Body Systems - Mind Map

Body Systems

Unrinary system

Urethra

Lets urine leave your bladder and your body

Kidney

Remove wastes and extra fluid from your body

Bladder

Stores Urine

Lymphatic System

Lymph nodes

Monitor the lymph flowing into
them and produce cells and
antibodies

Thymus

Lymphatic vessels

carry lymph through the
body to lymph nodes and
back to veins.

Bone marrow

White blood cells are made in the bone marrow

Spleen

Monitors the blood and detect and respond to pathogens and malignant cells.

Collects and circulates excess fluid in the body.

Endocrine System

Female Ovaries

Play an important role in female traits, such as breast development, body shape, and body hair

Pituitary

It monitors and regulates many bodily functions through the hormones that it produces

Thyroid

Plays a major role in the metabolism, growth and development of the human body

Adrenal Glands

Produce hormones that help regulate your metabolism, immune system, blood pressure, response to stress and other essential functions.

Muscular System

Tendons

Serve to move the bone or structure

Ligaments

Connect bones and help stabilize joints.

Soft tissues

Connects and supports other tissues and surround the organs in the body.

Muscles

Supports movement

Bones

Provides a framework for your
muscles and other soft tissues.

Helps the body move
and do daily activities.

Integumentary System

Epidermis

Protects your body from the outside world, keeping your skin hydrated, producing new skin cells and determining your skin color.

Dermis

Support and protect the skin and deeper layers, assist in thermoregulation, and aid in sensation.

Hypodermis

Insulating your body, protecting your body from harm, storing energy and connecting your skin to your muscles and bones.

Nails

Helps us pick things up (like food), pick things off (like bugs), and hold tightly onto things.

They carry oxygen
to your lungs.

Hair

It protects the body against trauma and also against ultraviolet damage.

Associated glands

Secrete fluids that enter the urethra

Form a physical barrier between the external environment and the internal environment

Nervous System

Brain

The seat of intelligence, interpreter of the senses, initiator of body movement, and controller of behavior

Spinal Cord

Sends motor commands from the brain to the body, send sensory information from the body to the brain, and coordinate reflexes

Reproductive System

Ovaries

Produce hormones that help with your menstrual cycle and pregnancy.

Store and release an egg each cycle for fertilization

Testes

Making sperm and are also involved in producing a hormone called testosterone

Vagina

Provides a passageway for blood and mucosal tissue from the uterus during a woman's monthly period.

Receives the penis during sexual intercourse and holds the sperm until they pass into the uterus

Provides a passageway for childbirth

Prostate

Produces a fluid that, together with sperm cells from the testicles and fluids from other glands, makes up semen

Penis

The male organ used for urination and sexual intercourse

Fallopian Tubes

Connect the ovaries to the uterus

Cervix

Connects the body of the uterus to the vagina

Uterus

To nourish the developing fetus prior to birth

Respiratory System

Throat(pharynx)

The throat is a passage way for air, food and liquids. It connects the mouth to the trachea

Mouth

Opening that pulls air from
outside your body into your
respiratory system.

Nose

It allows air to enter your body, then filters debris and warms and moistens the air.

Voice box(larynx)

It protects the lower respiratory tract from aspirating food into the trachea while breathing.

Large airways

Another passage for air to pass
through while inhaling or exhaling.

Small airways

The last tunnel that connects the
trachea to the lungs.

Lungs

When you inhale air enters your lungs, and oxygen from that air moves to your blood. At the same time, carbon dioxide, a waste gas gets exhaled.

It moves fresh air into your body while
removing waste gases. Without the respiratory system humans wouldn't be
able to breathe.

Trachea(windpipe)

Circulatory System

Veins

Arteries

Help blood move around the body

Heart

Pumps blood around your body

Blood

Carries carbon dioxide to the
lungs and picks up oxygen

Blood vessels

Capillaries

The system moves blood throughout the body. It helps tissues get enough oxygen and nutrients, and it helps them get rid of waste products.

Digestive system

Mouth

Makes food softer so
it's easier to digest.

Small intestine

It helps to further digest food coming from the stomach.

Large intestine

The large intestine absorbs
water and changes the waste
from liquid into stool.

Stomach

The stomach muscles mix the
food and liquid with digestive
juices.

Throat(pharynx)

Delivers food and liquid
to the digestive system.

Esophagus

Rectum

Stores waste

Anus

Gets rid of body waste

Skeletal system

Shoulder blades

Protects the upper back

Collarbone

Provides a brace for the shoulder

Pelvic girdle

Supports the weight of the upper body when sitting and to support the lower limbs when standing.

Skull

Protects the brain

Rib cages

Provides support for the upper organs.

Vertebral column

Surround and protect the spinal cord

Supports important parts of your body

Malfunctions

Reproductive System

Infertility and the loss of the beneficial effects of estrogen and progesterone, including benefits to bone and heart health

Tracking ovulation, egg freezing, genetic screening, uterine transplants, artificial insemination and assisted reproductive technology.

Respiratory System

The usual exchange between oxygen and carbon dioxide (CO2) in the lungs does not occur. As a result, the heart, brain, and other organs cannot get enough oxygen. A person may feel sleepy or faint.

Pacemakers send electrical pulses to help your heart beat at a normal rate and rhythm. This can prevent faints in the future

Circulatory System

It leads to necrosis and eventually death of an individual caused due to the lack of oxygen, nutrients and build of toxins within the body.

Technology can monitor the amount of nutrition you need and also can help make breathing easier for people who need it.

Muscular System

You won't be able to properly operate the affected parts of your body

Stimulating muscles repeatedly with electricity may eventually result in muscles that are strengthened

Skeletal System

The person will be left unable to move or even breath on their own as the bones support not only body movement

X-ray vision can help detect a broken bone.
Also if your arms or legs are temporarily broken you can get a prosthetic arm or leg

Lymphatic System

Fluid builds in your tissues and causes swelling, called lymphedema

A lymphedema machine can help treat
lymphedema. It works by putting pressure on the area of swelling and encourages the movement of lymph fluid around the lymph vessels.

Endocrine System

Leads to fatigue, weakness, unintended weight fluctuations, and changes in blood glucose levels or cholesterol levels.

Flash glucose monitors and continuous glucose monitors let you check your sugar levels without you having to prick your fingers. You wear a small sensor on your body day and night that reads your sugar levels so you can see the information on your mobile, or other device.

Nervous System

You can have trouble moving, speaking, swallowing, breathing, or learning. You can also have problems with your memory, senses, or mood

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) is a non-invasive treatment using mild continuous stream of air to keep the airway open.

Urinary System

Your blood would be full of waste products and extra water. This could cause other systems, like the cardiovascular system, to malfunction and cause serious health issues.

Internal sphincter implant. A doctor injects a specific material within your urethral wall. This material then bulks up and tightens the urethra, helping control your urine flow

Digestive System

Cause various symptoms, including abdominal pain, diarrhea, and constipation. Left untreated, they can lead to serious complications, such as malnutrition, dehydration, and even death.

A digital stimulation can be used to
cure constipation.

Integumentary System

A person would be much more susceptible to: Damage to their internal organs and structures

X-ray imaging can help when an
internal organ is damaged or is at risk of being damaged
