Mink Body Systems

• Homeostasis regulation of an organism's internal
  environment to maintain conditions needed for
  life regardless of external environment

Neck Thoracic Cavity

Respiratory System

• Continuous exchange of gases for the body
• Increases respirations during exercise to allow
  more oxygen into blood stream
• Gets rid of carbon dioxide waste from blood stream

7
Cardiovascular System

• Continuous and controlled movement of blood
  through all systems that carries nutrients and
  essential materials for life as waste products
  are removed
• Pumps at a constant rate to keep blood pressure
  normal
• Heart pumps faster to bring more oxygen to
  muscles when exercising

Digestive System

• Breaks down food and absorbs nutrients that can
  be used by the body
• Liver releases glucose in between eating meals to
  keep blood glucose levels constant
• Pancreas releases hormones to regulate glucose
  levels in blood
• Small intestine absorbs nutrients from food
  specifically glucose for cellular respiration

32
Excretory System

• Gets rid of waste
• Sweat helps to cool body during exercise
• Kidneys filter blood to remove waste products

33
Nervous System

• Homeostasis-controls and regulates other parts of
  the body
• Body temperature starts to drop then nervous
  system increases body temperature
• Regulates heart rate and respirations
