Integumentary function
Acts as a abarrier to protect deeper tissues, regulates temperature, controls water loss
Nervous functions
Acts as a signla to the body that send messages tot he brain and or the spinal cord if there is a change or irritant from the outsde of the body
Skeletal functions
SUpports and provides a framework to help the skeletal muscles use to move and acts as a protective layer
Endocrine functions
Controls the bodies activities produces hormones and releases them to the blood to travel to organ
Muscular function
Contract and shorten to create movement in the body
Cardiovascular functions
Uses blood to transfer oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and other things to and from the tissue cells
Lymphatic functions
Returns fluids to the blood to help the blood recycle blood through the blood vessels to keep it circulating: They also help cleanse the blood and house cells involved with immunity
Digestive functions
Break down food and deliver products to the blood to be dispersed through the blood or comes out of the body as feces
Respiratory Functions
Keeps the body supplied with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide
URinary Functions
Produces wastes as by-products and removes the nitrogen-containing waste form the blood and flushes them from the body in urine; maintains the body’s water and salt balance and the acids in the blood
Reproductive functions
To produce offspring
MAle produces sperms
Female produces eggs or ova and provide the sit for the development of the fetus once fertilized
Anatomical position
Terminology helps anatomists discuss parts of the body easily and efficiently
-Body is straight with feet slightly apart and thumbs pointed away from the body
directional terms
median surface
Separates left from right evenly
Frontal plane
separates anterior from posterior
transverse plane
separates superior from inferior
