Presentation Transcript

  1. Warm-Up #2 • There are 11 Human Body organ systemsthat we will be studying this year. But before we begin learning about any of them, I want you to tell me which systems you are already aware of. As your warm-up, please write as many of the 11 organ systems that you know AND one organ that may be involved with that system…

  2. Body Systems Review Physiology

  3. Here they are… • Circulatory (heart, arteries, veins) • Immune or lymphatic (lymph vessels, lymph nodes, spleen) • Nervous (spinal chord, brain, nerves) • Reproductive (uterus, ovaries, testis) • Respiratory (lungs, diaphragm) • Urinary or excretory (urethra, urinary bladder, kidney) • Muscular (skeletal muscles) • Digestive (stomach, intestine) • Integumentary (skin, hair) • Skeletal (cartilage, bones, joints) • Endocrine (thyroid gland, pineal gland) “All systems are both independent & interconnected”

  4. A Mnemonic? What is a Mnemonic (ne-mon-ic)? • A random short phrase that is used to help remember lists or facts • Ex: ROY G. BIV - tells the colors of a rainbow in their order (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet) • Ex: SOHCAHTOA - helps to remember sin, cos, and tangent in geometry • MURDER IN CSI • Muscular, urinary, respiratory, digestive, endocrine, reproductive, immune (lymphatic), nervous, circulatory, skeletal, integumentary (skin)

  5. Nervous • Nervous System • Structures: Brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves • Function: Recognizes and coordinates the body’s response to changes in its internal and external environments

  6. Integumentary • Integumentary System • Structures: Skin, hair, nails, sweat and oil glands • Function: Serves as a barrier against infection and injury; helps to regulate body temperature; provides protection against ultraviolet radiation from the sun

  7. Skeletal • Skeletal System • Structures: Bones, cartilage, ligaments, tendons • Function: Supports the body; protects internal organs; allows movement; stores mineral reserves; provides a site for blood cell formation

  8. Muscular • Muscular System • Structures: Skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, cardiac muscle • Function: Works with skeletal system to produce voluntary movement; helps to circulate blood and move food through the digestive system

  9. Circulatory • Cardiovascular System • Structures: Heart, blood vessels, blood • Function: Brings oxygen, nutrients, and hormones to cells; fights infection; removes cell wastes; helps to regulate body temperature

  10. Respiratory • Respiratory System • Structures: Nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, lungs • Function: Provides oxygen needed for cellular respiration and removes excess carbon dioxide from the body

  11. Digestive • Digestive System • Structures: Mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestines, rectum • Function: Converts food into simpler molecules that can be used by the cells of the body; absorbs food; eliminates wastes

  12. Urinary • Excretory System • Structures:kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra • Function: Eliminates waste products from the body in ways that maintain homeostasis

  13. Endocrine • Endocrine System • Structures: Hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenals, pancreas, ovaries (in females), testes (in males) • Function: Controls growth, development and metabolism through hormones, maintains homeostasis

  14. Reproductive • Reproductive System • Structures: Testes, epididymis, vas deferens, urethra, and penis (in males), ovaries, Fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina (in females) • Function: Produces reproductive cells; in females, nurtures and protects developing embryo

  15. Lymphatic • Immune System • Structures: White blood cells, thymus, spleen, lymph nodes, lymph vessels • Function: Helps protect the body from disease; collects fluid lost from blood vessels and returns the fluid to the circulatory system
