LTLT#5: Reaching Extremes-A Study of Human Body Systems and Homeostasis

No body system works in isolation. Each body system contributes to the homeostasis of the entire human body. Disruptions and extreme situations disrupt the functionality of the entire system. The well being of the person depends upon the well being of ALL the interacting body systems. Students will analyze scenarios and describe how each body system contributes to homeostasis in response to extreme situations.

The Task:

What effect do extreme situations have on the human body?

Culminating Essay Task: After reading informational texts, write a report that analyzes how each body system contributes to homeostasis in response to extreme situations. Use examples, and scenarios, to provide examples that back up, and support your analysis. What conclusion or implications can you draw? A bibliography is required.

Step 1: An EXTREME Scenario:

Write your choosen scenario here. It can be one that you choose from our scenario writing activity, or one that you choose to write yourself. But it has to be EXTREME!!!

Step 2: Write an INTRODUCTION for you report

An introduction tells the reader what your report is going to be about. At least 1 paragraph (8-10 sentences)

Answers the question: What effect do extreme sitatuions have on the human body?

c FOCUS: Addresses prompt appropriately and maintains a clear, steady focus.

c CONTENT: Accurately presents disciplinary content relevant to the prompt with sufficient explanations that demonstrate understanding.

Step 3: The BODY SYSTEMS functions

List, map or chart out the functions of EACH body systems. Use your graphic organizers, notebooks, and brains.

1. Respiratory 3. Circulatory 5. Nervous 7. Muscular

2. Digestive 4. Excretory 6. Skeletal 8. Skin
