• 11 body systems
Organs:
Organs:
Heart
Arteries
Veins
Organs:
Organs:
Bones
Joints
Ligaments
I will be able to analyse how body systems function
3. Nervous System
• Coordinates voluntary and involuntary actions.
• Transmits signals to/from different parts of the body.
Organs:
Organs:
Brain
Spinal Cord
Nerves
I will be able to analyse how body systems function
4. Integumentary System
• Protects the body from damage (e.g. loss of water, abrasion).
• It is waterproof,
and protects the deeper tissues, and helps
regulate temperature.
Organs:
Organs:
Mammary Glands
Skin
Organs:
Organs:
Pituitary gland
Pineal gland
Thyroid gland
Pancreas
I will be able to analyse how body systems function
6. Muscular System
• Permits movement of the body, maintains posture, and circulates
blood throughout the body.
• Controlled through the nervous system.
Organs:
Organs:
Muscles
Tendons
Ligaments
I will be able to analyse how body systems function
7. Lymphatic (Immune) System
• Detects and protects against pathogens (viruses, bacteria,
worms, etc).
• Learns over time to recognise specific pathogens more
efficiently.
Organs:
Organs:
Lymph nods
Bone marrow
Spleen
I will be able to analyse how body systems function
8. Respiratory System
• Intake and exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
• Aids the immune system (e.g. mucous, coughing,
sneezing) and speaking.
Organs:
Organs:
Lungs
Nasal cavity
Diaphragm
I will be able to analyse how body systems function
9. Excretory System
• Removes waste and excess materials from the body
through urine or sweating.
• Regulates fluid and salt balance.
Organs:
Organs:
Kidneys
Ureters
Bladder
I will be able to analyse how body systems function
10. Reproductive System
• Consists of sex organs that work together for sexual
reproduction.
• Strongly connected to the endocrine (hormone) system.
Organs:
Testes
Penis Possibly the only
Vagina “optional” body
Ovaries system for an
Uterus organism.
I will be able to analyse how body systems function
11. Digestive System
• Breaks down food into smaller nutrient molecules, that are taken
up by the blood.
• Also responsible for the removal of solid waste (faeces).
Organs:
Organs:
Mouth
Stomach
Intestines
Liver
a) spinal cord
b) arteries
c) trachea (aka w_ _ _ p_ _ _)
d) femur
e) bladder
