How 12 Systems Work Together

The body is a complex system of cells, tissues, and organs working together to form systems. There are twelve systems total in the human body and they are: Integumentary, Skeletal, Muscular, Immune, Lymphatic, Cardiovascular, Urinary, Digestive, Respiratory, Nervous, Endocrine, and Reproductive Systems. All the systems are important to the body to function as a whole. If one system is not working correctly, then results are fatal to that person. I believe that the most important systems are the Cardiovascular, the Reproductive, and the Nervous. These allow us to have a heartbeat, to have a child, and to have the sense of touch. I plan to divide and discuss these systems and explain how they work.
The first system I will discuss is the Cardiovascular. The Cardiovascular System, or also known as the Circulatory System, is the system that circulates blood and lymph through the body. It consists of the heart, blood vessels, blood, lymph, and the lymph vessels and glands. All the parts of the Circulatory System work together to get the blood throughout the body from head to toe. The system starts at the heart which pumps the blood to the vessels and veins. The blood vessels transport …show more content…
Most people would think that all it has to deal with is a few parts; however, it is more complex than what they think. The Reproductive System in a woman is vastly different from that in a man. A woman’s Reproductive System is made up of five organs that work together, and they include: ovary, fallopian tube, uterus, cervix, and the vagina. The man’s Reproduction System contains the following parts are: prostate, urethra, penis, and testicles. In a male, sperm forms in the testicles and travels through the urethra to the penis and out of the body. A woman then takes in the sperm which travels through the vagina, through the uterus which goes to the fallopian tube ending in the ovaries. This makes fertilization occur which produces an
