Study Notes
Circulatory System
- Red blood cells are responsible for transporting oxygen from the lungs to body tissues
- Oxygenated blood is carried away from the heart to various body tissues through arteries
- The force exerted by blood against the walls of arteries is called blood pressure
- Capillaries facilitate the exchange of oxygen, nutrients, and waste products between blood and tissues
- The heart consists of four chambers: left and right atria, and left and right ventricles
- The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide primarily occurs in the lungs
Digestive System
- The stomach is responsible for acid and enzyme secretion for protein digestion
- The small intestine is lined with epithelial tissue, which facilitates nutrient absorption
- The pancreas produces digestive enzymes (lipase, protease, amylase) and releases them into the small intestine to aid in digestion
Endocrine System
- The parathyroid gland regulates calcium levels in the blood
- The adrenal gland produces hormones like adrenaline and cortisol, involved in stress response
- The pituitary gland is often referred to as the 'master gland' and controls other endocrine glands throughout the body
- Melatonin is produced by the pineal gland, regulating sleep-wake cycles
Immune System
- Leukocytes (white blood cells) are produced in the bone marrow and contribute to the body's immune response
- Leukocytes aid in the body's defense against infection and disease
- The lymphatic system is responsible for the removal of pathogens and toxins from the body
Integumentary System
- The epidermis serves as a protective barrier against pathogens, UV radiation, and physical damage
- The skin provides immediate defense against infection and disease
Nervous System
- The optic nerve is responsible for the sense of sight
- The olfactory nerve is responsible for the sense of smell
- The auditory nerve is responsible for the sense of hearing
