Explain the role of the skeletal system in producing movement of the body
• The skeletal system allows movement at a joint/ the shape and type of the bones determine the amount of movement/ short bones enable finer controlled movements/ long bones enable gross movement

Explain the role of the skeletal and muscular systems in producing movement of the body
•The skeleton, muscles, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, joints, and other connective tissues are all part of the musculoskeletal system, which work together to provide the body with support, protection, and movement.

Explain how the heart works as a double pump
The heart functions as a double pump. Blood moves from the body into the right atrium, and then into the right ventricle where it gets pumped into the lungs. Blood gets oxygenated in the lungs, moves into the left atrium, and into the left ventricle

Explain how the circulatory system transports blood, glucose, oxygen and carbon dioxide around the body
Blood is transported around the body by the heart. Blood is pumped at high pressure away from the heart in arteries. It travels through networks of thin capillaries, where it can exchange materials with the tissues. It's then collected up and returne

Explain how the circulatory system regulates our body temperature
By changing the flow of blood through the skin, the body's temperature can be regulated to some extent. When you are overheated, the veins vasodilate which allows more blood flows through the capillaries in the skin, heating it up and allowing for mo
