Even more body systems

How about the muscular system? The human body and many other organisms have muscles. How could we categorize the different muscle types in the human body?

Exit Statement 3.25.16

Name the types of tissues

Name one of the types of tissues in the human body. 

Working together

What are two human body systems that work closely together 

What do you know ?

We are going to spend some time studying human body systems. Which systems do you know the most about and which do you want to learn more about. 

Human Body Systems

A group of cells working together makes a tissue. A group of tissues form an organ. One or more organs working together form an organ system.  Please name one organ system in the human body. 

Working together

Give an example of one part of a cell working with another part to keep the cell alive. 

Lewis and Clark

When Lewis and Clark were exploring the American continent did scientist know about cells?  You must support your claim with evidence.  

In the Plant

What do chloroplast do in plant cells? How does it relate to mitochondria ? 

What do they do ?
