List of the Systems in the Human Body

In a body, there are 11 system in working in co-ordinated manner.

Every system has its own work ex. Cardiovascular system has function of pumping the blood to all body.

However, each system is important. All the systems of the body are independent but interconnected.

1)    Circulatory system
2)    Digestive system
3)    Endocrine system
4)    Integumentary system
5)    Lymphatic system
6)    Muscular system
7)    Nervous system
8)    Excretory system
9)    Reproductive system
10)          Respiratory system
11)          Skeletal system

Circulatory system

Circulatory system is consist of heart, blood which work co-ordinately to carry out function.

The major function of circulatory system is to maintain the circulation of blood throughout the body.

Digestive system

Digestive system consist of mouth, esophagus, stomach, intestinal areas.

The main function is digestion, absorption, elimination of food. It starts from the mouth and end with anus. 

Endocrine system

Endocrine system concern with production of the hormone. 

Endocrine system produces hormone through endocrine glands, such as pancreas, ovaries, testes, thyroid gland etc.

Integumentary system

The integumentary system is consisting of skin and outer layer of the body.

The main functions of integumentary system are, maintaining normal temperature, maintaining hydration and prevention of skin from infection.

It works with the hair in over body and internal skin layers.

Lymphatic system

Lymphatic system is similar to circulatory system. A difference is, lymphatic system is open system and carry lymph fluid. As it is not closed system, it carries continuous inner and outer flow in vessels to maintain viscosity in blood vessels.

Lymphatic system maintains the fluid in the interstitial spaces of cells.

Muscular system

Muscular system control and manage all the muscle activity of the body.

Nervous system

Nervous system is mainly categorized in three headings as CNS, ANS and PNS. Brain and spinal cord are two important organs of nervous system. Nervous system co-ordinates various neurons in the body.

Excretory system

This system consists of kidney, ureter, bladder and anus. It deals with the formation of urine and excretion of fecal material.

Reproductive system

Reproductive system is of male reproductive system and female reproductive system. These systems are responsible for producing offspring (children).

Respiratory system

The main function of respiratory system is to inhale oxygen and exhale the carbon dioxide through nose. The mixing of oxygen in blood is done by respiratory system through lungs.

Skeletal system

Skeletal system related with the bony structure form all over the body. It deals with changes of skeletal structure with time and physiological changes.
