Description

Doctor Klone is a renowned genius, but he has a problem: there are too many experiments to do, and only one of him! But that is about to change with his next experiment: making a clone of himself to help him move science forward. Help Dr. Klone in his journey through all the subsystems of the human organism, each with its own tissues, organs, and functions, and recreate a copy of the doctor step by step. Double the science, double the fun!

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 reproductive system helps humans to reproduce.

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.

The organs in a body form the organ systems in a living organism.

Obtaining and processing nutrients for growth is a life function of an organism.

All living organisms contain one or more cells.

Reproduction is a life function of an organism.

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.

In a human body, the respiratory and circulatory system cycle gases between the environment and the blood stream.

Removal of wastes is a life function of an organism.

The circulatory system helps move blood, nutrients, and gases throughout the human body.

The respiratory system helps the human body take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide.

Large numbers and types of cells compose the tissues in living things.

The integumentary system provides protection to the human body and helps maintain homeostasis.

Gas exchange is a life function of an organism.

The skeletal system provides structural support and helps the human body move.

Multicellular organisms contain more than one cell.

The muscular system helps the human body move and carry out internal body functions.

Tissues form the organs in a living organism.

The endocrine system releases hormones into the bloodstream that help a human carry out life functions.

Maintaining physical protection is a life function of an organism.

The type and arrangement of cells in a tissue determines its function.

The nervous system responds to stimuli in the environment and controls voluntary and involuntary actions in the human body.

Nervous tissues in an organism detect and respond to stimuli.

Connective tissues support and give structure to the body of an organism.

Maintaining homeostasis is a life function of an organism.

Epithelial tissues in an organism cushion and protect the body of an organism.

Discussion Questions

Before the Game

What are some body systems that you know about that help us survive? Why is the brain so important in the body? What else does the body have to protect it?

After the Game

Name three systems that you learned about and explain how they work. How are tissues, organs, and systems related? Explain. Why is temperature important in the body, and how did you regulate it in the game?
