glands secrete hormones that regulate processes such as growth,reproduction and nutrients used by cells in the body
pituitary gland,thyroid gland,parathyroid glands,adrenal glands,pancreas,ovaries and testicles
diabetes,cushing's disease,addison's disease
Muscular System
maintains posture,locomotion,facial expressions,produces heat
skeletal,smooth and cardiac muscles

Skeletal System
protects and supports body's organs, provides a framework for muscles,stores minerals, blood cells are formed in bones
bones,connective tissue,including cartilage,tendons and ligaments
osteopenia, osteoporosis,rickets,leukemia
Integumentary System
protects deeper tissue from injury;synthesis of vitamin d,location of sensory receptors and sweat and oil glands
skin,nails,subcutaneous tissue,glands
skin cancer, bacterial or fungal infections
Nervous System
sending and receiving electrical impulses,regulating temperature
central nervous system: brain and spinal cord; peripheral nervous system nerves that branch from the spinal cord to the rest of the body
muscle weakness, memory loss,lack of coordination
Reproductive system
overall function is the production of offspring
Female: ovaries,fallopian tubes,uterus,vagina Male:penis,scrotum,testes,prostate
Female: polycystic ovarian syndrome,infertility Male: testicular cancer,testicular torsion
Lymphatic System
clears away infection and keeps body fluids in balance
fluid, vessels that transport lymph and organs that contain lymphoid tissue
infections,blockages and cancer
Urinary System
filters unwanted substances from the blood and produces urine to excrete them
kidneys,renal pelvis,ureters,bladder and urethra
bladder infections,kidney infections,incontinence
