SKELETAL SYSTEM

Skeletal system: Includes all of the bones and joints in the body. The skeleton acts as a scaffold by providing support and protection for the soft tissues that make up the rest of the body. The skeletal system also provides attachment points for muscles to allow movements at the joints. Important parts include the skull; composed of 22 bones fused together, the verterbrae; 26 verterbrae form the verterbral column of the human body, sternum; thin bone located along the midline of the anterior side of the thoracic region of the skeleton and ribs; 12 parts of the ribs that are together with the sternum form the ribcage of the thoracic region.

The muscular system is responsible for the movement of the human body. Attached to the bones of the skeletal system are about 700 named muscles that make up roughly half of a person’s body weight. Each of these muscles is a discrete organ constructed of skeletal muscle tissue, blood vessels, tendons, and nerves. Muscle tissue is also found inside of the heart, digestive organs, and blood vessels. In these organs, muscles serve to move substances throughout the body.

CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM
The cardiovascular system consists of the heart, blood vessels, and the approximately 5 liters of blood that the blood vessels transport. Responsible for transporting oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and cellular waste products throughout the body

RESPIRATORY SYSTEM

The respiratory system provides oxygen to the body’s cells while removing carbon dioxide, a waste product that can be lethal if allowed to accumulate. There are 3 major parts of the respiratory system: the airway, the lungs, and the muscles of respiration. The airway, which includes the nose, mouth, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles, carries air between the lungs and the body’s exterior. The lungs act as the functional units of the respiratory system by passing oxygen into the body and carbon dioxide out of the body.

The immune and lymphatic systems are two closely related organ systems that share several organs and physiological functions. The immune system is our body’s defense system against infectious pathogenic viruses, bacteria, and fungi as well as parasitic animals and protists. The immune system works to keep these harmful agents out of the body and attacks those that manage to enter.
The lymphatic system is a system of capillaries, vessels, nodes and other organs that transport a fluid called lymph from the tissues as it returns to the bloodstream. The lymphatic tissue of these organs filters and cleans the lymph of any debris and abnormal cells.

FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM

The female reproductive system includes the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina, vulva, mammary glands and breasts. These organs are involved in the production and transportation of gametes and the production of sex hormones. The ovaries produce female sex hormones (eggs), female gametes. The Fallopian tubes swipe over the outside of the ovaries to pick up released ova and send them to the infundibulum for transport to the uterus. The uterus is a hollow muscle. It's connected to the two Fallopian tubes and to the vagina. The uterus is also called a womb as it surrounds the developing fetus durning pregnancy

MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
The male reproductive system includes the scrotum, testes, spermatic ducts, sex glands, and penis. These organs work together to produce sperm, the male gamete, and the other components of semen. The scrotum is a sac like organ to house the testies. The 2 testes are responsible for the production of sperm. The duck defense is a muscular tube that carries sperm superiority from the epididymis into the abdominal cavity to the ejaculatory duct.

THE URINARY SYSTEM

The urinary system consist of the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder and uretha. The kidneys filter the blood to remove waste and produce urine. The ureters, urinary bladder and urethra together form the urinary tract, which drains urine from the kidneys store it then release it durning urination.
