    SC.6.L.14.5 Identify and investigate the general
    functions of the major systems of the human body
    (digestive, respiratory, circulatory, reproductive,
    excretory, immune, nervous, and musculoskeletal)
    and describe ways these systems interact with
    each other to maintain homeostasis.

    HE.6.C.1.8 Explain how body systems are
    impacted by hereditary factors and infectious
    agents.

    What is the digestive system?
    Cells use nutrients from food for energy, growth,
    maintenance, and repair.

    The digestive system breaks down food into
    nutrients that can be used as building materials
    that provide energy for cells.


    Unit 3 Lesson 4 The Digestive and Excretory Systems
    What are the two types of digestion?
    Mechanical digestion is the breaking, crushing,
    and mashing of food.

    Chemical digestion occurs when large molecules of
    food are broken down so that they can pass
    through the bloodstream.

    An enzyme is a chemical that breaks down large
    molecules into smaller molecules.

    What are the parts of the digestive
    system?
    The mouth is where mechanical and chemical
    digestion begins. Saliva helps to break down food.

    Food moves through the throat into a long tube
    called the esophagus.

    Muscle contractions called peristalsis move the
    food to the stomach.

    Unit 3 Lesson 4 The Digestive and Excretory Systems
    What are the parts of the digestive
    system?
    The stomach is a muscular bag that crushes food
    and contains acids and enzymes for killing
    bacteria and breaking down proteins.

    Chyme is the mushy mix of food that passes from
    the stomach to the small intestines.
    Copyright Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company
    Unit 3 Lesson 4 The Digestive and Excretory Systems
    What are the parts of the digestive
    system?
    The small intestine is a muscular tube where
    most chemical digestion takes place and most
    nutrients are absorbed.

    In the large intestine, water and nutrients are
    absorbed, leaving waste.

    Unit 3 Lesson 4 The Digestive and Excretory Systems
    What are the parts of the digestive
    system?
    Identify and describe the parts of the digestive
    system.

    Unit 3 Lesson 4 The Digestive and Excretory Systems
    Where are nutrients absorbed?
    The pancreas makes fluids that break down
    proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and nucleic acids.

    The liver makes and releases a mixture called bile
    that is stored in the gall bladder.

    Bile breaks up large fat droplets.

    Unit 3 Lesson 4 The Digestive and Excretory Systems
    Where are nutrients absorbed?
    The walls of the small intestine have many folds
    that increase the surface area, allowing more
    room for nutrients to be absorbed.

    Each fold has villi, which are covered with
    microvilli, that absorb more nutrients.
    Copyright Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company
    Unit 3 Lesson 4 The Digestive and Excretory Systems
    Where are nutrients absorbed?
    The large intestine removes water, absorbs
    vitamins, and turns food into waste called feces.

    Bacteria live in the large intestine to help break
    down foods the body cannot use or digest.

    The rectum is the end of the large intestine that
    stores feces until they can be expelled by the anus.

    Toxic Waste!
    Copyright Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company
    What are the functions of the excretory
    system?
    Waste in the body would become toxic without a
    method to eliminate it.

    The excretory system eliminates cellular wastes
    from the body through the lungs, skin, kidneys,
    and digestive system.


    Unit 3 Lesson 4 The Digestive and Excretory Systems
    What are the functions of the excretory
    system?
    Excess salts are released through the skin as you
    sweat.

    The lungs release carbon dioxide and water as you
    exhale.

    The kidneys and the digestive system remove
    cellular waste.

    What organs are in the urinary system?
    A kidney is one of a pair of organs that remove
    waste from the blood.

    Nephrons are structures in the kidneys where
    fluid is filtered from the blood.

    Water and wastes filtered from the blood form a
    liquid called urine.


    Unit 3 Lesson 4 The Digestive and Excretory Systems
    What organs are in the urinary system?
    Urine travels from the kidneys, through the
    ureters, to the bladder.

    The bladder is a saclike organ that stores urine.

    Urine exits the bladder through a tube called the
    urethra.

    What organs are in the urinary system?
    How does a kidney work to eliminate wastes from
    the blood?
    Copyright Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company
    Unit 3 Lesson 4 The Digestive and Excretory Systems
    How does the urinary system maintain
    homeostasis?
    Cells need a certain level of salt and water to
    maintain homeostasis.

    Chemical messengers called hormones signal the
    kidneys to filter more or less water and salt as
    needed.
