Propose daily habits that support the whole body working well together.

Interpret simple diagrams showing interactions between systems (gas exchange plus circulation).

Identify factors that can damage multiple systems (smoking, inactivity, poor diet).

Explain that cells are the basic units of living things and that organs are made of many cells.

Explain how at least three systems work together during exercise (muscles use oxygen, heart pumps faster, lungs work harder).
