Fundamentals of Anatomy and Physiology Body systems Reminder of P2 assignment due in the following week

To identify the systems of the human body Aim: To explore the fundamental anatomy and physiology of the human body Learning Outcomes To describe an organ To identify the systems of the human body To Match organs of the human body to the systems of the body. To describe the function of each body system To identify the location of each system and its organs Wordsearch quiz in groups of 2-3 Ask the group what are organs Definition to power point Part of this module is to have an overview of the structure and function of the main systems of the body including the location of various organs The exception to this is the skin which is classed as an organ but it does not belong to any particular system

Organs and systems Organs are made up of different types of tissues that work together Organs perform different functions within the body Organs also work together to make up the different body systems i.e. the heart and lungs Split group into small groups at tables To posters – the systems of the body ask them to put them on their posters Then what they think that each system does. Finally what organs are associated with each system Give out mini torsos to help them.

Body Systems Cardiovascular system Respiratory system Digestive system Renal system Nervous system Endocrine system Reproductive system Lymphatic system Musculo-skeletal system Immune system Go through this with the group

The cardiovascular system Maintenance of the oxygen supply to the body and to transport materials to the cells Heart

The respiratory system Maintain the supply of oxygen and to remove carbon dioxide from the body Lungs

Stomach, liver, pancreas, duodenum, ileum, colon The digestive system This begins at the mouth and ends at the anus and is made up of several organs Stomach, liver, pancreas, duodenum, ileum, colon

The system that is used to filter waste products from the blood The Renal system The system that is used to filter waste products from the blood Kidneys, bladder

Responsible for receiving information from the environment The nervous system Responsible for receiving information from the environment Brain

Produces chemical messages called hormones The endocrine system Produces chemical messages called hormones Glands and hormones

The reproductive system The system that manufactures specialised cells called ova and sperm Testes, ovaries, uterus

Lymphatic system Returns some tissue fluid from the cells back to the blood and helps fight disease Spleen

Musculo-skeletal system Enables movement Bones and muscles

Immune System Protects the body against disease causing organisms No organs but white blood cells are associated with the immune system.
