Study Notes

  • The human body relies on 11 major systems for survival.
  • The integumentary system, consisting of the skin, acts as a protective barrier, regulates temperature, and allows touch.
  • The skeletal system is composed of bones, ligaments, tendons, and joints, allowing movement and protection.
  • The muscular system, responsible for both internal and external movement, includes three major types: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscles.
  • The urinary system filters blood, producing urine and eliminating waste.
  • The respiratory system exchanges oxygen and carbon dioxide between the atmosphere and the blood, primarily through the lungs.
  • The digestive system ingests food, breaks it down for nutrient absorption, and eliminates waste.
  • The endocrine system communicates chemically through hormones, such as adrenaline.
  • The reproductive system produces offspring.
  • The lymphatic system filters lymph and blood, destroying foreign microorganisms.
  • The nervous system sends electrical signals to cause movement or regulate functions, composed of the central and peripheral nervous systems.
  • The circulatory system, made up of the heart, veins, and arteries, is responsible for pumping blood and transporting nutrients.
  • Kindness is encouraged as a positive act.
