List the 11 organ systems of the body.
Circulatory, Lymphatic, Respiratory, Integumentary, Endocrine, Digestive, Urinary/Excretory, Musculoskeletal, Nervous, Immune, and Reproductive
What organ system circulates oxygen and nutrients throughout your body while removing carbon dioxide and waste?
Circulatory/Cardiovascular system
What organ system acts as the body's drainage system, crucial for immunity, blood pressure regulation, and digestion?
Lymphatic system
What organ system manages breathing, moving air in and out of the body, and facilitates oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange in the bloodstream?
Respiratory system
What organ system protects the body from the external environment and helps regulate body temperature?
Integumentary system
What organ system mostly regulates metabolism and uses the products of digestion?
Endocrine system
What organ system is responsible for breaking down foods into nutrients, which the body needs for energy, growth, and cell repair?
Digestive system
What organ system filters blood and removes toxins and waste from body tissues to help regulate blood pressure?
Urinary/Excretory system
What organ system provides the framework and the engine for our movement, posture, and physical abilities?
Musculoskeletal system
What organ system provides your body's structure, facilitates its mobility, produces blood and lymph cells, stores fat and key minerals like calcium in the body?
Skeletal system
What organ system acts like a network that makes it possible for different parts of the body to communicate with one another?
Nervous system
What organ system helps the body fight against infection and other diseases whose organs are borrowed from other organ systems?
Immune system
What organ system is the only one that is not complete in any one body and requires another person (or medical intervention) to complete its mission to produce offspring?
Reproductive system
