Body/ organism

Body/ organism

Organ Systems-
1. integumentary system-The integumentary system consists of the skin, hair, nails, glands, and nerves.
2. Muscular System- Skeletal muscles are attached to the skeleton bones, and provide movement of the body. Smooth muscle is found in our internal organs such as the digestive system, respiratory system, blood vessels, and bladder.
3. Endocrine System-The major glands that make up the human endocrine system include the: hypothalamus. pituitary gland.
4. Circulatory System- The blood circulatory system (cardiovascular system) delivers nutrients and oxygen to all cells in the body.
5. Nervous system- Your spinal cord receives information from the skin, joints and muscles of your body. It also carries the nerves that control all your movements. Your brain is the most complicated part of your nervous system.
6. Skeletal System- Your skeleton also helps protect your internal organs and fragile body tissues.
7. Organs-
  1. Heart- The blood provides your body with the oxygen and nutrients it needs. It also carries away waste.
  2. Pancrease- The pancreas is a gland organ in the digestive and endocrine system of vertebrates.
  3. Brain The brain is the control centre for all the body’s functions, such as walking, talking, swallowing, breathing, taste, smell, heart rate and so on.
  4. Stomach- The stomach is a muscular hollow organ. It takes in food from the esophagus (gullet or food pipe), mixes it, breaks it down, and then passes it on to the small intestine in small portions.
  5. Tissue-Subsystem Damage is the opposite of Critical Existence Failure. It is when individual body parts (or components of a vehicle) can be targeted or damaged, or when physical effects impede your character, such as limping or shaky aim.
    1. cells- Cells that do the same job combine together to form body tissue, such as muscle, skin, or bone tissue. Groups of different types of cells make up the organs in your body, such as your heart, liver, or lungs. Each organ has its own job to do, but all organs work together to maintain your body.
      1. chloroplasts- Chloroplasts absorb sunlight and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide gas to produce food for the plant. Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells and eukaryotic algae that conduct photosynthesis. Chloroplasts absorb sunlight and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide gas to produce food for the plant.
      2. Chloroplasm- Part of a plant, and a plant only, which makes the food through photosynthesis.
      3. cell wall-Cellulose is called a structural carbohydrate (complex sugar) because it is used in protection and support. Cell walls also help a plant keep its shape. While they do protect the cells, cell walls and cellulose also allow plants to grow to great heights.
      4. Nucleus - When the cell is in a resting state there is something called chromatin in the nucleus. Chromatin is made of DNA, RNA, and nuclear proteins. DNA and RNA are the nucleic acids inside of the cell. The nucleolus takes up around 25% of the volume of the nucleus. This structure is made up of proteins and ribonucleic acids (RNA). Its main function is to rewrite ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and combine it with proteins. This results in the formation of incomplete ribosomes.
      5. Cell Membrane- The cell membrane surrounds all cells and it is semi-permeable, controlling the movement of substances in and out of cells. The cell membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules and controls the movement of substances in and out of cells. The basic function of the cell membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings. It consists of the phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins.
    2. Epithelial- Cells are polarized with a 'surface' and 'basement' side. The surface side may have special characteristcs such as cilia or microvilli. The membrane functions also often differ.
    3. Connective- Found throughout body, forms the support and structure for organs and the body itself.
    4. Neural- Found throughout body with concentrations in the brain, the spinal cord and the enteric nervous system of the gut.
    5. Muscular- Intestinal Smooth muscle and Cardiac muscle both have cell to cell communication.
8. reproductive system- The organs and structures of the female reproductive system give women the ability to produce ova (an ovum is one egg, ova means multiple eggs) to be fertilised by sperm. They also provide a place for the fetus (baby) to grow and develop.
9. Lympathic system- The lymphatic system is a series of vessels throughout the body that drain fluid from tissues. Bacteria and other microbes are picked up in the lymphatic fluid and trapped inside lymph nodes, where they can be attacked and destroyed by white blood cells.
10. Urianary System- The urinary system, also known as the renal system, consists of the two kidneys, ureters, the bladder, and the urethra. Each kidney consists of millions of functional units called nephrons.
11. Respitory system- When we breathe, we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. This exchange of gases is the respiratory system's means of getting oxygen to the blood. Respiration is achieved through the mouth, nose, trachea, lungs, and diaphragm.
12. Digestive system-The walls of the small intestine absorb the digested nutrients into the bloodstream. The blood delivers the nutrients to the rest of the body. Large intestine. The waste products of the digestive process include undigested parts of food and older cells from the GI tract lining.
