here's a mini self revision.. the following is just a small intro to body systems and i test myself w/o any notes... here i go....
1. Digestive system (stomach, liver,intestines)
Function: ingestion and processing of foodstuff for distribution and use by cells and the elimination of waste products.
2. Circulatory System (blood, heart, blood vessels)
Function:transport of materials between cells
3. Respiratory System (lungs, airways)
Function:the exchange of gases(oxygen and carbon dioxide) between internal and external environment.
4. Musculoskeletal system (skeletal muscles, bones)
Function:To provide structural support and movements
5. Integumentary System (skin)
Function:to provide protection from external environment
6. Urinary System (kidneys, bladders)
Function:To maintain water an solute balance and elimination of water soluble waste.
7. Nervous System (brain, spinal cord)
Function:To provide coordination of body function through the release of electrical signals and regulatory molecules
8. Endocrine System (pituitary, thyroid, adrenal glands)
Function:to provide coordination of body function through the synthesis and release of regulatory molecules (hormones)
9. Immune system (thymus, spleen, lymph nodes)
Function:To protect the body against pathogens
10. Reproductive System (ovaires, uterus, testes)
Function: For perpetuation of the species
This is the first set of notes onli thats why so little info... from here on its goes downhill.... haha
just an intro to body systems..
-.-
from then on we go into each system and cellular processes, all the variations and stuff. quite some detail le and then they say its for further intro to future years and its just the tip of the ice berg...
-.-
for eg the immune system...
got neutrophils, macrophages, B cells and T cells and how they control inflammation by releasing cytokines and interleukins and how the antigens bind to different receptors. How they are activated and the receptors got various isotypes and proliferate by clonal selection so on....
more to come in later details....
my nervous system shutting down le... haha.. gd nite..
