organs
a structure composed of two or more tissue types which perform essential physiological functions
physiology
the study of various body functions under various conditions
system
a group of organs that are directly related to each other functionally
skin, hair, and nails
what parts are include in the integumentary system?
epidermis, dermis
what 2 things make up the skin
Prevents invasion of bacteria, and Aids in regulation of body temperature and excretion
what are the 2 functions of the integumentary system?
bone, cartilage, ligament
what are the 3 parts of the skeletal system?
cartilage
soft, flexible bone tissue
ligament
connects bone to bone
Provides support of attachment for muscles, Protects internal organs, Gives body shape, Provides movement along with muscles and nervous system, Production of blood cells
what are the 5 functions of the skeletal system?
Cardiac muscle, Smooth/visceral muscle, Striated/skeletal muscle
what types of muscles are found in the muscular system?
voluntary
you control the muscle
involuntary
muscle works automatically
tendon
connects muscle to bone
body contractions/movement
what is the function of the muscular system?
brain, spinal cord, sensory receptors, conduction pathways, and interpretation centers
what parts are located in the nervous system?
Exteroceptors
external stimuli/5 senses
Interoceptors
internal stimuli
conduction pathways
carry impulses from receptors to brain
Located in brain and receives messages, sorts them to produce a response
what do the interpretation centers do?
to continuously have body adjust to internal and external environmental changes/stimuli
what is the function of the nervous system?
heart, arteries, veins, capillaries, spleen and blood
what are the parts of the cardiovascular system?
heart
behind the sternum, between the lungs, pumps the blood
arteries
large blood vessel, goes away from the heart
veins
large blood vessel, carry blood back to the heart
capillaries
microscopic blood vessels, carry blood both ways
produces RBCs, removal of fragile RBCs, source of lymphocytes (lymph cells), source of antibodies (immunities)
what does the spleen do?
Transportation of various material throughout the body, defends against bacteria, removal of waste
what are the 3 functions of the cardiovascular system?
nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi
what are the 5 parts of the conducting portion in order?
nose and mouth
what two parts make up the nasal cavity?
conducting portion and respiratory portion
what are the 2 parts of the respiratory system?
bronchioles and alveoli
what is included in the respiratory portion?
Alveoli
the actual exchange of O-2 and CO-2
exchange of 0-2 and CO-2 between body cells and blood
what is the function of the respiratory system?
Mouth, Esophagus, Stomach, Small intestine, Large intestine/colon, Rectum
what are the major organs in the digestive system?
Salivary glands, Liver, Gall bladder, Pancreas
what are the accessory glands of the digestive system?
Ingestion of food, Digestion of food into the molecules, Absorption of food molecules from intestines into blood and lymphatic systems, Elimination of solid waste material
what are the 4 functions of the digestive system?
lymph, lymph vessels, lymph nodes
what parts are in the lymphatic system?
lymph tissue
what is a tissue fluid that are produced by lymph nodes?
lymph vessels
what is the passageway for lymph and runs parallel to blood vessels?
lymph nodes
what is made up of the nodules of lymphoidal tissue, Phagocytic cells, and (RES)
Reticuloendothelial system (RES)
what is the diverse collection of lymphoidal tissue/nodes
and is found in thymus gland, liver, spleen, tonsils, adenoids, appendix, and Peyer's patches?
Returns various tissue fluids from the body to blood, absorbs fat from intestines to blood, fights against infection
what are the 3 functions of the lymphatic system?
kidneys, uterers, urinary bladder, urethra
what are the parts of the urinary system?
kidney
what filters blood?
ureters
what receives urine from kidney?
urine from the kidney
What is received from the ureters
urethra
what eliminates urine from the system?
removal of waste material from the blood
what is the function of the urinary system?
hormones and endocrine glands
what are the parts of the endocrine system?
Produced and secreted by endocrine glands, secreted into the bloodstream, causes many physiological functions to take place
what are hormones?
Regulation of growth process, Maturation of the ovaries and testes and, Regulation of enzyme reactions to break down food
what are the 3 functions of the endocrine system?
ova, ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina
what are the female parts of the reproductive system?
ova
what are the female reproductive cells?
ovaries
what contains the ovum?
fallopian tubes
what transports the egg from the ovaries to the uterus
uterus
where fetus develops during pregnancy
vagina
birth canal
Spermatozoa, testes, Epididymus, vas deferens, urethra, penis
what are the male parts of the reproductive system?
spermatozoa
male reproductive cells
testes
produces and secretes sperms
epididymus
receives sperm from testes and stores it
vas deferens
receives sperm from the epididymus and transforms it to the urethra
urethra
receives semen from vas deferens/seminal duct and Elimination of sperm/semen from system
penis
muscular tissue surrounding urethra
continuation of the human species
what is the function of the reproductive system?
Pituitary Glands, Thyroid Glands, Parathyroid Glands, Thymus Glands, Adrenal Glands, Pancreas, Pineal Gland, Ovaries, Testes, Placenta, Stomach lining, Hypothalmus gland
Endocrine Glands
