The document discusses human anatomy and physiology. It provides information on the four basic tissue types - epithelial, connective, muscular and nervous tissues - and their functions. It also lists the major organ systems of the human body and their functions, including digestive, circulatory, immune, respiratory, excretory, nervous & sensory, muscular & skeletal, hormonal, and reproductive systems. The functions covered include protection, structural support, movement, transport, absorption, storage, circulation, defense, regulation, development, nutrient conversion, waste removal, gas exchange, reproduction, and response/control.

1. Digestive producing offspring
2. Circulatory defense against invading pathogens
3. Immune support and movement
4. Respiratory regulation of internal environment, development
5. Excretory convert food to usable nutrients
6. Nervous & Sensory transport of necessary molecules to cells
7. Muscular & Skeletal gets rid of metabolic wastes
8. Hormonal gas exchange
9. Reproductive regulation and control, response to stimuli,
