Circulatory and Respiratory Study Guide
A few more resources:
Study Guide
Standards Assessed:
In multicellular organisms, the body is a system of multiple interacting subsystems. These subsystems are groups of cells that work together to form tissues and organs that are specialized for particular body functions. (MS-LS1-3)
Topics Covered:
1. Structures and functions of the Circulatory System - Cover sheet and readings
2. Structures and functions of the Respiratory System - Cover sheet and readings
3. How do the circulatory and respiratory system work together to perform the gas exchange? - Work sheets, constructed responses, interactive links.
4. How do we breathe? - class simulation, worksheets, interactive links
5. How does the blood flow in the heart? - performance assessment, video on blog, worksheet
6. How do molecules of oxygen flow in the respiratory system from the outside air to the alveoli? - reading, questions.
