Unit 1- Principles of Anatomy and Physiology Functions of the skeletal system There are five main functions of the skeletal system. To protect‚ to support‚ movement‚ cell production and storage. The skeletal system protects delicate and important organs from harm. An example of this is the ribcage. This protects your heart and lungs from anything that tries to harm it. Another example is the brain. The brain is protected by the skull. The skeletal system also provides support for the body as it

body The three systems in our body that work together are cardiovascular‚ respiratory and digestive systems which supply energy to the cells of the body. I will be describing their role of energy in the body system; also I am going to explain the physiology of the three named body systems in relation to energy metabolism. Respiratory System The respiratory system consists of tissues and organs in our body which are formed into groups. The system includes airways‚ lungs‚ blood vessels and muscles attached

THE ORGANISATION OF THE HUMAN BODY By Rachel Bull CELLS The organelles of cells and their function • Cell (or plasma) membrane - The plasma membrane acts as a boundary and controls what substances can enter and exit the cell. • Cytoplasm - This semi-fluid substance found inside the boundary of the cell and outside the nucleus cushions and protects the internal organelles‚ this is also where the majority of the chemical reactions happen. • Nucleus - The nucleus is the double-membraned central

The following are examples of frequently missed questions from the unit exams. The questions are similar in theme to the ones missed however were taken from blackboard and are not exactly worded like the exam questions. They are meant to act as a study guide only. Please do not have the misconception that these questions will be the exact questions on the final. What you should do is to use these questions as a guide and to research not only why the answer is correct but also why the other answers
