This is an essay on the 12 major human body systems‚ which are skeletal‚ muscular‚ nervous‚ endocrine‚ reproductive‚ respiratory‚ excretory‚ circulatory‚ integumentary‚ lymphatic‚ digestive and the immune system. Each of these systems are important for the body and help the body in its own unique way. If one fails‚ it may cause a domino effect and cause the downfall of another system.

potentially lethal. Tetanus has a few stages of infection and lockjaw occurs later‚ indicative of a long period of infection. While this one cause may be famous it is not the most common by a longshot. Many people who develop lockjaw actually have oral or mandible (jaw) related illnesses and problems that result in the disorder. Inflammation of the soft tissue in the mouth is one of the leading causes of lockjaw. Many things can cause the soft tissue in the mouth to be inflamed such as over mastication (too

The predicted mating behaviour of Mediterranean Field Cricket (Gryllus bimaculatus) is that the male cricket that has been in solitary treatment‚ unable to interact with any other crickets will be more aggressive than the male cricket who was able to interact with other male crickets. Therefore‚ due to the isolation it is hypothesised that it will cause the cricket to be more aggressive toward the other male cricket he is introduced to when there is a female cricket within the enclosure.

Forensic pathology is used to determine the cause of death by examining post mortem blunt force trauma‚ lacerations‚ burns‚ the scene of the death‚ etc. Forensic anthropology can be used to determine sex by examining the pelvis‚ skull shape‚ and the mandible. Forensic anthropology can also be used for age determination. Forensic anthropology is used in the situation of skeletal remains and if forensic pathology has not revealed enough about the deceased‚ they will boil the body or use dermestid beetles
