Instructions
Play through this interactive game to learn about Multicellular Organisms and their Subsystems. Suitable for Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8.
Main Concepts
Maintaining homeostasis is a life function of an organism.
In a human body, the digestive and excretory systems work together to absorb nutrients and remove wastes from the body.
The digestive system helps the body break down food, absorb nutrients, and remove wastes from the body.
The organs in a body form the organ systems in a living organism.
Connective tissues support and give structure to the body of an organism.
Obtaining and processing nutrients for growth is a life function of an organism.
All living organisms contain one or more cells.
Organ systems work together to carry out the life functions of an organism.
Muscle tissues in an organism contract and relax to allow voluntary and involuntary movements.
In a human body, the nervous, muscular, and skeletal systems work together to allow for body movement.
Responding to stimuli is a life function of an organism.
In a human body, the respiratory and circulatory system cycle gases between the environment and the blood stream.
Removal of wastes is a life function of an organism.
The circulatory system helps move blood, nutrients, and gases throughout the human body.
The respiratory system helps the human body take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide.
Nervous tissues in an organism detect and respond to stimuli.
The nervous system responds to stimuli in the environment and controls voluntary and involuntary actions in the human body.
The type and arrangement of cells in a tissue determines its function.
Maintaining physical protection is a life function of an organism.
Tissues form the organs in a living organism.
The muscular system helps the human body move and carry out internal body functions.
Multicellular organisms contain more than one cell.
Epithelial tissues in an organism cushion and protect the body of an organism.
The skeletal system provides structural support and helps the human body move.
Gas exchange is a life function of an organism.
The integumentary system provides protection to the human body and helps maintain homeostasis.
Large numbers and types of cells compose the tissues in living things.
Discussion Questions
Before the Game
How does our body work to keep up alive even when we are sleeping? What systems in the body do you know about? What is their job?
After the Game
Name three of the sub systems in our body and what the job of each is. Why are red blood cells so important for our body? How do the body's systems work together and why is that important?
