1. Human Body Systems Review
Structures, Functions, and Interactions

2. Digestive
Structures: Mouth, esophagus, liver, stomach, gallbladder, pancreas, large intestines, small intestines, rectum Function: breaks down food into molecules the body can use, and eliminates waste Interactions: Uses the circulatory system to take food to the individual cells, forms the end of the excretory system to expel solid waste.

3. Digestive

4. Excretory or Urinary
Structures: kidney, urinary bladder, urethra, anus, large intestines Functions: Blood is filtered through the kidneys and removed from the body. (Urinary) Unused digested foods are removed through the anus (Excretory) Interactions: Cleans waste from the circulatory system and digestive system

5. Urinary

6. Respiratory
Structures: Nose, Lungs, Wind Pipe Function: Moves oxygen into the body and removes carbon dioxide and water from the body. Interactions: Circulatory system carries oxygen to the cells and carbon dioxide away.

7. Respiratory

8. Circulatory or Cardiovascular
Structures: Heart, blood vessels Functions: Heart pumps blood through all blood vessels. Interactions: Highway system of the body, carries food (digestive) and oxygen (respiratory) to the cells and carries waste away.

9. Cardiovascular

10. Nervous
Structures: brain, spinal column, nerves. Functions: detects & interprets info from inside and outside the body; control center Interactions: Tells muscles to contract (voluntary), tells heart to pump (involuntary)

11. Nervous

12. Endocrine
Organs: glands, hypothalamus, thyroid, ovaries, testes Functions: Sends out chemical messages Interactions: Sends growth hormones to skeletal system.

13. Endocrine

14. Skeletal
Structures: bones, cartilage, joints, marrow Functions: provides shape and support, enables you to move, protects your internal organs Interactions: bones make your red blood cells (cardiovascular).

15. Skeletal

16. Muscular
Structures: skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, and cardiac muscle Functions: Involuntary muscles are responsible for activities such as breathing and digesting food; Voluntary muscles are under your control Interactions: All systems, all of your organs are made of muscle

17. Muscular

18. Immune
Structures: white blood cells, skin, stomach, phagocytes, lymphocytes Function: defends the body against germs and microorganisms Interactions: All systems, Lymphatic system gets rid of bacteria and viruses
