Human Systems Work Together

Integumentary System

External support and protection of body; helps maintain and body temperature

Major organ(s) involved:

Skin
Skeletal System

Internal support and protection; body movement; production of blood cells.

Major organ(s) involved:

Bones, cartilages, ligaments

Muscular System

Body movement; production of heat that maintains body

temperature.

Major organs involved:

Skeletal muscles
Nervous System

Regulatory centers for control of all body systems; learning and memory.

Major organs involved:

Brain

Spinal Cord

Nerves
Endocrine System

Secretion of hormones for chemical regulation of all body systems.

Major organ systems involved:

Pineal Gland

Hypothalamus

Pituitary Gland

Thymus

Pancreas

Adrenal gland

Ovaries (Female)

Testes (Male)
Blood/Cardiovascular System

Transport of nutrients to body cells and transport of wastes away from cells

Major organs involved:

Heart

Blood (RBCs)
Lymphatic System/Immunity

Drainage of tissue fluid; purifies tissue fluid; and keeps it free from pathogens.

blood.

Major organ(s) involved:

Kidneys

Ureters

Urinary Bladder

Urethra
Reproductive System

Production of sperm and egg; transfer of sperm to female system where development occurs.
