Breaks down food Absorbs nutrients • Endocrine System - hormone producing glands; thymus, thyroid, adrenal, pancreas, ovaries and testes Eg. Regulates body activities by releasing hormones • lymphatic system - lymphatic fluid and vessels, spleen, thymus, lymph nodes, tonsils, B cells, T cells Eg. Return protein and fluids to blood Carries lipids from GIT to blood • Muscular - skeletal muscles (especially) Muscles attached to bone Eg. Produces heat Movement and posture Nervous system - brain, spinal cord and nerves Eg. Regulates body activities by generating action potentials • Reproductive system - gonads (testes and ovaries) uterine, Fallopian tubes. Female: uterus, Vagina and mammery glands Mammery glands produce milk Gonads produce gametes • Respiratory system - lungs, larynx, pharynx, trachea and bronchial tubes Eg. Transfer oxygen from air to blood and carbon dioxide from blood to air Helps regulate body fluids • skin (integumentary) system - skin, hair, nails, sweat and oil glands Eg. Protects body Regulates body temp • Skeletal System - bones, joints and associated cartilage Eg.
