Study Notes
Skeletal System
- Skull bones, including the frontal and parietal bones, contribute to the structure of the human head.
- The sternum, ribs, and scapulae play vital roles in protection and support of the thoracic cavity.
Irregular Bones
- Irregular bones possess complex shapes and do not conform to general categories, impacting their functional roles in the skeletal system.
Muscular System
- Skeletal muscles enable voluntary movement and are directly attached to bones.
- Muscle tissue types include:
- Skeletal Muscle: Voluntary and striated, facilitating movement.
- Smooth Muscle: Involuntary and non-striated, found in internal organs.
- Cardiac Muscle: Specialized involuntary tissue found in the heart.
Respiratory System
- Lungs serve as the primary organs where gas exchange occurs, facilitating the intake of oxygen and expulsion of carbon dioxide.
- Alveoli: Tiny air sacs in the lungs, essential for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Digestive System
-
Accessory Organs: Supplement the digestive process and include essential components such as:
- Salivary Glands: Produce saliva that contains enzymes to initiate carbohydrate digestion.
Immune System
-
Lymphocytes: Crucial immune system cells that include:
- T cells: Attack infected cells directly.
- B cells: Responsible for producing antibodies to target pathogens.
