Digestive Processes foods and absorbs nutrients, minerals, vitamins, and water Mouth, salivary glands, esophagus, stomach, liver, gallbladder, exocrine pancreas, small intestine, and large intestine
Endocrine
Provides communication within the body via hormones and directs long-term change in other organ systems to maintain homeostasis Pituitary, pineal, thyroid, parathyroids, endocrine pancreas, adrenals, testes, and ovaries.
Integumentary Provides protection from injury and fluid loss and provides physical defense against infection by microorganisms; involved in temperature control Skin, hair, and nails
Muscular Provides movement, support, and heat production Skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles
Nervous Collects
, transfers, and processes information and directs short-term change in other organ systems Brain, spinal cord, nerves, and sensory organs—eyes, ears, tongue, skin, and nose
Reproductive Produces gametes—sex cells—and sex hormones; ultimately produces offspring Fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina, ovaries, mammary glands (female), testes, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate, and penis (male)
Respiratory
Delivers air to sites where gas exchange can occur Mouth, nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, lungs, and diaphragm
Skeletal Supports and protects soft tissues of the body; provides movement at joints; produces blood cells; and stores minerals Bones, cartilage, joints, tendons, and ligaments
Urinary
Removes excess water, salts, and waste products from the blood and body and controls pH Kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra
Immune Defends against microbial pathogens—disease-causing agents—and other diseases Leukocytes, tonsils, adenoids, thymus, and spleen
