cardiovascular system
transports nutrients, chemicals, gasses, and waste in blood. - heart & blood vessels
respiratory system
adds oxygen to blood and removes carbon dioxide - nose, throat, tachea, lungs, bronchi
digestive system
breaks down food, eliminates waste - mouth, stomach, intestines, liver, pancreas, gallbladder
urinary system
removes nitrogenous waste - kidneys, ureters, bladder, uretha
integumentary system
protective barrier, sensory receptors, vitamin D production- skin, hair, nails, sweat glands

returns fluid to cardiovascular system, filters nad eliminates disease causing bacteria - lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, bone marrow
skeletal system
protects major organs, body movement - bones cartlidge, joints
muscular system
moves bones , maintains posture - muscles and tendons

interphase
normal cell work, growing stage
prophase
nuclear membrane disappears, chromatin condenses into chromosomes, centrioles move to opposite poles
metaphase
