 Digestive System

Involves physical digestion, the

breakdown of food into smaller
particles which occur in the mouth
and stomach.

Chemical digestion is the

breakdown of large molecules
such as protein, starch and fats.
 Circulatory System

Transports blood from the

heart to the lungs, to
oxygenate blood.

Systematic circulation carries

oxygen – rich blood from
the heart to organs and
tissues.
 Respiratory System

Supplies body cells with

oxygen, carbon dioxide as
waste product.

The organs involve are

heart, blood vessels, blood
and lymph nodes.

 Excretory System

Removes waste from the

body.

The organs functioning are

the kidneys, urinary bladder,
ureter and urethra.
 Nervous System

Regulates behavior,
maintains homeostasis,
controls sensory and motor
functions.

Organs are spinal cord,

nerves and brain.
 Reproductive System

Involves the production of

new individuals.

Organs are testes and penis

in males and ovaries and
uterus in females.

 Endocrine System

It regulates, coordinates, and

controls a number of body
functions by secreting
chemicals into the blood
stream. These secretions help
control moods, growth and
development, and
metabolism,
 Muscular System

Made up of muscle tissue

that helps move the body
and move materials through
the body.
Muscles are builds of cells
and fibers that work in a
simple ways: they tighten up
and relax.
 Skeletal System

It provides the shape and form for

our bodies in addition to
supporting and protecting our
bodies, body movements,
producing blood cells, and storing
minerals.

Consists of bones, cartilage,

and joints

 Immune System

A collection of structures and

processes within the body-is to
protect against disease or other
potentially damaging foreign
bodies. Identifies a variety of
threats, such as bacteria, viruses,
parasites and distinguishes them
from the bodys own healthy
tissue.
 Integumentary System

Consists of the skin, hair, nails, and

sweat glands. It act as a barrier to
protect the body from the outside
world.

It also functions to retain body

fluids, protect against disease,
eliminate waste products, and
regulate body temperature.
This provides the shape and form for our bodies in
addition to supporting and protecting our bodies, allowing
bodily movement, producing blood cells, and storing
minerals.
