excretory system

• helps remove waste from the human body and includes the kidneys, liver, and bladder

• is responsible for the production of hormones

• transports oxygen throughout the body

• filters nutrients from the blood

respiratory system

• a group of organs that allow oxygen and carbon dioxide to exchange between the body and the environment

• a system responsible for digestion and nutrient absorption

• a network of blood vessels that transport nutrients and waste

• a collection of muscles that facilitate movement and stability

nervous system

• the major system that controls ALL other body systems; includes the brain, spinal cord, nerves, sensory receptors, and stimuli

• a system responsible for digestion and metabolism

• the system that regulates blood circulation and respiration

skeletal muscle

• involuntary muscle found in the digestive system

• voluntary muscle found in the muscular system and provide movement to the human body

• muscle that is not attached to bones

• muscle that functions automatically without conscious control

digestive system

• to break down food and get nutrients to the body

• to circulate blood throughout the body

• to provide structural support to the body

• to facilitate gas exchange in the lungs

smooth muscle

• A type of muscle that is under voluntary control

• Found in the muscular system and is an involuntary muscle (moves without conscious control); helps move food through the body

• A muscle type that is only found in the heart

• A muscle that is primarily used for posture and stability

ORGANS in the skeletal system...
