The 11 Organ Systems are - ✔️✔️Respiratory / Digestive / Endocrine / Lymphatic /
Muscular / Skeletal / Male-Female Reproductive / Integumentary / Nervous /
Cardiovascular / Urinary
What is the urinary system responsible for? - ✔️✔️Eliminates nitrogenous wastes from
the body. Regulates water, electrolyte, and acid base balance of the blood
, What is the cardiovascular system responsible for? - ✔️✔️Blood vessels transport
blood, which carries oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, wastes, etc. The heart pumps
blood
What is the nervous system responsible for? - ✔️✔️Control system of the body,
responds to internal and external change by activating appropriate muscles and glands
What is the male/ female reproductive system responsible for? - ✔️✔️Overall
production and development of offspring
What is the skeletal system responsible for? - ✔️✔️Protects and supports body organs
and provides framework the muscles use to cause movement
What is the muscular system responsible for? - ✔️✔️Allows manipulation of the
environment, locomotion, and facial expression Maintains posture and produces heat
What is the lymphatic system responsible for? - ✔️✔️Picks up fluid leaked from blood
vessels and returns it to blood. Houses white blood cells and the immune system
What is the endocrine system responsible for? - ✔️✔️Glands that secrete hormones
that regulate processes such as growth, reproduction, and nutrient use (metabolism) by
body cells
What is the respiratory system responsible for? - ✔️✔️Keeps blood constantly supplied
with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide
What is the digestive system responsible for? - ✔️✔️Breaks down the food into
absorbable units that enter the blood for distribution to body cells and eliminates excess
as feces
What are the 5 basic survival needs for the cells? - ✔️✔️nutrients / oxygen (O₂) / Water
/ Normal Body Temperature / Appropriate Atmospheric Pressure
What are the 8 vital functional activities necessary for life? - ✔️✔️maintenance of
boundaries / movement / responsiveness / digestion / metabolism / excretion /
reproduction / growth
What is the serosa? - ✔️✔️A thin double layered membrane that covers the outer
surfaces of the organs and the walls of the ventral cavity
What is the Parietal Serosa? - ✔️✔️The part of the membrane lining the cavity walls
