Project Checklist Did you include Head a brain that can open to show the inside as well as outside view the nasal cavity, mouth, pharynx (may be drawn on to paper) skull (with jaw) that lifts to reveal the structures listed above Torso carotid artery, jugular, ascending and descending aorta, inferior and superior vena cava, pulmonary arteries and veins, major arteries and veins to one arm, one leg, and both kidneys (vessels of the leg and arm may be drawn onto paper) heart that opens to reveal interior detail two lungs with one that opens to reveal interior detail trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli diaphragm esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, pancreas, liver, gallbladder, biliary duct two kidneys one of which opens to reveal interior structure, two ureters and a urethra Skeleton vertebrae (may be drawn onto body) bones of one arm humerus, radius, ulna, wrist bones, bones of hand (may be drawn onto paper) bones of one leg femur, tibia, fibula, ankle bones, bones of foot (may be drawn onto paper) (You will be building a leg with working hip and knee to add to the body.) one scapula (may be drawn onto paper) complete rib cage with sternum and clavicle; rib cage must open to reveal chest cavity Ligaments connecting bones at joints Muscles muscles of one leg and one arm (may be drawn onto paper) tendons Skin one flap of skin over a muscle; must show detail of skin layers (can be drawn) Internal Organs STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 2
Know the structures and functions of the body systems. You will need to be able to answer questions about the organs and organ systems. STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 3
Digestive System Know the parts of the digestive system and the function of each structure. STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 4
Surface Area Inside the Intestine STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 5
Respiratory System Why does the left lung have only two lobes, but the right lung has three lobes? How is the function of the diaphragm related to Boyle s Law (Pressure/Volume)? STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 6
Skin Functions of Skin STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 7
Urinary System Know the function of each structure. STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 8
Kidney Project Construction Hint: The kidneys are behind (posterior) to the digestive system and liver. Notice that they are protected by the back of the rib cage. What types of transport take place in the kidney? STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 9
Skeletal System Ligaments connect bone to bone at joints. What are the functions of the skeletal system? How does each type of bone relate to the function of the bone? STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 10
Types of Joints How does each type of hinge explain the movement of the skeleton at that joint type? Answer using examples. STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 11
Skull Side View How the skull should look on your human body model. Skull should lift to reveal the brain and structures of the respiratory and digestive systems that are part of the head. STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 12
Brain and Nervous System The nervous system connects to all other systems and controls body system functions. STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 13
Cardiovascular (Circulatory) What is the difference between a vein and an artery? How thick are capillaries? What is the main function of the cardiovascular (circulatory) system? What is the role of the heart in the cardiovascular system? STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 14
Heart What major blood vessel carries blood away from the heart to the body? What major blood vessel carries blood from the body to the heart? What chambers accept blood into the heart? What chambers pump blood from the heart? What vessel carries blood from the heart to the lungs? What vessel carries blood from the lungs to the heart? What do valves do? STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 15
Muscles What are the three types of muscle and where are they found? What is the function of the muscles? How are skeletal muscles connected to bone of the skeleton? STREAM Human Body Project 2014 2015 16
