Body Systems There are 10 body systems‚ one of them is the Integumentary (skin). It is composed of hair‚ skin‚ nails‚ sense receptions and oil glands. Its functionis to protect from outside‚ to regulate the body temperature‚ to make synthesis of hormones & chemicals and is used as a sense organ. Another one is the Skeletal System (bones). It is made of about 206 bones‚ that are divided in tho categories: axial bones (in the body by itself) and apendicular bones (arms & legs). We have Joints too

The Nervous System is the system of cells‚ tissues‚ and organs that regulates the body’s responses to internal and external stimuli. In vertebrates it consists of the brain‚ spinal cord‚ nerves‚ ganglia‚ and parts of the receptor and effector organs. Your nervous system is composed of the central nervous system‚ the cranial nerves‚ and the peripheral nerves. The brain and spinal cord together form the central nervous system. The cranial nerves connect the brain to the head. The four groups of nerves

life that we enjoy. When we go to the workplace there is a system and a chain of command with which the offices are functioning‚ just like that our bodies are also a complex group of network that is constantly in communication with one another to keep our bodies functioning. There are multiple systems and each one is extremely important in its role but one of the most important systems found within the human bodies is the cardiovascular system. It pumps blood to each portion of our body‚ which

Similarities and differences in the structure and function of the three types of muscle tissue and where they are found in the body: Skeletal – single‚ very long‚ cylindrical‚ multinucleated cells with very obvious striations‚ voluntary via nervous system controls‚ attach to bones for movement‚ slow to fast contractions Cardiac – branching chains of cells‚ uninucleated‚ striated‚ involuntary‚ found only in the heart‚ slow rhythmic contractions Smooth – single‚ fusiform‚ uninucleated‚ no striations

The endocrine system refers to the different organs of the body that are responsible for secreting hormones that affect bodily processes. Better known for their ability to process waste‚ the kidneys are responsible for the secretion of four different hormones: rennin‚ calcitriol‚ erythropoietin and thrombopoietin These chemicals released by the kidneys affect a wide range of bodily processes dealing with the circulatory and skeletal systems. Understanding the endocrine functions of the

Musculoskeletal: The human musculoskeletal system or the locomotor system is made from cartilage‚ bones‚ ligaments‚ tendons and muscles. This system give humans the ability to move using their muscular and skeletal systems. The musculoskeletal system is being controlled by the nervous system to provide voluntary movements. The skeletal system and the muscle system maintain to posture and produce heat for the body. Increased blood supply: As people start to exercise the muscles will start wanting

The musculoskeletal system helps the body by giving it shape and form. Without bones and muscles‚ a human would not be able to live very long because the bones protect the organs and the muscles help the body move. Although many people go through their whole life without having a single problem with this system‚ there are many diseases that make everyday life seem like just another hurdle they have to get over. A muscle disease is Central Core Disease (CDC). CDC is a rare genetic disease from birth

Nervous System Functions of the Nervous System 1. Detect changes and feel sensations 2. Initiate responses to changes 3. Organize and store information Divisions 1. Central Nervous System – brain and spinal cord 2. Peripheral Nervous System – cranial nerves and spinal nerves (relays info to/from the CNS) - Autonomic Nervous System Nerve Tissue – neurons (nerve fibers) and specialized cells (Schwann‚ neuroglia) 1.
