The integumentary system plays a huge role in homeostasis because the integumentary system contains the skin‚ the skin is the bodies outermost organ. The skin is able to regulate body temperature by controlling how the body interacts with its surroundings. The ultraviolet light striking our skin is also important to our homeostasis. We need vitamin D‚ for the absorption of calcium from food (Seeleys

anatomy it provides a line of communication to avoid confusion when identifying structures. Body planes are used to specify sections or regions of the body. This approach is common when studying particular organs and its surrounding functions. Body cavity is a hollow space surrounded by organs.

It was not primarily used as an organ of digestion‚ but it secreted a digestive enzyme called bile. The bile was used to break down fats. Then‚ the esophagus‚ small intestines‚ spleen‚ large intestines‚ male reproductive organs‚ and fat bodies were located and observed. The esophagus was a tube that led from the frog’s mouth to the stomach. This dark-colored structure was used

cloning human organs or body parts to treat patients with injured organs or limb deficiencies could be possible. “The cloning techniques can also be used to grow organs for patients with a failing liver or kidney.” Because the newly cloned organ will be genetically identical to the one being replaced‚ rather than a donated one‚ the chances of it being rejected will be very low. Ultimately‚ this opens up many possibilities of curing patients with injuries‚ amputations‚ and failing organs. Stem cell research

Next‚ the heart and blood vessels combine to make up the cardiovascular system‚ making the 6th level of organization‚ the organ system level. Finally‚ all the organ systems in the body combine to make up the organism‚ completing the final level of structural organization‚ the organism level. 3.

PETA reveals that researchers restrain rabbits and inject material into their bloodstream and then observe increases of temperature in their body. Through these tests‚ rabbits are prone to suffer from “fever‚ breathing problems‚ circulatory and organ failure‚ and even fatal shock” (PETA – “Pyrogenicity”). The American Anti-Vivisection Society claims that most data from these tests are inaccurate because age and gender differences play role in the outcome as well. One alternative that is currently
