3. Multiple cells come together to form tissues, the next level of organization in the human body. A tissue is a group of connected cells that have a similar function. There are four main types of human tissues. Identify the functions of each tissue type: (section 4.2 and 4.3) a. Nervous tissue b. Connective tissue c. Muscle tissue d. Epithelial tissue 4. Organs represent the next level of complexity in the human body. An organ is a specialized structure that includes two or more types of tissue. There are quite a few organs in the body, all specialized to accomplish a specific task. Five organs are considered vital for survival. Identify the five vital organs and their function: (section 4.4) a. b. c. d. e. 5. Functionally related organs often cooperate to form organ systems. Identify the functions of the following systems AND identify organs that would be associated with the system. It is important to note that organs may be part of more than one system. Ovaries, for example, are part of the reproductive system AND the endocrine system. (section 4.4) a. Integumentary system b. Skeletal system c. Muscular system d. Nervous system e. Endocrine system f. Cardiovascular system g. Respiratory system h. Digestive system i. Urinary system j. Reproductive system 7. The question arises as to how the body systems are coordinated to work together so seamlessly. How is communication among body systems possible? Two body systems are essential for communication between body parts. The two systems enabling this communication include: (section 4.6) a. b. In reading through this section (4.6), you’ll notice that the mechanism used to communicate is very different for these two systems. One relies on a combination of electrical and chemical signals while the other relies on chemical messenger molecules called hormones. 8. With consistent communication between systems, the body is able to maintain homeostasis. This is important because the body works best under very specific conditions. (4.7) a. What is homeostasis? b. Distinguish between positive feedback and negative feedback. c. Which of these helps maintain stability? d. Which of these feedback mechanisms is most important in the following: i. maintaining a stable body temperature? ii. Maintaining blood glucose levels within a narrow range? iii. Rapidly clotting blood and preventing blood loss? iv. Escalating contractions during childbirth? All the body systems work together to perform the functions of an independent being (or organism). Organize the following structures from least complex to most complex: tissues, molecules, organ systems, organs, cells, organism, organelles, atoms. Provide examples of each level in the column on the right. (see section 4.2 in the text)

1. What is the pumping organ of the system? 2. What are the J-shaped bag-like organs that act as a store for the food we eat? 3. What are the small finger-like projections found inside the small intestine that absorb digested food into the bloodstream? 4. What is the part of the organ system where most of the water is turned into solids that are passed out of the body? 5. Which organ is the control center of the body? 6. What is one of the two components of the Nervous System, consisting of the brain and spinal cord? 7. What is the other component of the Nervous System, made up of nerves throughout the body? 8. Which system is composed of bones and joints, forming the framework of the body? 9. What is one of the most important organs of the body, serving as protection against infection and injury? 10. What are the two layers of the skin, with the outer layer called the epidermis and the thicker part called the dermis?

Every cell in the human body needs a continuous supply of many specific nutrients for maintenance and physiological function. These nutrients are derived from the foods that we eat. Before the body is able to utilize nutrients for cellular function, foods must be broken down mechanically and chemically. The activities of the digestive system are finely coordinated and are integrated with the nervous, endocrine, and circulatory systems. Select all of the TRUE statements that reflect the complexity and intricacy of the digestive process: - The upper esophageal sphincter opens upon swallowing. At the bottom of the esophagus, the lower esophageal sphincter prevents reflux of the stomach contents. - The acidic pH environment of the small intestine is well-suited for pancreatic enzyme action. - The structural organs of the tract have their acid-base environments that allow specific enzymes to become active and then inactive. - Alterations in the pH environment of the small intestine would cause nutrient absorption. - Dietary fiber is important in maintaining stool consistency and regular bowel movements. - To remove the nutrient molecules rapidly and provide room for more to be absorbed, the flushing circulating blood in lymphatic vessels continuously washes the underside of the intestinal cells, carrying the absorbed nutrients away to the liver and other parts of the body. - The functions of the GI tract are an example of the body's ability to maintain homeostasis. - The process of food digestion begins in the mouth and proceeds all the way through the large intestine. - The secretions of digestion enter the tract at various points throughout the digestive process without the requirement for water.

00:01 Okay, so the first one is a, nervous tissue, and it consists of neurons and neuroglia that help the transmission of stimuli through signals called action potentials.
00:21 B is connective tissue, and it helps support and protect and connect.
00:26 It makes sense, right? there's multiple types, including fat or adipose tissue.
00:34 Muscle tissue helps with movement by contraction and relaxation of the muscles in the body.
00:43 There are three types of tissues or skeletal muscle.
00:46 One, voluntary, which are under our control.
00:50 Two, they're striated having dark and light bands.
00:54 Three, they are attached to the bones by tendons.
00:56 And four, they help with the movementing and posture.
01:00 There's also smooth muscle, which is mainly involuntary...
