    Study Notes

    Circulatory System

    • Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the rest of the body.

    Respiratory System

    • The primary function of the respiratory system is to bring oxygen into the body and remove carbon dioxide.

    Circulatory System

    • Hemoglobin in red blood cells carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and returns carbon dioxide from the tissues to the lungs.

    Endocrine System

    • The pancreas is responsible for the production of insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels.

    Nervous System

    • The cerebellum coordinates muscle movements, maintains posture, and regulates balance and equilibrium.

    Nervous System

    • The medulla oblongata, the lower part of the brainstem, regulates involuntary functions such as breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure.
