unit 10 - animal systems Flashcards
defense systems
integumentary
- hair, skin, nails
- protects from injury
- prevents body from drying out
defense systems
skeletal
- bones, cartilage, ligaments, tendons
- protexts internal organs
- provides shape & support
- enables movement
defense systems
immune
- aka lymphatic
- white blood cells, lymph nodes
- defends body from pathogens
defense systems
muscular
- skeletal, smooth, cardiac muscles
- works w/ skeletal system to enable movement
absorption & delivery systems
digestive
- mouth, esophagus, stomach, intestines, anus
- absorbs nutrients & expels waste
absorption & dellivery systems
respiratory
- lungs, traches, mouth, nose
- facilitates exchange of CO2 & O2
absorption & delivery systems
circulatory
- heart, veins, arteries, capillaries, red blood cells
- transports blood cells, nutrients & gases
absorption & delivery systems
urinary
- kidneys, bladder, ureters, urethra
defense interactions
immune & skeletal
skeletal produces white blood cells needed to defend body
defense interactions
immune & circulatory
white blood cells that attack pathogens (bacteria/viruses) are transmitted thry blood vessels
absorption & delivery interactions
circulatory & digestive
blood carries nutrients thru digestion to body cells
absorption & delivery interactions
circulatory & respiratory
exchange od CO2 & O2 throughout body
absorption & delivery systems
circulatory & urinary
kidneys dilter waste/water from blood & excrete it as urine
absorption & delivery interactions
circulatory & endocrine
pancreas secretes insulin & other enzymes to digest food
absorption & delivery interactions
digestive & muscular
smooth muscle contractions help move food thru digestive tract
