Constructing an Organ System Web

Example by Dr. Bryan T. Rogers

1. I’m going to start with the circulatory system.

Circulatory

2. Circulatory system has an interaction with the nervous system

3. I describe the interaction

1. Blood delivers oxygen to the brain

4. Nervous system has an interaction with the circulatory system

Circulatory

5. I describe the interaction

1. Blood delivers oxygen to the brain

2. Brain passes carbon dioxide to the blood

6. That reminds me that the respiratory system has interactions with the circulatory system

Respiratory

7. I describe those interactions

1. Blood delivers oxygen to the brain

2. Brain passes carbon dioxide to the blood

3. Lungs pass oxygen to the blood

4. Blood delivers carbon dioxide to the lungs

8. Let’s get more creative. The digestive system sends a signal to the nervous system

9. And the nervous system sends signals to skeletomuscular system

10. I describe those interactions

1. Blood delivers oxygen to the brain

2. Brain passes carbon dioxide to the blood

3. Lungs pass oxygen to the blood

4. Blood delivers carbon dioxide to the lungs

5. Stretch receptors transmit signals through sensory neurons to the brain that say “I’m hungry”

6. Brain send nerve impulses to the muscles in my arms and hand that indicate “make breakfast”

11. What should I do with this breakfast? Eat it.

12. The “breakfast”interactions

1. Blood delivers oxygen to the brain

2. Brain passes carbon dioxide to the blood

3. Lungs pass oxygen to the blood

4. Blood delivers carbon dioxide to the lungs

5. Stretch receptors transmit signals through sensory neurons to the brain that say “I’m hungry”

6. Brain send nerve impulses to the muscles in my arms and hand that indicate “make breakfast”

7. Arms and hands deliver food to mouth

8. Stomach passes glucose to the blood

13. I wonder where that glucose will go? And just like that I am building an organ system web.

15. It goes on and on

1. Blood delivers oxygen to the brain

2. Brain passes carbon dioxide to the blood

3. Lungs pass oxygen to the blood

4. Blood delivers carbon dioxide to the lungs

5. Stretch receptors transmit signals through sensory neurons to the brain that say “I’m hungry”

6. Brain send nerve impulses to the muscles in my arms and hand that indicate “make breakfast”

7. Arms and hands deliver food to mouth

8. Stomach passes glucose to the blood

9. Blood delivers glucose to the pancreas

10 In response to the glucose, pancreas puts insulin in the blood

11. Blood delivers insulin to the muscles which absorb glucose in response
