3. Description The human body
The human body is the most wonderful, complex machine in the world. Your body can walk and run, climb and sit. It can see, hear, smell, taste, and feel. It can eat, talk, laugh, lift things, play games, think, and read.
While these things are going on, you are breathing; there is blood flowing through your blood vessels; you are digesting food; and your body is doing a million other jobs at the same time! All through your life this marvellous machine is at work-even when you are sleeping.
These are a few systems of the human body:
1st The nervous system: Your brain, your spinal cord, and the millions of nerve cells in your body make up your nervous system.
2nd The circulatory system: Your circulatory system consists of your heart, arteries, veins, and very thin blood vessels called capillaries.
3th rd The respiratory system: Oxygen enters your body through your nose or mouth, moves down your windpipe and into your lungs. Your lungs are the most important part of your respiratory system.
4th The muscular and skeletal systems which allow us to move.
5th The digestive system: Your mouth, oesophagus, stomach, large and small intestines and other organs make up your digestive system

5. The Muscular and Skeletal Systems
The muscles are the active part of the apparatus of locomotion. Their task is to move the body. The muscles comprise 40% of the body's weight. The body has 300 individual muscles in different shapes and sizes.
The skeletal system consists of 206 bones as well as joints, cartilage and ligaments; the skeletal system provides the strong, internal framework that supports our body.

7. Circulatory System
The circulatory system consists of the heart and blood vessels. The heart acts as a pump to keep blood moving throughout the body. Arteries are blood vessels which carry blood away from the heart. This blood contains a lot of oxygen and nutrients for the body. Veins are blood vessels which carry blood to the heart from various parts of the body. This blood is low in oxygen and nutrients.

8. The heart The Heart: A Pump That Never Stops
The heart is a powerful pump that beats continuously during life to circulate the blood throughout the body. The heart has four separate chambers
Circulatory System

This blood contains a lot of oxygen and nutrients for the body. Veins are blood vessels which carry blood to the heart from various parts of the body. This blood is low in oxygen and nutrients.
 Red Blood Cells: Cellular Transport System
Red blood cells function by carrying oxygen to every part of the body, and then carrying carbon dioxide back to the lungs. Red blood cells are very well designed to perform this important job. First, they are full of haemoglobin, which transports oxygen to other cells. Interestingly, red blood cells have no nuclei, a feature which makes even more room for haemoglobin. Red blood cells are the only cells in the body that do not have a nucleus.  Second, they are shaped like disks. This shape greatly increases their surface area. The large surface area is important because it improves the efficiency of oxygen transfer between haemoglobin and the tissues where the oxygen is needed.
 Blood Circulation: A Continuous Loop
One of the landmarks in medical history was William Harvey's discovery that blood flows through the body in a continuous, closed loop.

9. Benefits of exercice over the systems of the body
Everyone can benefit from regular exercise. Young people who are active will:
have stronger muscles and bones
have a leaner body because exercise helps control body fat
be less likely to become overweight
decrease the risk of developing type 2 diabetes
possibly lower blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels
have a more positive attitude to life
have better personal values in life (self-control, responsibility, solidarity, healthy competitiveness, social integration, etc.
