Organ SystemsVersión en línea Match the Organ System with the correct function and organs. por Madison Fowler 1 Integumentary System 2 Skeletal System 3 Muscular system 4 Nervous system 5 Endocrine system 6 Cardiovascular system 7 Lymphatic system 8 Respiratory system 9 Digestive system 10 Urinary system 11 Reproductive system Contains hair, sweat glands, sebaceous glands, and nails. Protects the body from the external environment, excretes metabolic waste, helps to make vitamin D, and detects pain, touch, dehydration, and changes in temperature. consists of the bones and the cartilage associated with joints. Protects the body, provides support and a framework for muscles to act upon, contains bone marrow for blood cells to develop in, and stores minerals such as calcium. consists primarily of skeletal muscle, but there are also two other types of muscle: cardiac muscle found in the heart and smooth muscle found within the viscera, including the alimentary canal and the walls of blood vessels. Enables the body to move by the action of opposing muscular contraction and relaxation. It also maintains posture and plays a role in thermoregulation. m includes the brain, spinal cord, nerves and special sense organs, e.g. eyes, ears, and taste buds. s. This system is divided into the central nervous system, containing the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system, containing everything else. Detecting changes (sensory function) in the internal and external environment, encoding them into electrical impulses, and transmitting them along the nerves. include the pituitary, thyroid, pineal, parathyroid, and adrenal glands. Tissue is also found within the hypothalamus, pancreas, thymus, gonads, heart, stomach, and small intestine. Hormones alter the metabolism of target cells. The hormone can be very specific, affecting only one cell type, or very general, affecting many cell types. consists of the blood, heart, and blood vessels. Pumps blood around the body through the blood vessels to deliver oxygen and nutrients to cells and remove metabolic waste. Regulates the water content of body fluids, the acid-base balance, and the temperature of the body. consists of lymphatic fluid (lymph), lymphatic vessels, lymph nodes, the spleen, lymph nodules, and thymus. Responsible for transporting various substances; it takes lipids from the gastrointestinal tract to the blood, and transports protein and fluids back to the bloodstream. It is also responsible for the development of lymphocytes, the cells responsible for fighting disease. consists of air passageways: the pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and the lungs. Responsible for oxygen/carbon dioxide gas exchange with the blood and also involved in the regulation of acid-base balance and sound production. consists of the digestive tract: the oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, and small and large intestine, as well as organs that assist digestion: the salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. Responsible for the breakdown of ingested food, both physically and chemically, so that nutrients can be absorbed. It is also involved in the absorption of water and removal of undigested food. consists of the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra Filters blood in order to extract metabolic waste and maintain the acid-base and mineral balance. It is also helps to regulate the production of red blood cells. contains the gonads (ovaries), uterine tubes, uterus, vagina, clitoris, labia, and mammary glands. contains the gonads (testes), epididymes, ductus deferens, penis, and scrotum. produce oocytes (the cells from which an egg develops) and also release hormones that regulate reproduction and development produce sperm and release hormones that regulate reproduction and development.
