Playing a sport Outside

Without a circulatory system our muscles and brain won't gain oxygen, which would lead to suffocation. For playing sports we need our brains to be working properly in order to think strategically and we need our muscles to be strong and fully working.

The circulatory system pumps oxygen and blood around
the body. This system also carries away CO2 (waste) from cells.

Breathing

When playing a sport and during
our regular lives, we automatically
breathe in oxygen and breathe out
carbon dioxide in order to stay alive.

The oxygen enters through the nose or mouth
and enters the lungs through a windpipe called
the Trachea. Our diaphragm expands to allow oxygen in and pushes out carbon dioxide

When playing a sport we are using more energy, causing up to use more oxygen and our respiratory system to accelerate.
(we breathe more faster and rapidly).

Muscular system contributes to playing a sport
because our muscles help us move!

People train their muscles by exercising and lifting weights to make them stronger.

Skeletal System

Makes up all the bones in our body, our framework.

Strong bones are needed to help an athlete be successful
while playing a sport. Without strong bones, the athlete wont
be able to play as well and can increase the risk of getting a fracture.

Involuntary Muscles

The smooth muscles that help us move
and fill in our bodies.
