To
To
take food into the body.
breakdown food into smaller pieces.
absorb nutrients into body.
excrete solid waste.
Endocrine
Produces hormones that regulate bodily functions.
Excretory (urinary)
To filter wastes from the blood.
Forms urine.
Lymphatic (immune)
Transports nutrients and oxygen to the body cells.
Remove wastes and carbon dioxide from the cells.
Nervous
Senses changes in the environment and coordinates an
appropriate response.
Allows us to function the way we do.
Reproductive
To produce sperm in males.
To produce eggs in females.
Responsible for secondary sex characteristics.
e.g., Males: facial & body hair, deepening of voice.
e.g., Females: breast development, body hair.
Respiratory
Provides oxygen needed by the body.
Removes carbon dioxide waste from the body.
