4 types of Tissue Epithelial tissue
Connective tissue
Muscle tissue
Nervous tissue
Integumentary system Consists of the skin, mucous membranes, hair, and nail
Skeletal system Protects and supports body organs and provides a framework the muscles use to
support movement. Made up of bones and joints
Muscular system Consists of skeletal muscles, tendons that connect muscles to bones, and
ligaments that attach bones together to form joint
Nervous system the body's speedy, electrochemical communication network, consisting of all the
nerve cells of the peripheral and central nervous systems
Endocrine System the body's "slow" chemical communication system; a set of glands that secrete
hormones into the bloodstream
Endocrine Glands pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal, and pineal glands
Endocrine Tissue hypothalamus, pancreas, thymus, gonads, heart, stomach, and small intestine
Cardiovascular system The transport system of the body responsible for carrying oxygen and nutrients
to the body and carrying away carbon dioxide and other wastes; composed of
the heart, blood vessels, and blood.
Lymphatic system Composed of a network of vessels, ducts, nodes, and organs. Provides defense
against infection.
Respiratory system Brings oxygen into the body. Gets rid of carbon dioxide.
