Study Notes
Human Organ Systems
1. Integumentary System
- Protects the body and regulates body temperature
- Organs involved: skin, hair, and glands
2. Skeletal System
- Supports the body and allows movement
- Protects internal organs
- Organs involved: bones and cartilage
3. Muscular System
- Enables movement, maintains posture, and generates heat
- Organs involved: skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, and cardiac muscle
4. Digestive System
- Breaks down food into nutrients for absorption
- Organs involved: mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, pancreas, gallbladder, and liver
5. Circulatory System
- Transports oxygen, nutrients, and waste products throughout the body
- Organs involved: heart, blood vessels, and blood
6. Respiratory System
- Takes in oxygen and releases carbon dioxide
- Organs involved: nose, mouth, trachea, lungs, bronchi, bronchioles, and diaphragm
7. Nervous System
- Controls and coordinates body functions
- Receives and processes sensory information
- Organs involved: brain, nerves, and spinal cord
8. Excretory System
- Removes waste products from the body
- Organs involved: skin, kidneys, bladder, and ureters
9. Lymphatic System
- Protects the body from disease
- Transports fluids
- Organs involved: white blood cells, thymus, spleen, lymph nodes, and lymph vessels
10. Reproductive System
- Produces sex hormones and gametes
- Responsible for sexual reproduction
- Organs involved:
- Male: testes, penis, prostate, and urethra
- Female: ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina, cervix, and urethra
