Musculoskeletal system Provides support, form, movement, and protection to the body. It is made up of bones, cartilage, and muscle. Diseases: Arthritis- The loss of mobility in the joints where joint tissues start to tear and degenerate. Osteoporosis- too much calcium is dissolved so the bones becomes too weak. Tendonitis- repeated strain to a tendon, can inflame the tendon and cause it to swell. Osteomalacia- if there is not enough calcium, the bones don't become hard, but too soft.

NERVOUS SYSTEM The nervous system is a complex collection of nerves and specialized cells known as neurons that transmit signals between different parts of the body. It’s the body's electrical wiring and function. Diseases: Alzheimer's- this affects brain function, behavior, and memory of a person. Trauma- When a stressful experience pushes the system beyond its limits, it can become active with no stops. Because of this we experience anxiety, panic, anger, hyperactivity, and restlessness.

CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM Blood circulates through a network of vessels in the body to provide cells with oxygen and nutrients and to dispose metabolic wastes. The heart pumps the blood around the blood vessels. Diseases: Heart attack- happens when the blood to the heart is cut off and declines. Heart failure- when the heart's ability to pump becomes slower. Arrhythmia- a change in the normal frequency of a heartbeat. Cardiomyopathy- causes the heart to become abnormally large and stiff.

RESPIRATORY SYSTEM Helps your body absorb oxygen from the air so your organs can work. It also cleans waste gases, such as carbon dioxide, from your blood. Diseases: Asthma- difficulty to breath cause my inflammation to the lungs. Lung Cancer- DNA mutations in the lungs cause irregular cells to multiply and create an uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. Chronic Bronchitis- mucus from the lungs is coughed out because of the mucus glands increase output. Emphysema- Those who suffer from emphysema have trouble exhaling air from their lungs. Careers: Respiratory therapist- diagnose breathing problems and suggest treatment options to patients. Allergist- An allergist is a doctor specialized in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with allergies. They look at the body's immune system and determine what needs to be fixed or improved

REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM Function is to produce egg and sperm cells. To transport and sustain these cells. To nurture the developing offspring. Careers:Gynecologists deal with the health of the female reproductive system. The term gynecology literally means the study of women. Andrology is the medical profession dealing with the health of the male reproductive system. It is the counterpart to gynecology and literally means the study of men. Diseases: Endometriosis- a condition involving colonization of the abdominal cavity with islands of endometrial tissue. Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)- the female abdominal cavity has a direct anatomical path from the outside world via the female reproductive tract. Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)- although males have a closed abdominal cavity, the female abdominal cavity has a direct anatomical path from the outside world via the female reproductive tract. Episiotomy- a surgical procedure cutting into the perineal area, the area between the vagina and anus

REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM Vocab: Key Terms: Scrotum the external pouch that contains the testicles,just under the Cervic- neck penis. Vas Deferens sperm moving the sperm from the epididymis up to the seminal Salping-tube(uterine) vesicle Seminal vesicle Ov-ovum leaf-shaped gland that produces nutrients to sperm and adds to semen fluid Prostate gland Orchid-testes gland that surrounds the urethra, responsible for the urinary response Oophor-ovary Cowper's gland Cleanses the acidic urine left in penis. Ejaculatory Duct tube through which semem enters the male urethra Men-menstruation Foreskin loose fold of skin that covers the end of the penis; removed Mamm-breast during circumcision.
