Human Body Systems
2
Respiratory System l Function: l Breathing brings air into the lungs and removes waste gases l Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose to carbon dioxide, water and energy
3
Respiratory system Tiny air sacs called alveoli are where gas exchange occurs with the blood. Tiny air sacs called alveoli are where gas exchange occurs with the blood. l Provides the body’s organs and muscles with oxygen, and also to dispels carbon dioxide (cellular waste) from the body.
4
Diseases of respiratory system l Lung Cancer -3rd leading cause of death in men and women in the U.S. l Emphysema ( causes aveoli to enlarge) l Asthma (lung disorder)
5
Cardiovascular System l Coronary circulation is the flow of blood to and from the tissues of the heart. l Pulmonary circulation is the flow of blood through the heart, to the lungs, and back to the heart. l Oxygen rich blood is moved to all tissues and organs of the body and is called systemic circulation.
6
Organs of the circulatory system l Heart l Veins l Arteries l Capillaries
7
Fact l Your heart beats 60-70 times per minute. Each time it pumps 60 mL of blood. How many mL’s in 24 hours. l 5184000 mL’s or l 5184 liter bottles.
8
Excretory System l Includes many systems such as digestive, respiratory, skin and urinary system. l Each gets rid of waste in its own way.
9
Digestive System l Food and liquid in l Water and undigested food out
10
Urinary System l Water and salts in l Excess water, metabolic wastes and salts out. l Controls blood volume ( blood pressure) l Works in conjunction with hypothalmus to balance fluid levels in blood
11
Skeletal System l Skeletal system l Function: l Shape and support l Produces red blood cells l Stores minerals l Protect organs and soft tissue l At birth you 300 bones l As an adult 206 bones
12
Muscular System l Over 600 muscles in your body l Control movement l Voluntary muscles: you choose to move them l Involuntary: heart
13
Nervous System l Responds to stimuli to maintain homeostasis l Central nervous is your brain and spinal cord. l Peripheral nervous system is all the nerves other than the CNS
14
Brain l Three main parts: l Cerebrum l Cerebellum l Brain stem l You also have a left and right half
15
Endocrine System l Endocrine system made up of glands l Glands produce hormones l Hormones are chemicals that turn off, turn on or speed up, slow down the activities of organs and tissues
16
Immune System l Body has 3 lines of defense: skin, breathing passages, mouth and stomach. l Pathogens land on skin and most are destroyed by chemicals in oil and sweat.
17
Reproductive System l Sexual reproduction involves the production of eggs by the female and sperm by the male, which join together during fertilization. l Each sex cell (egg or sperm) contains half (23) of the chromosomes required. (46 for humans)

Spring 2009 41 The diagram above represents a reflex arc in a human. This pathway responds when someone touches something that causes pain, such as a hot stove. Which of the following shows the correct order of the body systems involved in this response? A Integumentary, respiratory, digestive B Circulatory, respiratory, nervous C Integumentary, nervous, muscular D Circulatory, digestive, nervous
