25
what is the order digestion takes place
mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum and anus,
26
change food into bolus
mouth
27
moves food to stomach using peristalsis
esophagus
28
turns food into chyme
stomach
29
chemical digestion takes place and nutrient absorption
small intestine
30
absorbs water from undigested chyme
large intestine
31
control the release of solid wastes from the body
rectum and anus
32
what is the function of the urinary system
collects waste produced by the cells and removes them from the body; maintain homeostasis
33
how does the urinary system help maintain homeostasis
regulating pH, blood pressure, and eliminating urea and salts
34
filter blood of waster using nephrons
kidneys
35
tubes that carry urine from each kidney to the bladder
ureters
36
stores urine until ready to be released from the body
bladder
37
carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body
urethra
38
A network of capillaries and small tubes or tubules where filtration of the blood occurs in the kidney
nephron
39
what four body systems make up the excretory systems
urinary, digestive, muscular, respiratory, integumentary
40
removes liquid wastes
urinary system
41
removes excess salt and water wastes
integumentary system
42
removes undigested food waste,
digestive system
43
removes carbon dioxide and oxygen
respiratory system
44
Is for food and is connected to your stomach
esophagus
45
is your windpipe and is connected to your lungs
trachea
46
covers the trachea when eating/drinking to prevent unwanted items from going into the lungs
epiglottis
47
how does the urinary system maintain homeostasis
hormones controlled by the hypothalamus causes the tubules in the kidney to absorb more water from the blood
