Organ/Body Systems, Their Function, Interaction, and Major Organs

A type of organism that is made up of a single cell.

A type of organism that is made up of many cells.

Basic units of structure and function in living things.

An integrated group of cells with a common function, structure, or both.

A combination of tissues designed to perform a specific function or several functions or jobs.

A group of organs that work together to perform a specific function or job.

Moves limbs and trunk; moves substances through body; provides structure and support

Breaks down, extracts and absorbs nutrients from food, removes wastes, maintains water and chemical balances
Main Organs: mouth, esophogus, stomach, intestines

Removes wastes from blood; regulates concentration of body fluids.
Main Organs: Kidneys, bladder, lungs

Takes in oxygen for cells and releases carbon dioxide as waste.
Main Organs: Lungs, nose, mouth, trachea/windpipe

Delivers oxygen and nutrients to body cells and transports waste products to excretory organs.
Main Organs: heart, veins, arteries, capillaries

Regulates behavior, maintains homeostasis; regulates other organ systems; controls sensory and motor functions
Main Organs:Brain, Spinal cord, nerves and special sense organs such as eyes and ears.

1) The Circulatory System: The heart is a muscle that pumps blood.
2) The Digestive System in several places.
-The muscles of the jaw help to chew food
-The muscles that line the esophagus move food from the mouth to the stomach.
-Muscles lining the intestines move digesting food along
3) The Respiratory System is the diaphragm: a large, flat muscle that is in between the lungs and the intestines. It is the movement of the diaphragm that causes the lungs to inflate and deflate.

The digestive system works very closely with the circulatory system to get the absorbed nutrients distributed throughout your body.

1) Your nervous system interacts with every other system in your body. All of your tissues and organs require instruction and direction from the nervous system.
2) Muscular system and nervous helps you move around and interact with your environment.
3) Your digestive and excretory systems work with the nervous system in both conscious ( and unconscious . While digestion goes on without your thoughts, eating, peeing, and pooping are under your control.

1) The circulatory system: The lungs are where the oxygen is picked up by the blood and then transported around the body
2) Nervous System: It controls the breathing rate

The excretory system is a close partner with the circulatory system. Blood that circulates through the body passes through one of the two kidneys. Urea, uric acid, and water are removed from the blood and most of the water is put back into the system.fgrrgbh

1) The circulatory system works closely with ALL other systems in our bodies. It supplies oxygen and nutrients to our body systems by working with the respiratory system.
2) At the same time, the circulatory system helps carry waste and carbon dioxide out of the body.
3) The Digestive System brings in food and turns it into nutrients. The Circulatory system helps get the nutrients into cells.
3) The excretory system removes wastes and balances the water in our blood . The circulatory system helps it get the wastes out (urine) or recycles them (water)
