Respiratory System • The function of the Respiratory System is to exchange carbon dioxide gas with oxygen gas. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/imagepages/1103.htm
Digestive System • The function of the digestive system is to obtain nutrients and eliminate unused food waste. http://www.mydr.com.au/files/images/categories/anatom/digestive_system.jpg
Urinary System • The function of the urinary system is to remove wastes http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/imagepages/1101.htm http://scienceblogs.com/clock/upload/2006/06/kidney-nephron.jpg
Nervous system http://www.drstandley.com/images/nervous5.bmp • The function of the nervous system is to send / receive electrical signals that coordinate organisms daily functions. http://www2.fcsconline.org/staff/gradyt/nervous.jpg
Skeletal system • The skeletal system works to support & protect humans http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/imagepages/1115.htm
Cardiovascular system • The circulatory system sends nutrients and wastes around the body http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/imagepages/1056.htm http://hcd2.bupa.co.uk/images/factsheets/cardiovascular_427x500.jpg
Muscular system • The muscular system not only moves the body, but also moves objects within the body http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/imagepages/9678.htm
Integumentary • The skin works to protect the inside of the body, serve as a sensory organ, and maintain other homeostatic functions www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/images/ency/fullsize/19679.jpg
