Your organs do not work alone

They must be linked to other organs in order to carry out all the functions required

Linking of organs is called an organ system

The cells in tissues must be healthy for organs and organ systems to function

Page 3: Interdependent Organ Systems

Human Organ Systems

Skeletal System

Made up of bones and cartilage

Provides support for movement

Provides points for attachment for other tissues

Page 4: Interdependent Organ Systems

Human Organ Systems

Muscular System

Made up of skeletal muscles including tendons and ligaments

Allows you to move from place to place

Moves substances through your body

Page 5: Interdependent Organ Systems

Human Organ Systems

Circulatory System

Made up of the heart, blood vessels and blood

Delivers nutrients

Moves gases

Removes waste

Page 6: Interdependent Organ Systems

Human Organ Systems

Respiratory System

Made up of nose, trachea and lungs

Allows oxygen from the air to enter the body

Allows waste carbon dioxide to exit the body

Page 7: Interdependent Organ Systems

Human Organ Systems

Nervous System

Made up of the brain, spinal cord and nerves

Sends and receives messages throughout the body

Controls behaviour, movements and body processes (digestion, circulation etc.)

Page 8: Interdependent Organ Systems

Human Organ Systems

Digestive System

Made up of the mouth, salivary glands, esophagus, stomach, liver, gall bladder, pancreas, intestines

Breaks food down so nutrients can be absorbed by blood and transported to all cells

The colon expels solid waste

Page 9: Interdependent Organ Systems

Human Organ Systems

Excretory System

Made up of kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra

Removes liquid waste and extra water from the body

Filters the blood

Page 10: Interdependent Organ Systems

Human Organ Systems

Integumentary System

Made up of skin, hair, nails and sweat glands

Skin hair and nails protect the body

Sweat glands help maintain body temperature

Page 11: Interdependent Organ Systems

Human Organ Systems

Endocrine System

Made up of hormone producing glands

Hormones (chemicals) that regulate every body function

Glands like the pituitary, thyroid, and pancreas produce hormones that carry message to other parts of the body

The hypothalamus in the brain controls the endocrine and nervous system

Human Organ Systems

Lymphatic System

Made up of lymph, lymph nodes, lymph vessels and lymphoid tissues

Protects the body by destroying and removing any invading organisms and abnormal cells

Human Organ Systems

Reproductive System

Made up of organs for reproduction

Different for males and females
