
A system of organs and tissues, including
the heart, blood, blood vessels, lymph,
lymphatic vessels, and lymph glands,
involved in circulating blood and lymph
through the body.
fist-sized, muscular organ that pumps
blood through the body
 It is a smooth straight muscle.


The Pulmonary!


It’s responsible for
pumping the blood to
every cell in the body.
It is also responsible for
pumping blood to the
lungs, where the blood
gives up carbon
dioxide and takes on
oxygen.


The Systemic!
The blood leaves the
heart through the
aorta, goes to all the
organs of the body
through the systemic
arteries.
 Then returns to the
heart through the
systemic veins.

There are three types of
vessels arteries, veins, and
capillaries.




Arteries-a blood vessel that
conveys blood from the
heart to any part of the
body.
veins-tubes conveying
blood from various parts of
the body to the heart.
Capillaries-smallest of
blood vessels. They serve to
distribute oxygenated
blood from arteries to the
tissues of the body.
Also to feed deoxygenated
blood from the tissues back
into the veins.
Valvular stenosis is the result of diseases
such as rheumatic fever, that causes the
opening through the valve to become
so narrow that blood can flow through
difficulty.
 Atherosclerosis is a degenerative disease
that results in narrowing of the coronary
arteries. This is caused by fatty deposits,
most notably cholesterol, on the interior
walls of the coronary arteries.

a drug to help fight rejections in 1982.
 Coronary artery disease that is a
condition and especially one caused by
atherosclerosis that reduces the blood
flow through the coronary arteries to the
heart muscle and typically results in
chest pain or heart damage

the human body.

The group of organs that break down food and
absorb the nutrients used by the body for fuel.
The organs in the digestive system, in the order
in which food travels through them, are:
Pregastric Digestion
 Mouth
 Esophagus
 Stomach
 Small Intestine
 Large Intestine
 Rectum
 Anus

and saliva.
The lovely Mouth

It is the muscular
passage connecting
the mouth or
pharynx with the
stomach

It’s an expanded
section of the
digestive tube
between the
esophagus and small
intestine.


It’s longest section of
the digestive tube and
consists of three
segments forming a
passage from the
pylorus to the large
intestine such as
Duodenum, Jejunum,
Ileum.
The average length of
an average humans
small intestines are up
to 6-7 meters.

the lower part of the
alimentary canal,
extending from the
pylorus to the anus.
Within the large
intestine, three major
segments are
recognized such for
the cecum, colon,
and the rectum.

stores solid waste
until it leaves the
body through the
anus.
The liver
serves
wide variety
 It’s
the alargest
glandofinbody
the functions, including detoxifying
body and performs an
astonishingly large number of
tasks that impact all body
systems.
 Small lobe of liver- Metabolize
and store carbohydrates,
which are used as the source
for the sugar (glucose) in
blood that red blood cells and
the brain use.
 Large lobe of liverManufacture (synthesize)
proteins, including albumin (to
help maintain the volume of
blood) and blood clotting
factors.

elongated organ,
light tan or pinkish in
color, that lies in
close proximity to
the duodenum.
Endocrine System!

The system of glands that produce
endocrine secretions that help to control
bodily metabolic activity.
Functions of the system!
Endocrine system is a collection of
'glands' that produce hormones. These
hormones are very important for
regulating metabolism process, growth
of the body and sexual development.
 The glands release the hormones into the
blood stream and are transported to the
various cells and body parts. When the
hormones reach the target site, they
bind to the receptor cells with a lock and
key mechanism.

Problems that may occur!

Diabetes, Growth Disorders,
Osteoporosis, Polycystic Ovary
Syndrome, and also Thyroid Disorders.
Facts!
consists of a collection of small glands
that regulates a number of vital functions
of our body.
 There are six major glands that form the
endocrine system in the human body.
They are the hypothalamus, pituitary,
adrenal, thyroid, pineal and
reproductive glands or gonads

It’s integral part of the substance of the
brain.
 A small cone-shaped structure, it
projects downward, ending in the
pituitary (infundibular) stalk, a tubular
connection to the pituitary gland.


The main endocrine gland. It is a small
structure in the head and is called the
master gland because it produces
hormones that control other glands and
many body functions including growth.
The pituitary consists of the anterior and
posterior pituitary.

