Study Notes

Cardiovascular System

  • Comprises blood, heart, and blood vessels
  • Pumps blood throughout the body
  • Responsible for carrying oxygen and nutrients to cells and removing waste products
  • Blood components help defend against disease and repair damages

Digestive System

  • Consists of mouth, pharynx, oesophagus, stomach, small and large intestine, anus, and accessory organs
  • Accessory organs include salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas
  • Performs physical and chemical breakdown of food
  • Absorbs nutrients into the bloodstream
  • Eliminates solid wastes from the body

Integumentary System

  • Comprises skin and its structures such as hair, nails, sweat glands, and oil glands
  • Protects the body from external damage
  • Regulates body temperature
  • Eliminates some waste products through sweating
  • Helps in the production of Vitamin D
  • Detects sensations such as touch, pressure, and temperature

Lymphatic System and Immunology

  • Consists of lymphatic fluid and vessels, spleen, thymus, lymph nodes, and tonsils
  • Plays a crucial role in immune function and defending against disease
