Tour the organ systems that keep the human body running every second.
What you’ll learn
- Describe how the body is organized and the roles of the skeletal, muscular, and integumentary systems.The body is built from cells up to organ systems working together. The skeleton supports and protects, muscles create movement, and skin defends and regulates.
- Explain how the circulatory, respiratory, digestive, and excretory systems supply and clean the body.The heart and lungs deliver oxygen, digestion turns food into fuel, and the kidneys filter the blood, keeping cells supplied and the body balanced.
- Explain how the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems control and protect the body and how systems cooperate.The nervous and endocrine systems coordinate the body while the immune system defends it. All systems work together to maintain homeostasis.
