  1. The Human Body

  2. Different systems in the human body:  • Circulatory System (heart, blood, vessels) • Respiratory System (nose, trachea, lungs) Skeletal System (bones)  • Excretory System (lungs, large intestine, kidneys)  • Urinary System (bladder, kidneys) • Immune System (many types of protein, cells, organs, tissues) • Muscular System (muscles) • Endocrine System (glands) • Digestive System (mouth, esophogus, stomach, intestines) • Nervous System (brain, spinal cord, nerves)  • Reproductive System (male and female reproductive organs)

  3. The Excretory System... This is your body’s way of getting rid of waste. Your body takes the goodness from the food we eat to keep our bodies strong and healthy. After your body has taken what it needs from the food, the wastes are left behind . These wastes are poisonous chemicals and if they stay in your body it could seriously hurt or even kill you. How does it work? Your kidneys

  4. Your Kidneys As your blood travels throughout your body (1), it becomes more and more polluted. Eventually the blood enters a special filter (2), an organ known as your kidneys. As the blood enters your kidneys it is cleaned, for example like a filter in a fish tank. Your kidneys clean the blood and sends the urine to your bladder for storage (3). It takes about 45 minutes for your kidneys to completely filter all of the blood in your body. Then the clean blood exits the kidneys (4).

  5. The bladder. The urine is sent from the kidneys to the bladder. Eventually as the bladder becomes full, your brain tells you that you need to go to the bathroom. Urine leaves your body through the process of urination, commonly known as peeing.

  6. What can go wrong??? Some of the problems in the excretory system are: kidney failure urinary tract infections kidney stones prostate enlargement bladder control problems. Let me explain a few...

  7. Bladder control problems Kidney failure • This happens when the kidneys can not clean the blood and produce the urine which means the wastes aren’t coming out of the body. • This can be caused by some drugs, loss of blood or an injury. • But if the kidneys are not seriously damaged, they may recover or you may need a kidney transplant. But remember we have 2 kidneys, but only need 1 to survive. This is when your bladder is out of control. There are many causes and many treatment options. Treatments range from simple exercises to surgery. FACT! More women are affected by urinary incontinence than men.

  8. How can we keep ourselves healthy? Eat 5 pieces of fruit / vegetables a day Drink lots of water (8 glasses a day) Go to the toilet when we need to Don’t watch too much TV, get out there and do some exercise!!!

  9. Fact zone!!! We have 2 kidneys, but only need 1, Our kidneys look like kidney beans, The Kidney is about the size of a computer mouse, The kidney is a filter. Fun Facts! Every square inch of the human body has about 19 million skin cells.The average human head has about 100,000 hairs.The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue.You blink over 10,000,000 times a year.The human brain weighs about 3 pounds.It takes about 20 seconds for a red blood cell to circle the whole body.Only 10% of the population are left handed.Children tend to grow faster in the spring. The most sensitive finger on the human hand is the index finger.
