclera, choroids, optic nerve, and retina

Basic Ear worksheet

Sketch a picture of an ear and label the following:
A. Inner ear
B. middle ear
C. outer ear
D. pinna
E. tympanic membrane
F. cochlea
G. stapes
H. malleus

I. incus

What is the function of the following:
Pinna -Directing Sound waves into auditory canal
tympanic membrane- made of pinna and auditory canal.
ossicles -maginfies sound produced by ear drum
cochlea -Causes hairs to move which nerves intepret and send to brain to create hearing.
semicircular canals - balances the body

What three bones make up the ossicles? Stapes, Malleus,& Incus

What is the function of hairs in the ear? movement turns into impulses that your brain inteprets

Basic Nervous System Worksheet

1. What does CNS and PNS stand for? Central nervous system & Peripheral nervous system

2. What are the parts of the CNS? Brain & spinal cord

3. Describe something that you do on a regular basis that your PNS controls. uranation

4. What are the two divisions of the autonomic nervous system and what does each control?Sympathetic & para sympathetic. Controls body in stressful situations, brings body back to normal.

5. What are the three main types of neurons? What is the function of each? Sensory, motor, interneuron. recieve impulses from the body, tell you to react, transport impulse to the brain

6. What is the function of the axon of a nerve cell? The dendrite? impulses are sent from the axon and end up at the dendrite, synapse happens and it jumps to neuron.

7. What is a synapse? conduction of an impulse from one neuron to another.

8. Sketch a neuron and label the axon and the dendrite.
