    Study Notes

    Organ Systems

    • The human body has 11 organ systems that work together
    • All organ systems are constructed from smaller parts called tissues
    • These tissues are made of similar cells that have specialized functions
    • Different organ systems interact to maintain internal stability aka homeostasis
