Human Organ Systems







Human Organ Systems
Levels of Organization
Chemical atoms combined to form
molecules
Cellular cells are made of molecules
Tissue consists of similar types of
cells
Organ made up of different types of
tissues
Organ system consists of different

Organization of The Body
The eleven organ systems of the human
body work together to maintain
homeostasis
Homeostasis process which organisms
maintain a relatively stable internal
environment
Tissues
Organs
When a bunch of different types of tissues work
together, they form an organ.
Organ Systems
Each organ in our body is part of an organ
system, a group of organs that work
together to perform a major function.
Heart is part of your circulatory system,
which carries oxygen and other materials
throughout your body.

Besides the heart, blood vessels are organs that
work in your circulatory system.

Nervous System
Brain, Spinal cord, periperal nerves
Function: Coordinates the bodys response to
changes in its internal and external
environments

Integumentary System
Skin, hair, nails sweat and oil glands
Function: Serves as a barrier against infection
and injury; helps to regulate body
temperature; provides protection against
ultraviolet radiation from the sun
Respiratory System
Nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi,
bronchiales, lungs
Function: Provides oxygen needed for cellular
respiration and remove excess carbon dioxide
from the body
Digestive System
Mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small
and large intestine
Function: Converts foods into simpler
molecules that can be used by the cells of the
body; absorbs food
Excretory System
Skin, lungs, kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder,
urethra
Function: Eliminates waste products of
metabolism from the body; maintains
homeostasis
Skeletal System
Bones, cartilage, ligaments, tendons
Function: Supports the body; protects
internal organs; allows movement; stores
mineral reserves; provides a site for blood cell
formation
Muscular System
Skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, cardiac
muscle
Function: Works with skeletal system to
produce voluntary movement; helps to
circulate blood and move food through the
digestive system
Circulatory System
Heart, Blood vessels, blood
Function: Brings oxygen, nutrients, and
hormones to cells; fights infection; regulates
body temperature
Endocrine System
Hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid,
parathyroids, adrenals, pancreas, ovaries(in
females), testes (in males)
Function: Controls growth, development,
metabolism, and reproduction
Reproductive System
Testes, epididymis, vas deferens, urethra, and
penis (in males); Ovaries, fallopian tubes,
uterus, vagina (in females).
Produces reproductive cells; in females,
nurtures and protects developing embryo
Lymphatic System
White blood cells, thymus, spleen, lymph
nodes, lymph vessels
Helps protect the body from disease; collects
fluid lost from blood vessels and returns the
fluid to the circulatory system.
Organ Systems Interrelationships
The integumentary system
protects the body from the
external environment
Digestive and respiratory
systems, in contact with the
external environment, take in
nutrients and oxygen
Nutrients and oxygen are
distributed by the blood
Metabolic wastes are
eliminated by the urinary and
respiratory systems

Different populations that live together.
