Q

Skeletal System

A

Supports and protects body

site of blood cell production

23
Q

Integumentary System

A

protects and regulates body temperature.

24
Q

Muscular System

A

Movement

Generates heat

25
Endocrine System
Secretes hormones to regulate body and cellular growth
26
Nervous system
controls movement responds to sensory stimuli controls all other systems responsible for consciousness, intelligence, memory
27
Cardiovascular System
distributes hormones, nutrients, gasses, and cleans up waste
28
Respiratory System
gas exchange
29
Lymphatic System
filters lymph | Initiates immune response
30
Digestive system
Mechanically and chemically digests food, absorbs nutrients, expels waste
31
Male Reproductive System
Produces sperm | produces testosterone
32
Urinary System
Filters Blood and removes waste
33
Female reproductive system
produces oocytes and female hormones
