meiosis
digestive system; manufactures insulin
pancreas
produces hormones, controls body's metabolic rate, heart and digestive function, muscle control, and brain development
thyroid
filters blood coming from the digestive tract
liver
produce, store, secrete hormones carried by the circulatory system
endocrine system
part of the urinary tract, filters blood, removes waste and excess water, makes urine
kidney
Newton's 3rd Law
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
Newton's 2nd Law
Force = mass x acceleration
adds new rock to the surface of the Earth
