3. What does the body use to regulate body functions?
Level#2: There are many different kinds of endocrine glands scattered throughout the human body. Endocrine glands produce chemical substances that are released directly into the bloodstream. These chemical substances are called hormones. Hormones regulate body functions. Different endocrine glands produce different hormones. Each gland has different functions. The thyroid gland releases a hormone that controls how quickly the body uses energy. The pancreas makes a hormone that controls the amount of sugar in the blood. The endocrine system plays an important part in maintaining a healthy body.

Endocrine glands produce chemical substances that are released directly in the bloodstream. These chemical substances are called hormones. Hormones regulate body functions. Different endocrine glands produce different hormones. Each gland has a different function. For example, the thyroid releases a hormone that controls how quickly the body uses energy. The pancreas makes a hormone that controls the amount of sugar in the blood. Endocrine glands release their hormones into the space that surrounds them. Then, the hormones pass into the blood vessels. The blood carries the hormones throughout the body to the correct cells.

Level#1
One important health skill is managing minor illness or injuries on your own. A common injury to muscles is a pulled muscle. A pulled muscle is actually small tears in the muscle. These tears cause pain and swelling.
1. What would be an example of an important health skill that you can do on your own?
2. What is a pulled muscle?
3. What are the two things that tears in a muscle cause?
Level#2
One important health skill is managing minor illness or injuries on your own. A common injury to muscles is a pulled muscle. A pulled muscle is actually small tears in the muscle. These tears cause pain and swelling. The amount of pain depends on the amount the muscle has torn. Some pulled muscles must be treated by a doctor. If you have a pulled muscle that causes severe pain and you cannot move the muscle at all, see a doctor immediately.
1. What is a pulled muscle and what determines how painful it is?
2. Who would you need to go to if you had a pulled muscle, and it was too painful to treat on your own?
3. What determines the amount of pain of a pulled muscle?
Level#3

These tears cause pain and swelling. The amount of pain depends on the amount the muscle has torn. Some pulled muscles must be treated by a doctor. If you have a pulled muscle that causes severe pain and you cannot move the muscle at all, see a doctor immediately. Most pulled muscles can be treated at home. There are a few steps you can follow to manage a pulled muscle on your own. First, you must take steps to limit the swelling by applying ice to the muscle for 15 to 20 minutes. Leave the ice off for 20 minutes before applying it again. You also need to protect the injured muscle by resting it. Wrapping an elastic bandage over the area will also help reduce the swelling. Elevating the injured muscle above the level of the heart will also help to reduce the swelling.
1. What is the first step to follow when you are treating a pulled muscle?
2. What should you do to protect the pulled muscle from further damage?
3. Besides icing, what can be done to reduce the swelling of the pulled muscle?

Getting exercise is the best thing you can do to keep your muscles healthy. Exercise pumps blood and oxygen all over your body making you feel alert and healthy. Exercise also makes your muscles strong and firm. A healthy exercise program begins and ends with stretching. Research shows that a lack of exercise causes teenagers to gain more weight than overeating does. Nutrition is also important for keeping muscles healthy. You should eat a variety of healthy foods. This means including meat or beans, fruits and vegetables, and breads and cereals in your diet.
1. What are the benefits of exercise for your muscles, what does it do, and how does it make you feel?
2. What should an exercise program include and why is it important for teenagers to exercise and eat a nutritious diet?

Level#1
Suppose you lost control of your muscles little by little. This is what happens to people with Muscular Dystrophy, also called MD. MD is a disease that causes the muscles to waste away over time. It is a rare disease. Most children that have MD end up in wheelchairs or on crutches. At this time, doctors do not know what causes MD, but they are working on treatments for it.
Level#2
Suppose you lost control of your muscles little by little. This is what happens to people with Muscular Dystrophy, also called MD. MD is a disease that causes the muscles to waste away over time. It is a rare disease. Most children that have MD end up in wheelchairs or on crutches. At this time, doctors do not know what causes MD, but they are working on treatments for it. The most common muscle problem is sore muscles. The soreness is caused by muscles not getting enough oxygen during exercise. Also, muscles have to get rid of wastes when exercising. By exercising regularly, your body learns to pump enough oxygen to your muscles. In time, the soreness disappears. Stretching after exercising, or "cooling down," will help lessen the pain of sore muscles.

3. What do doctors know about Muscular Dystrophy?

1. Is Muscular Dystrophy a common disease and what happens to most children who have it?

Stretching after exercising, or "cooling down," will help lessen the pain of sore muscles. Muscle strains are also common. A muscle is strained when it has been worked too hard. The muscle tissues are stretched and sometimes torn. To treat a strained muscle, get plenty of rest. Apply ice first. After 48 hours, put warm, wet towels on the muscles every chance you get.
1. Explain what MD is and what happens to children that have MD.
2. What can a person do to lessen the pain of muscle soreness?
3. Explain what a muscle strain is and what has happened to the muscle itself.
