It consists of the heart, blood, blood vessels, arteries and veins. According to the Cleveland Clinic, the human body&#8217;s network of blood vessels, veins and capillaries is around 60,00 miles (around 96,560 kilometres) long.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"bordeaux-static-slot-11\" class=\"bordeaux-slot\" data-feat-ref=\"bordeaux-feat-id-169\"><strong>Digestive system<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The digestive system consists of a sequence of connected organs that together let the body to break down and absorb food, and remove waste. It consists of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, and anus. The liver and pancreas also act a role in the digestive system because they create digestive juices filled with enzymes to break down the elements of your food, such as carbohydrates,\u00a0fats\u00a0and\u00a0proteins, according to the\u00a0National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Endocrine system<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The endocrine system comprises of a network of glands that release hormones into the blood. These hormones, in turn, move to different tissues and control different bodily functions, such as metabolism, growth and sexual function, according to\u00a0Johns Hopkins Medicine. For example, one of the glands in the\u00a0pancreas &#8211; called the endocrine gland &#8211; secretes hormones called insulin and glucagon to control blood sugar.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"bordeaux-static-slot-13\" class=\"bordeaux-slot\" data-feat-ref=\"bordeaux-feat-id-171\"><strong>Immune\u00a0system<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The\u00a0immune system is the body&#8217;s defense against bacteria, viruses and other pathogens that may be dangerous. The immune system is triggered when antigens (proteins on the surface of bacteria, fungi and viruses) bind with receptors on immune cells, alerting the body to their presence and kicking the immune system into gear, according to Institute for Quality and Efficiency in Health Care (IQWiG). The system is made up of I lymph nodes, the spleen, bone marrow, lymphocytes (including B-cells and T-cells), the thymus and leukocytes, which are white blood cells.<\/p>\n<div id=\"bordeaux-static-slot-27\" class=\"bordeaux-slot\" data-feat-ref=\"bordeaux-feat-id-185\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"bordeaux-static-slot-29\" class=\"bordeaux-slot\" data-feat-ref=\"bordeaux-feat-id-187\"><\/div>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\">\n<figure class=\"expandable-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"expandable lazy-image-van loaded\" src=\"https:\/\/vanilla.futurecdn.net\/livescience\/media\/img\/missing-image.svg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-320-80.jpg 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-1200-80.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"A diagram of the all the body's systems\" data-normal=\"https:\/\/vanilla.futurecdn.net\/livescience\/media\/img\/missing-image.svg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-320-80.jpg 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb-1200-80.jpg 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/XMfsY3mALNcyuBbHUoTMkb.jpg\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left\"><strong>Lymphatic system<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The lymphatic system consists of lymph nodes, lymph ducts and lymph vessels, and also plays a role in the body&#8217;s defenses.

The male reproductive system consists of the penis and the testes, which produce sperm. The female reproductive system comprises of the vagina, the uterus and the ovaries, which produce eggs. During conception, a sperm cell combines with an egg cell, which produces a fertilized egg that implants and grows in the uterus.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"bordeaux-static-slot-19\" class=\"bordeaux-slot\" data-feat-ref=\"bordeaux-feat-id-177\"><strong>The Skeletal system<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Our bodies are held up by the skeletal system, which comprises between 206 and 213 bones in an adult human body, which are all connected by tendons, ligaments and cartilage, according to the journal StatPearls. As infants, humans have 270 bones, before some combine together during growth. The skeleton not only aids us to move, but it&#8217;s also involved in the production of blood cells and the storage of calcium. The teeth are also part of the skeletal system, but they aren&#8217;t regarded as bones.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"bordeaux-static-slot-20\" class=\"bordeaux-slot\" data-feat-ref=\"bordeaux-feat-id-178\"><strong>The Respiratory system<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The\u00a0respiratory system lets us to take in important oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide in a process which is called breathing.

The whole system consists of two kidneys, two ureters, the bladder, two sphincter muscles and the urethra. Urine produced by the kidneys moves down the ureters to the bladder, and goes out the body through the urethra.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"bordeaux-static-slot-23\" class=\"bordeaux-slot\" data-feat-ref=\"bordeaux-feat-id-181\"><strong>The Skin or Integumentary system<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The skin, or\u00a0integumentary system, is the body&#8217;s largest organ.

That&#8217;s not to say that they didn\u2019t once play a role in human survival, according to the Department of Anatomy at Midwestern University.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Over the journey of human evolution, some organs and anatomical structures have lost their function, for example, the coccyx or tailbone. It was Charles Darwin that first proposed that humans came down from primates with tails, noting the tiny set of vertebrae we all share adjacent to the pelvis &#8211; called the coccyx &#8211; is what left over of our ancestral tail, according to the New York Times.<\/p>\n<p>Another well noted example of a apparently functionless organ is the appendix. The appendix is a narrow pouch attached to the lower abdominal cavity of the human body. It\u2019s mostly considered to be useless in the function of the human body, however, in 2017 research conducted by Midwestern University suggested that the appendix may serve as a reservoir for several types of beneficial gut bacteria.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3MWTnuS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Grab Latest Study Materials!
