The human body systems & other body systems each interacts with.

Integumentary system- is the organ system that protects the body from damage. In humans the integumentary system also provides vitamin D synthesis. The integumentary system is also the largest organ system.

Muscular system- is an anatomical system of species that allows it to move. In vertabrates the muscular system is controlled by the nervous system, some muscles like the cardiac muscle can be completely autonomous. 3 different types of muscles: the skeletal muscles, the cardiac/hear muscles, & smooth muscles. The muscles provide strength, balance posture, movement and heat for the body to keep warm.

Skeletal system- provides the shape and form of our bodies in addition to supporting, protecting, allowing bodily movement, making blood for the body, & storing minerals. It has 206 bones to which softer tissues & organs of the body are attached. The vital organs are protected by the skeletal system. The brain is protected by the skull and the heart and lungs are protected by the sternum and rib cage. The skeletal system interacts with the muscular system.

Circulatory system- it passes nutrients, gases, hormones, blood cells, nitrogen waste product, etc. to and from cells in the body. Humans and vertabrates, have a closed cardiovascular system, but some invertabrate groups have an open cardiovascular system. The main parts of this system are the heart, blood, and blood vessels. The digestive system works with the circulatory system to provide the nutrients needed to keep the heart pumping. The cardiovascular system & the lymphatic system collectively make up the circulatory system.

Digestive system- is made up of the digestive tract, which is a series of organs joined in a long, twisting tube from the mouth to the anus and to other organs which help the body absorb and break down food. The organs that make up the digestive tract are: the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine(colon), rectum, and the anus. Some parts of the nervous and circulatory systems, and the smooth muscle play major roles in the digestive system.

Nervous system- its a network of specialized cells that communicate information about organisms surroundings and itself, it processes the information and causes reactions in other parts of the body. It is made up of neurons and other specialized cells called glial cells(plural for glia) which aid in the fuction of the neurons. The nervous system is divided into two systems: the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system.

Endocrine system- is a system of glands that involve the release of extracellular signaling molecules known as hormones. This system is instrumental in regulating metabolism, growth, development and puberty, and tissue function and it also plays a part in determining mood.

Reproductive system- is a system of organs inside an organism, that works together for the purpose of reproduction. Fluids, hormones, and pheromones are important accessories to the reproductive system. Major organs in the human reproductive system are the external genitalia also the internal organs, the gamete which produces gonads.

Respiratory system- function is to allow gas exchange. The respiratory system has airways, lungs, and the respiratory muscles.

Excretory system(including the urinary)- this is a system of organs that removes waste products from the body. The kidneys are considered the main excretory organs in humans. The waste leaves the body in form of urine. Other systems involved in the excretory system are the respiratory system, the digestive system, and the skin(removing waste as sweat).

Immune/lymphatic system- is a part of our general body defenses against disease. It functions by recognizing bacteria and viruses and converting the information into hormones which activate the immune process. The immune system has been broken down into different "lines of defenses" which are the: mechanical barriers, chemical barriers, phagocytosis, natural killer cells, inflammation, and fever. The function of the lymph system is to remove exess tissue fluids that dont return through the circulatory system. It is also responsible for absorbing protein form this fluid and returning it to the blood.
