Notes
made by Marisa

	Circulatory System The circulatory system carries oxygen (hemoglobin in red blood cells carries O2) and nutrients to the cells all over the body and carries carbon dioxide and waste away from the cells.
	Respiratory System The respiratory system brings oxygen (O2) into the body and sends carbon dioxide (CO2) out of the body.
	Digestive System The digestive system breaks down food and adsorbs nutrients for the body. It is aided by bacteria that live in the intestines and help break down complex nutrients.
	Nervous System The nervous system collects and stores information from inside and outside the body. It controls the body's actions and its responses to any changes. All five senses are part  of the nervous system.
	Skeletal System The skeletal system gives your body structure and protects your internal organs. It stores minerals and produces blood cells in the bone marrow.
	Muscular System The muscular system is responsible for all of the body's movements, both voluntary (jumping, chewing, walking, etc.) and involuntary (breathing, stomach churning, etc.).
	Endocrine System The endocrine system produces chemical messengers called hormones that help maintain homeostasis and control growth and development.
	Integumentary System The integumentary system is your skin. It serves as a protective barrier around your body preventing water loss and helping to control body temperature.
	Immune System The immune system is made of antibodies and white blood cells that protect your body from infection. HIV attacks a special type of white blood cell known as the Helper T cell.
	Reproductive System The reproductive system produces the gamete cells required for sexual reproduction. The male cells are known as sperm and the female gamete cells are known as eggs.
	Excretory System The excretory system removes waste from the body and helps the body maintains homeostasis by preventing the buildup of excess fluid and solid material within the body.

Even though I took HTML and Dreamweaver, this was so tedious!
Hope this helps!

Glogster: United States

I made this glog for history class. My partner decide she wanted to make the poster of Venezuela; either way I don't care, as long as I keep my 100% in this class.

Catcher in the Rye Collage

This was one of my assignments for english class. We had to made a collage and describe what it represents. Here is what I said
"The dark Shadow means Holden is lonelyness and depression, the gun in his hand means he emotionally unstable. The red bubbly background represents his anger/violent outbursts, while the wheat is rye. The geese represents his child-like behavior. The hat is exaggeration."

Washington D.C. pictures...that took me forever to put up.
