Grade 7 Science Worksheet – Set 3 (Human Body Systems)
Part A: Reading Passage
The human body is made up of different systems that work together to keep us alive.
The circulatory system moves blood through the body, carrying oxygen and nutrients.
The respiratory system brings oxygen into the lungs and removes carbon dioxide. The
digestive system breaks down food into nutrients that the body can use. Each system
has a special function, and together they maintain health and balance.
Part B: Vocabulary in Context
Match each highlighted word to its correct meaning.
1. Systems → _____
2. Circulatory → _____
3. Respiratory → _____
4. Digestive → _____
5. Function → _____
a) Groups of organs working together b) Moves blood through the body c) Brings oxygen
into the body d) Breaks down food into nutrients e) Purpose or role
Part C: Application Questions
6. Why does the circulatory system need the respiratory system?
7. How does the digestive system help the body?
8. What might happen if one system stopped working?
9. Give one example of how systems work together.
10. Explain why each system has a unique function.
Part D: Critical Thinking
11. Imagine if the respiratory system stopped working for a few minutes. Write 3–4
sentences describing what would happen to the body.
12. Suggest one way to keep the digestive system healthy.
Answer Key (Teacher Copy)
Part B: 1 → a 2 → b 3 → c 4 → d 5 → e
Part C (sample answers):
6. The circulatory system needs oxygen from the respiratory system to deliver to
cells.
7. It provides nutrients from food for energy and growth.
8. The body would not survive because systems depend on each other.
9. Example: The respiratory system provides oxygen, which the circulatory system
carries to cells.
10. Each system has a specific job that supports overall health.
Part D (sample answers):
11. Without breathing, oxygen would not reach the blood, cells would be deprived,
and the body could collapse.
12. Eat healthy foods, drink water, and avoid overeating.
