Introduction

human body, the physical substance of the human organism, composed of living cells and
extracellular materials and organized into tissues, organs, and systems.

Human anatomy and physiology are treated in many different articles. For detailed
discussions of specific tissues, organs, and systems.

In the present work I will present the systems that make up the human body, indicating their
respective organs, functions and citing some diseases that can affect each system.
