Explanation:
1. Digestive system process: Food is ingested through the mouth and broken down through mastication. The broken-down food is then absorbed into the bloodstream from the small intestine and the nutrients are carried to each cell in the body.
2. The urinary system filters out excess fluid and other substances from the bloodstream. It is to eliminate wastes from the body, regulate blood volume and pressure, control levels of electrolytes and metabolites, and regulate blood pH.
3. The respiratory system is a biological system consisting of specific organs and structures used for gas exchange in animals and plants.
4. The skeletal system works as a support structure for your body. It gives the body its shape, allows movement, makes blood cells, provides protection for organs and stores minerals.
5. The muscular system is an organ system consisting of skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscles. It permits movement of the body, maintains posture and circulates blood throughout the body.
6. The integumentary system protects the body's internal living tissues and organs, protects against invasion by infectious organism, and protects the body from dehydration.
7. The cardiovascular system's main function is to transport nutrients to cells and wastes from cells.
8. The endocrine glands secrete hormones into the surrounding interstitial fluid; those hormones then diffuse into blood and are carried to various organs and tissues within the body for regulation of cellular activities.
9. The peripheral nervous system (PNS) consists of sensory receptors to communicate with other parts of the body.
10. The reproductive organs are responsible for producing the egg and sperm cells (gametes), and hormones. These structures transport and sustain the gametes and nurture the developing offspring.
