Grade 7 Week 11: Body Systems

We begin our own new unit on the Human Body.  We will be looking at one or two body systems each week for the next few weeks.  Important questions:

How do these systems work together to maintain homeostasis?
What is the function of the skeletal system?
What systems interact with the skeletal system to maintain homeostasis?



Contract Week 11 has you examine body systems in general or our first highlighted system, the Skeletal System.

the systems are sent messages from the brain through synapses and they adapt to the things that they need to do to mantain the right temperature or situation
