(a)  

38.

This system provides structural support and protection for all the other organ systems in the body.

It also synthesizes red and white blood cells and platelets in bone marrow.

Another vital function is that the structures of this system act as a storage depot for minerals such as calcium, phosphorous, and magnesium

39.

This system is also referred to as the immune system, and has its own vessel network with glands

(a)  

40.

This system consists of organs that differentiate male from female. Organs and their functions differ between male and female, in this system.
