A
  1. integumentary system provides protection and includes the skin

2.The skeletal system protects the internal organs and supports the body by providing a rigid anchor-ing point for muscles.

  1. The muscular system provides movement by pulling on the bones, causing them to move. Muscles are also involved in digestion and circulation

4.The digestive system supplies the body with energy by absorbing food. It also eliminates wastes.

5.The reproductive system creates and protects new human life.

  1. The circulatory system transports blood, which carries oxygen, food, and other substances throughout the body.

7.The urinary system eliminates cer-tain types of wastes and maintains the right amount of water in the body.

8.The respiratory system exchanges oxygen from the atmosphere with carbon dioxide in the blood stream.

9.The lymphatic system helps protect the body from threats such as bacteria and viruses. It is part of the larger immune system.

10.The nervous system
coordinates and controls movement and processes information from the sensory organs, such as the eyes and ears.
