Why did we choose this problem?
We chose it because we believe that the astronauts should have a better life style sense they are going to live on space for the rest of their life's . They need to be healthy in order to live longer. Fresh food is better for them than packaged food because it helps their digestive system.
Why is it a problem?
It's a problem because sense the astronauts will be on Mars it will be different than on earth and they should have about the same things as on earth. They should have aces to fresh food and not just packaged food and also have aces to oxygen without a space suit.
Body Systems Involved
- Digestive - If you eat more greens it is good for your digestive system because it gives more nutrients to your body
- Excretory - The excretory system removes unnecessary materials from the body, to help maintain homeostasis
- Circulatory - Blood is pumped trough the upper torso and head, causing plenty of swelling of the chest and head
- Musculoskeletal - Without gravity, muscles waste away, and bones become smaller and weaker
- Cardiovascular - The heart doesn't have to to work as hard in the micro gravity
- Nervous - Radiation damages the (NS) which may lead to bad behavior and neurological disorders
