Instructions

Play through this interactive game to learn about Multicellular Organisms and their Subsystems. Suitable for Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8.

Main Concepts

The skeletal system provides structural support and helps the human body move.
The organs in a body form the organ systems in a living organism.
The muscular system helps the human body move and carry out internal body functions.
In a human body, the digestive and excretory systems work together to absorb nutrients and remove wastes from the body.
The digestive system helps the body break down food, absorb nutrients, and remove wastes from the body.
Connective tissues support and give structure to the body of an organism.
Obtaining and processing nutrients for growth is a life function of an organism.
All living organisms contain one or more cells.
Organ systems work together to carry out the life functions of an organism.
Muscle tissues in an organism contract and relax to allow voluntary and involuntary movements.
In a human body, the nervous, muscular, and skeletal systems work together to allow for body movement.
Responding to stimuli is a life function of an organism.
Removal of wastes is a life function of an organism.
The nervous system responds to stimuli in the environment and controls voluntary and involuntary actions in the human body.
The type and arrangement of cells in a tissue determines its function.
Tissues form the organs in a living organism.
Multicellular organisms contain more than one cell.
Large numbers and types of cells compose the tissues in living things.

Discussion Questions

Before the Game

What are some of the most important parts of the body for it to function each day? How is our body able to move? How do organ systems rely on one another?

After the Game

What is the job of the brain versus the heart? Why are neurons important and what do they do? How do muscles work? What does the locomotor system do for you?
