Human Body Exploration Nutrients, Dissolved Gases, and Waste

Directions

Goal: Use the interactive to build and identify a body system that moves nutrients, dissolved gases, or waste.

  • Click to read about body parts & organs and figure out if they move or interact with your item.
  • Check off parts to build one body system.
  • Once you have built and identified one system:
    • Use the page with that body system in your handout to record the system's parts and main function.
    • Explore the zoomed-in images to add more detail about how the system interacts with blood.

Challenge:

How does get into blood? Where does go in the body?

You have built the XXX system!

Filters the blood to remove waste products and extra water from the body.

Take a look inside

About the Data and Representations
