1)The integumentary system supports and protects, regulates body temperature, makes chemicals and hormones, and acts as a sense organ.
organ: skin
2)The skeletal system supports and protects, makes movement easier (with joints), stores minerals, and makes blood cells.
organ: Bones, cartilage, tendons and ligaments
3)The muscular system brings about body movement, maintains posture, and produces heat.
organs: Skeletal muscles and smooth muscles throughout the body.
4)The nervous system allows a person to communicate with the environment and integrates and controls the body.
organs: Brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves.
5)The endocrine system secretes hormones into the blood that serve to communicate with, integrate, and control mechanisms.
organs: Many glands exist in the body that secrete endocrine hormones.
6)The circulatory system transports substances through the body and establishes immunity.
organs: Heart, blood vessels and blood.
7)The main role of the immune system is to destroy and remove invading microbes and viruses from the body. The lymphatic system also removes fat and excess fluids from the blood.
organs: Lymph, lymph nodes and vessels
8)The respiratory system exchanges oxygen from the air for the waste product carbon dioxide, which is eliminated from the body.
organs: Nose, trachea and lungs.
9)The digestive system breaks down food, absorbs nutrients, and excretes solid waste.
organs: Mouth, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestines
10)Excretory System: The main role of the excretory system is to filter out cellular wastes, toxins and excess water or nutrients from the circulatory system.
organs: Kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra.
11)The reproductive system produces sex cells, allows transfer of sex cells and fertilization to occur, permits development and birth of offspring, nourishes offspring, and produces sex hormones.
organs: Female: ovaries, oviducts, uterus, vagina and mammary glands.
Male: testes, seminal vesicles and penis.
