My extra TEAS

heart, blood vessels - arteries, veins, arterioles blood supports circulation and distribution of various substances throughout the body - oxygen, nutrients, hormones

endocrine system - hormones influence blood pressure urinary - regulates blood volume and pressure nervous system - controls blood pressure, heart rate, and distribution of blood estrogen helps to preserve vascular health integumentary - allows heat to escape - dilating blood vessels blood cells are formed in the marrow of the skeletal system

mouth/teeth - begins breakdown of food, saliva contains enzymes esophagus - transports food from mouth to stomach stomach - small intestine (duodenum, jejunum, and ileum) - absorption of nutrients large intestines rectum anus

controls body functions glands secrete hormones to regulate body processes

pineal, pituitary, thalamus, hypothalamus, thryroid, thymus and adrenal glands - regulate growth, metabolism pancreas, testis, ovaries also have endocrine functions

lymphatic system - transport for some hormones muscular system - provides protection for some endocrine glands nervous system - controls the secretion of hormones from the pituitary gland

skin, mucous membranes, hair, nails

respiratory and digestive - provide oxygen and nutrients circulatory - nutrients and oxygen transported to integumentary system lymphatic system - picks up excess fluid from the skin to avoid swelling skeletal system - provides shape and support endocrine - hormones regulate hair growth and hydration skin protects internal organs muscular system - generates heat which the skin expels urinary system - activates vitamin D nervous system - regulates the production of sweat, interprets stimuli, adjusts diameter of blood vessels in the skin

carry lymph - clear fluid rich in antibodies

bones, ligaments, joints, cartilage

endocrine - releases hormones that regulate growth and release of calcium digestive system provides nutrients necessary for the mineralization of bones urinary - activates vitamin D - necessary for calcium absorption into bone muscular system - stress on bones - calcium deposit nervous - recognizes painful sensations cardiovascular - supplies oxygen and nutrients while removing wastes such as lactic acid reproductive system - influences shape integumentary system - provides vitamin D - calcium absorption

endocrine - helps regulate the reabsorption of water and electrolytes in the kidneys liver (digestive) - synthesized urea that must be excreted by kidneys

Deoxygenated blood enters the heart through the superior and inferior vena cava travels to the right atrium, tot he tricuspid valve of the right ventricle blood pushed through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary artery and lungs and picks up oxygen oxygenated blood is then carried back to the heard (by the pulmonary veins) into the left atrium through the mitral valve and into the left ventricle contraction of the left ventricle forces blood through the aortic valve, through the aorta and out into the entire body

air brought from nose/mouth through trachea into bronchial tubes and then lungs

tiny hairs - keep airway clear by removing unwanted material from the lungs line the bronchial tubes
