Circulatory and Respiratory Study Guide

A few more resources:


Study Guide

Standards Assessed:

In multicellular organisms, the body is a system of multiple interacting subsystems. These subsystems are groups of cells that work together to form tissues and organs that are specialized for particular body functions. (MS-LS1-3)

Topics Covered:
1. Structures and functions of the Circulatory System - Cover sheet and readings

2. Structures and functions of the Respiratory System - Cover sheet and readings

3. How do the circulatory and respiratory system work together to perform the gas exchange? - Work sheets, constructed responses, interactive links.

4. How do we breathe? - class simulation, worksheets, interactive links

5. How does the blood flow in the heart? - performance assessment, video on blog, worksheet

6. How do molecules of oxygen flow in the respiratory system from the outside air to the alveoli? - reading, questions.

Helpful Videos:
Gas Exchange Made Easy
The Heart Song

Cell Energy Review


Comparing Photosynthesis and Respiration 


This is a great review for Friday's Quiz!

Here is a helpful video on the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration:


Here is a video on the processes of photosynthesis. Most of the stuff is "Want to know" rather than "Need to know". If you feel like you've got everything down and want to see the next level check it out! Hank Green is cool, but why does everyone talk so fast?


Be sure to spend some quality, focused time studying each night!
