Human Body Systems
Levels of Organization
1- cells
2- tissues
3- organs
4- organ systems
5- organism
Each system works together to
help us function and survive
Skeletal System
Skeletal System
• The framework of your body and it is made
of 206 living bones (300 in babies)
5 Functions of the skeletal system
1. Gives shape and support to your body
2. Protects your internal organs
=
3. Muscles attached to your bones help you
move
4. Marrow in the center of bones makes
blood cells (2.5 million/second)
5. Bones store calcium and phosphorus for
our body
- Ca helps our heart and muscles work
- P helps our cells produce and store energy
- When stored in our bones, Ca and P help make bones
stronger
Muscular System
Over 600 muscles make movement
possible
2 Functions of the Muscular
System
1. Helps your body move
2. Produces heat for your body (through
exercise or shivering)
Integumentary System
• Our largest system, made up of one
organ:
– Skin
4 Functions
1. Protection
2. Sensory
Response
3. Vitamin D formation

4. Maintain body temperature- using blood
vessels constricting and sweating
Digestive System
Helps provide energy for our body
1 Function:
• Break down food into small molecules so it
can be absorbed and moved by the blood
stream which delivers it to your cells for
energy.
Circulatory System
A delivery system
2 Functions
1. Blood delivers nutrients
(food) and oxygen to cells so
they can function.
2. Blood removes waste products, like
carbon dioxide, from cells.
Respiratory System
Exchanges air
1 Function
– Supplies body with
fresh oxygen
(needed by cells)
and removes
carbon dioxide
(waste product)

Both circulatory and respiratory
systems work closely together
Excretory System
Any system that eliminates wastes
Included in excretory system
are:
• Digestive-water and
undigested food out
• Respiratory- carbon
dioxide and water out
• Skin-sweat and salts
out
• Urinary-water,
metabolic wastes and
salts out
Urinary System: Function
• It filters your blood and removes wastes
produced by your cells
• Fluid levels in the body are also
maintained by the urinary system
Nervous System
A control system
Function
• Allows your body to react to your
environment and stimuli.
Endocrine System
A control system for your body
Functions
• Uses chemicals (hormones) to:
a. Regulate internal environment
Functions
b. Adapt to stressful situations
Functions
c. Promote growth and development
Functions
d. Coordinate circulation, digestion, and
absorption of food.
