    The muscular system allows for movement by contracting muscles and works with other systems. It works with the skeletal system to allow movement, the digestive system to push food through, the respiratory system to control breathing, and the circulatory system to pump blood. The endocrine system regulates body activities using hormones from glands like the hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, thymus, adrenals, pancreas, ovaries, and testes. It works with the circulatory system to transport hormones and the nervous system to maintain homeostasis. The immune system fights off foreign invaders in the body using white blood cells like T cells, B cells, and macrophages. It works with the circulatory system to transport white blood

    Systems
    Allows for Cardiac muscle 1. w/skeletal – allow
    Muscular movement by Smooth muscle movement
    contracting Skeletal muscle 2. w/digestive – allow
    tendons organs to contract to push
    food through
    3. w/respiratory –
    diaphragm controls
    breathing
    4. w/circulatory – controls
    pumping of blood (heart)
    5. w/nervous – controls all
    muscle contractions

    Regulates body Glands 1. w/circulatory –


    Endocrine activities using *Hypothalamus transports hormones to
    hormones. Slow *Pituitary target organs
    response, long *Thyroid 2. w/nervous – maintain
    lasting *Thymus homeostasis, hormone
    *Adrenal release
    *Pancreas 3. w/reproductive –
    *Ovaries controlled by hormones
    *Testes 4. w/skeletal – controls
    growth of bones
    Glands produce
    Hormones
    Fights off foreign White Blood 1. w/circulatory –
    Immune invaders in the Cells transports WBCs to
    body *T cells fight invaders
    *B cells 2. w/lymphatic – has lots
    -produce of WBCs to fight
    antibodies invaders, spleen filters
    *Macrophages bacteria/viruses out of
    blood
    Skin 3. w/skeletal – WBCs
    made in bone marrow
    4. w/integumentary –
    prevents invaders from
    getting in
