Anatomy of the Human Body

The human body is mixture of cells that make up tissues that make up organs that make up organ systems. The organ systems that are going to be wrote about is the digestive system, the circulatory system, the respiratory system, the nervous system, and the skeletal and muscular system; all these systems are what make the human body function the way it does. The cells have to communicate to get some of these jobs done, and I will write about how cells do communicate to get the jobs done. The body’s systems interact to maintain homeostasis, homeostasis is the equilibrium of the body. The systems work together through communication to maintain homeostasis and the …show more content…

The skeletal muscles throughout the body are muscles that connect to the skeletal system via tendons, the use of these muscles are to make the movement of the skeletal system. The smooth muscles in the body are the muscles that can not control their movement, smooth muscles are found around some organs. The cardiac muscles are the heart muscles, the heart is a muscle itself, and it does not take any breaks, it pumps blood throughout the body every second of everyday the being that it is in is alive, for the most part. The bones in the body are throughout the body according to livescience.com are used for “support, movement, protection, blood cell production, calcium storage, and endocrine regulation”. Cartilage is tissue, cartilage is found where the body needs a little more flex than in more places (interactive-biology.com). Ligaments in the body are found where joints are, actually joints are made up of many ligaments. The two systems work with the other systems to provide support and allow movement throughout the body, the systems work together by having the nervous system send signals to skeletal muscles in the body, which then contract to produce movement. In bone marrow blood cells are made due to hemocytoblasts and with the right elements creates
