Digestive system

For my anatomy class I was asked to write a paper of how a body system of my choice affects the other body systems. I chose the endocrine system, it is made up of many different glands, but every gland still does a part in making sure that organs in the other body systems are well balanced. I liked the endocrine system when we went over it in class and thought it would be an excellent choice. Especially since most of it has to do with the brain and I love to study the brain. I will cover all the…

the body to the right atrium. The posterior vena cava is part of the circulatory system. Heart: The heart is a thick muscle located near the center of the chest between the lungs. It looks like a quenched fist, pinkish in color and is surrounded by the pericardium. Its function is to pump oxygenated blood from the heart to the rest of the body and supply them with blood. The heart is part of the circulatory system. Pericardium: The pericardium protects the heart from infections and provides…

and flat, and they also have internal organ systems and tissues. Flatworms are the simplest organisms that have three embryonic germ layers, are bilaterally symmetrical, and have the feature of cephalization. Cephalization is the concentration of sensory organs and some other organs at the anterior end of the body, or the front end. This forms a head and a brain both during evolution and in the course of a developing embryo. Flatworms have a digestive cavity with just one opening, which is its…

complex and interconnected systems. Each body system contributes a unique role to keep the mammalian body active and functional. However each body system relies on other body systems to perform their specific roles effectively. Muscular System The muscular system is responsible for the movement of the human body. There are more than 600 skeletal muscles within the body and this makes up 40% of a person’s body weight (Healthline, 2015). Muscle contractions within the skeletal system are produced…

of cells; if the proteins don’t work properly, the cells are left with a high salt concentration and take up liquid from mucus in attempts to reach equilibrium.The disease most commonly affects the respiratory and digestive systems. In normal bodies, mucus is used in many organ systems to protect against harmful bacteria. However, in a body with C.F., the mucus is too thick to properly function and causes build-up. In the lungs, mucus build-ups can block airways and cause the formation…

. The 8 major systems within the body are the skeletal system, the nervous system, the endocrine system, the digestive system, the lymphatic system, the urinary system, the circulatory system and the reproductive system. Skeletal system - Bones make up the structure of our body, they are what gives it form. They are hard, and dense and interconnect via joints and are held in place by muscles and tendons. Bones are made of 25% water and 75% solids. the skeletal system protects and shields soft…

1. Detail the first part of the digestive system from the mouth to the esophagus including the structure and functions of each part. The first part of the digestive system is comprised of the mouth, the pharynx and the esophagus. The mouth is an oral cavity that starts the process of mechanical and chemical digestions when food is received. The mouth is bounded by the cheeks and lips. The mouth contains a soft and hard palate, salivary glands, teeth (crown and dentin) and the tongue (covered…
