Integumentary system consists of…
- Hair
- Skin
- Nails
Integumentary system
Forms the external body covering, and protects deeper tissues from injury. Synthesises vitamin D and houses cutaneous receptors and sweat and oil glands
Skeletal system consists of…
- Bones
2. Joints
Skeletal system
Protects and supports body organs, and provides a framework the muscles use to cause movement. Blood cells are formed within bones. Bones store minerals
Muscular system consists of…
- Skeletal muscles
Muscular system
Allow manipulation of the environment, locomotion and facial expression. Maintains posture and produces heat
Nervous system consists of…
- Brain
- Spinal cord
- Nerves
Nervous system
As the fast-acting control system of the body, it responds to internal and external changes by activating appropriate muscles and glands
Endocrine system consists of…
- Adrenal glands
- Ovary, Testis
- Pancreas
Endocrine system
Glands secrete hormones that regulate processes such as growth, reproduction and nutrient use (metabolism) by body cells
Cardiovascular system consists of…
- Heart
2. Blood vessels
Cardiovascular system
Blood vessels transport blood, which carries oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, waste, etc. The heart pumps blood
Lymphatic system consists of…
- Red bone marrow
- Thymus
- Lymph nodes
Lymphatic system
Picks up fluid leaked from blood vessels and returns it to blood. Disposes of debris in the lymphatic stream. Houses white blood cells involved in immunity. Immune response mounts the attack against foreign substances within the body
Respiratory system consists of…
- Nasal cavity
- Bronchus
- Lung
Respiratory system
Keeps blood constantly supplied with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide. The gaseous exchanges occur through the walls of the air sacs of the lungs
Digestive system consists of…
- Stomach
- Small intestine
- Large intestine
Digestive system
Breaks down food into absorbable units that enter the blood for distribution to body cells. Indigestible foodstuffs are eliminated as faeces
Urinary system consists of…
- Kidneys
- Urinary bladder
- Ureter
Urinary system
Eliminates nitrogenous wastes from the body. Regulates water and electrolytes, as well as acid-base balance of the blood
Reproductive system in males consists of…
- Prostate gland
- Penis
- Testis
Reproductive system in females consists of…
- Mammary glands
- Ovary
- Vagina
Reproductive systems
Overall function is production of offspring. Testes produce sperm and male sex hormone, and male ducts and glands aid in delivery of sperm to female reproductive tract. Ovaries produce eggs and female sex hormones. Remaining female structures serve as sites for fertilisation and fetal development. Mammary glands of female breasts produce milk and nourish the newborn
