Study Notes
Body Systems and Functions
- Integumentary System: Composed of skin, hair, nails, and glands. Function includes protection, temperature regulation, and sensory reception.
- Skeletal System: Composed of bones, cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. Functions include support, movement, protection, and mineral storage.
- Muscular System: Composed of smooth, skeletal, and cardiac muscles. Functions include movement, posture, and heat generation.
- Nervous System: Composed of brain, spinal cord, and nerves. Functions include coordination, control, sensory perception, and motor control.
- Cardiovascular System: Composed of heart, blood vessels, and blood. Function includes oxygen and nutrient transport, waste removal, and temperature/pH regulation.
- Lymphatic System: Composed of lymph nodes, lymph vessels, spleen, and thymus. Function includes immunity, fluid balance, and fatty acid transport.
- Respiratory System: Composed of lungs, trachea, bronchi, and diaphragm. Function includes oxygen/carbon dioxide exchange.
- Digestive System: Composed of mouth, esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas. Function includes food breakdown, nutrient absorption, and waste elimination.
- Urinary System: Composed of kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. Function includes waste removal, fluid/electrolyte balance, and blood pressure regulation.
- Endocrine System: Composed of glands (pituitary, thyroid, adrenal, and reproductive). Function includes hormone production for growth, metabolism, reproduction, and development.
- Reproductive System: Composed of ovaries, uterus, fallopian tubes, testes, seminal vesicles, and prostate. Function includes gamete production for reproduction.
Heredity, Inheritance, and Variation
- Heredity: The passing of physical or mental traits from one generation to the next through genes. Examples include eye color or height.
- Inheritance: The process by which genetic information is passed from parents to offspring. This includes how exact genetic information is transferred.
- Variation of Traits: Differences in traits among individuals in a population, influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Examples include variation in height due to genes and nutrition, with heritability being the degree genetic factors contribute to phenotypic variation.
The 7E Learning Cycle Model
- Developed by Arthur Eisenkraft (2003), the model is based on inquiry-based learning and constructivist theory.
- Stages include Elicit (prior knowledge), Engage (stimulate curiosity), Explore (hands-on activities), Explain (clarify concepts), Elaborate (apply learning), Evaluate (assess knowledge), and Extend (real-world application).
