Transport System of Organisms Problems faced by Multicellular Organisms: a)Big size-the total surface area to volume (TSA/V) is decreased . Rate of diffusion of substances into and out of all body cells is low. b)Cells are often located far away from the external surface of the body. How multicellular organism overcome these problem? a)Have specialized structure to increase the surface area for the exchange of respiration gases. b)Have transport system to get gases respiration in and

The human body has eleven main body systems. They are groups of bodily organs coming together to keep the human body going; they can perform one or more functions. The eleven body systems consist of the skeletal system‚ muscular system‚ nervous system‚ circulatory system‚ immune system‚ endocrine system‚ digestive system‚ excretory system‚ respiratory system‚ integumentary system‚ and the reproductive system. The skeletal system is the foundation to the body containing 206 bones and movable and

Option 2 – HS130-05 Discuss the morphology of the lymphatic system. Also‚ compare B and T lymphocytes and their roles in immunity. The lymphatic system is responsible for helping the human body fight against diseases and illnesses. This system consists of ducts‚ organs and nodes and transports fluid called lymph. The system contains cells called lymphocytes. Lymphocytes protect the body from antigens. The ducts of the lymphatic system are the home for B-cells and T-cells‚ these ducts also provide

consists of eleven major organ systems that maintain homeostasis: the skeletal‚ muscular‚ circulatory‚ nervous‚ respiratory‚ digestive‚ urinary‚ endocrine‚ reproductive‚ integumentary and lymphatic systems. These organ systems are dependent on each other to keep the human body in homeostasis. For example‚ the nervous and endocrine systems coordinate functions of other body systems because they allow information to be communicated throughout the body. The nervous system consists of the brain‚ nerves
