composed of complicated and intricate systems that work together to keep us alive and able to move and process the things we find to be simple such as breathing or blinking. There are 11 systems in our body‚ each in charge of something different and supplying support to the other. Those 11 systems are the‚ nervous‚ skeletal‚ muscular‚ circulatory‚ respiratory‚ digestive‚ endocrine‚ reproductive‚ excretory‚ integumentary and immune systems. I will address every system in the human body as well as provide

The parotid glands‚ the sublingual and the submaxillary grans secret saliva to help the process of chewing food. Saliva contain salivary amylase enzyme responsible for breaking down sugars and starches. The epiglottis prevents food from entering the larynx-at the upper-part of the respiratory system. The tongue helps also to swallow the food

The Circulatory System The circulatory system in anatomy and physiology is the course taken by the blood through the arteries‚ capillaries‚ and veins and back to the heart. In humans and the higher vertebrates‚ the heart is made up of four chambers the right and left auricles‚ or atria‚ and the right and left ventricles. The right side of the heart pumps oxygen-poor blood from the cells of the body back to the lungs for new oxygen; the left side of the heart receives blood rich in oxygen from

The primary function of the digestive system is to break down food and help your body absorb the nutrients from this food. The digestive system is made up of the digestive tract‚ which includes the esophagus‚ stomach and intestines and other organs that aid in digestion such as the liver‚ pancreas and gall bladder. The breaking down of food for digestion begins in your mouth. As you eat something‚ your teeth break down the food‚ and your saliva helps to breakdown and it moistens the food so