One of a pair of small glands, each of
which sits on top of one of the kidneys.
The adrenal is made up of an outer wall
(the cortex) and an inner portion (the
medulla).

The designating or of a large ductless
gland lying in front and on either side of
the trachea and secreting the hormone
thyroxin, which regulates body growth
and metabolism: the malfunctioning or
congenital absence of this gland can
cause goiter, cretinism.

A reproductive gland (ovary or testis)
that produces germ cells (gametes).
Facts!
As the body's chemical messengers,
hormones transfer information and
instructions from one set of cells to
another.
 The Hormone levels can be influenced
by factors such as stress, infection, and
changes in the balance of fluid and
minerals in blood.

skin and the related structures that cover
and protect the body.
 The human integumentary system is
composed of the skin, and includes
glands, hair, and nails.

regulates its temperature, and receives
sensory information from the
environment.
 Largest organ in the body.
 It is 15% of the body weight.
 contained in the outer epidermis layer,
and the dermis contains the nerve
endings, blood vessels, and elastic fibers.

It controls temperature and water
balance.
 The sweat evaporates, cooling the body.
 Skin glands produce sweat to cool the
body when it's too hot.

Alopecia Areata, Psoriasis, Warts,
Dermatitis, Athletes Foot.
 You can also have skin rashes. All these
can form any where on your body.


Hair follicles are lined with cells that
synthesize the proteins that form hair. A
sebaceous gland that secretes the oily
coating of the hair shaft, capillary bed,
nerve ending and small muscle are
associated with each hair follicle.
Hair, scales, feathers, claws, horns, and
nails are animal structures derived from
skin.
 The hair shaft extends above the skin
surface, the hair root extends from the
surface to the base or hair bulb.

include protection, regulation of body
temperature, sensory reception, water
balance, synthesis of vitamins and
hormones, and absorption of materials.
 An Acidic secretions from skin glands
also retard the growth of fungi.


Sensory receptors in the skin include
those for pain, pressure (touch), and
temperature.
Skin cells synthesize melanin and
carotenes, which give the skin its color.
 The skin also assists in the synthesis of
vitamin D.
 Children lacking sufficient vitamin D
develop bone abnormalities known as
rickets.

The skin is selectively soluble to fatsoluble substances such as vitamins A,
D,E,AND K, as well as steroid hormones
such as estrogen.
 Substances like this enter the
bloodstream through the capillary
networks in the skin.

Muscles!


is attached to bones by tendons, is
associated with the body's voluntary
movements. Skeletal muscle is striated
muscle. Unlike cardiac muscle, the cells
are not branched.
Visceral Muscle!

Visceral muscle, is found in various parts
of the body such as the arteries, the
bladder, the digestive tract, as well as in
many other organs.

Excretory System!

The main organ of the urinary system is
the kidney. The kidney performs dual
tasks of filtering out wastes and purifying
blood, The main function of the kidneys is
to filter out wastes. Other organs in the
urinary system include; the urinary
bladder, the ureters, and the urethra.
Immune System!

The body’s main defense against all
foreign substances. Without the immune
system, the human body would die
immediately from all the bacteria, which
is the skin and more.
Integumentary System!
It’s mainly skin.
 Also offers protection to the underlying
layers from the sun.
 serves in body temperature regulation.

Nerve System!
This masters the controlling and
communicating system of the
body. Every thought, action, and
emotion reflects is the action of this
system.
 Communicating of electrical signals, that
are rapid, specific, and usually cause
almost immediate responses.

Reproductive System!
male’s reproductive system is to
manufacture sperm and deliver them to
the female’s reproductive tract where
fertilization may occur.
 female’s reproductive system involved in
producing eggs in conceiving by
carrying babies when the sperm of the
male has been transferred over.

Resperatory System!

air is inhaled through the nose or mouth.
 travels into the pharynx, passes through
the larynx, and down the trachea then
trachea branch and air reaches the
lungs where it will diffuse into the blood
via the alveoli.

Skeletal System!

gives us our shape.
 Cartilage is largely
composed of water and contains no
nerves or blood vessels.
 Bone provide other important functions
for us other than giving shape to the
body.
