MAJOR ORGANS OF THE BODY

Everything in the universe apart from
energy is made of matter therefore atoms  A group of tissues form
make up everything in the universe, different organs.

human body.

What’s In

Our body has five senses. We have the eyes to see, nose to
smell, ears to hear sounds, tongue to taste and lastly our hands
and skin to touch.
Can you name the
different organs in
your body? Look at
the puzzle, tell me
what organs you
found.
What is It

The human body contains vital organs for survival.

They are the brain, heart, lungs, kidneys, stomach,
intestine, bones and muscles. When most of these
organs are not functioning well or is damaged, the
organism is close to death if not given proper medical
treatment.
The Brain
The brain is located in the head and functions as the body’s
main control center.
It is able to receive, process, store, and retrieve information. It
is also the source of feelings, emotions, reactions, and moods.
The brain is protected by the skull.
The brain is connected to the spinal cord. It helps the nerves
send neurons to different parts of the body.
CEREBRUM – it is the largest part
of the brain that controls your
speech, reasoning, thinking,
sensations, memory, and emotions.
CEREBELLUM – controls your
muscles. It is responsible for the
proper coordination and movements
of your muscle.
BRAINSTEM – it connects the
cerebrum and cerebellum to the
spinal cord and it is responsible for
sending messages to and from your
brain.
 The HEART
The heart is a muscular organ about the
size of your fist. It is located in the middle
of the chest.
Its function is to keep the blood flowing to
all parts of the body. The process by which
blood transports the needed nutrients from
the heart and to the rest of body is called
circulation.
 The Lungs
The lungs is a pair of spongy, air
filled organs. It is located in either
side of the chest. It is the organ for
breathing. Air enters your nose and
flows to your throat until it reaches
the lungs. In the lungs, exchange of
gases takes place in the alveoli
The
Kidneys
 The Kidneys

Our Kidneys are bean-shaped organs

that are located at the back of the
abdomen on either side of the body.
Their function is to filter blood and
control water content of the body.
The kidneys contain nephron that
are the tiny tubes with a capsule on
one end.
The Stomach and Intestines

The stomach and intestines are parts of the

digestive system. They are organs for
digestion. In the stomach, the food is
partially digested. The stomach is a
muscular and large organ that is lined with
layers of muscles. The final digestion takes
place in the small intestine for the blood to
absorb nutrients.
 Liver
The liver is a large, meaty organ that sits
on the right side of the belly. Weighing
about 3 pounds, the liver is reddish-
brown in color and feels rubbery to the
touch. Normally you can't feel the liver,
because it's protected by the rib cage.
 Liver
The liver is the largest solid organ in the
body.
It removes toxins from the body's blood
supply, maintains healthy blood sugar
levels, regulates blood clotting, and
performs hundreds of other vital functions.
The liver also secretes bile that ends up
back in the intestines to help in digestion.
It is located beneath the rib cage in the right
upper abdomen.
 Liver
The liver has two large sections, called
the right and the left lobes. The
gallbladder sits under the liver, along
with parts of the pancreas and
intestines. The liver and these organs
work together to digest, absorb, and
process food.
The Bones and Muscles
The bones and muscles give our body its
shape and form. They enable us to walk,
run, write, and do many other movements.
They also support our body and enables us
to sit and stand.
Our bones and muscles also protect our
internal organs from damage. The skull
protects the brain while the rib cage
protects the heart and the lungs. The rib
cage and the muscles at the back protects
the kidneys.
