AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
27
It recieves stimuli and transmit action potential.
NEURONS
28
It consists cell body, dendrites and an axon.

29
It support cells of the nervous system; includes astrocytes, microglia, ependymal cells, oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells.
NEUROGLIA
30
Makes transmission of electrical signals faster
MYELIN SHEATHS
31
It exchanges oxygen and carbon dioxide between the air and blood, regulates blood pH, produces sounds, moves all over the sensory receptors that detect smell, and protect against some microorganisms.
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
32
It transport oxygen and nutrients to all the cells at the body and removes waste products from tge tissues.
BLOOD
33
It serves as a regulatory function through its transport hormones.
BLOOD
34
It carries blood and nutrients to the different parts of the body and carbon dioxide and waste away from these parts
RED BLOOD CELLS / ERYTHROCYTES
35
It protects the body from diseases through phagocytosis.
WHITE BLOOD CELLS / LEUKOCYTES
36
It forms clot to prevent further bleeding.
PLATELETS / THROMBOCYTES
37
It is the fluid part of the blood, containing dissolved ions and various organic molecules.
PLASMA
38
It pumps blood to the different part of the body.
HEART
39
It contains oxygenated blood to different parts of the body except pulmonary arteries.
ARTERIES
40
It carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs.
PULMONARY ARTERIES
41
It contains deoxygenated blood to different parts of the body except pulmonary veins.
VEINS
42
It carries oxygenated blood away from the lungs.
PULMONARY VEINS
43
It provide for the exchange of molecules between the blood and the surrounding tissues.
CAPILLARIES
44
It takes in food, breaks down the food, absorbs the digested molecules and thus, provides nutrients to the body.
DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
45
``` It involves in mastication of food using: A) Lips and Cheeks B) Tongue C) Teeth D) Hard and Soft Palates E) Salivary Glands ```
ORAL CAVITY
46
It consists of tge nasopharynx, oripharynx and laryngopharynx.
PHARYNX
47
It connects the pharynx to the stomach. The upper and lower esophageal sphincters regulate movement.
ESOPHAGUS
48
Gastric glands produce mucus, hydrochloric acid, pepsis, gastrin, and intrinsic factor which breaks down food for easier absorption of nutrients.
STOMACH
49
It produces serous and mucous secretions.

SALIVARY GLANDS
51
It is divided into the duodenum, jejunum and ileum.
SMALL INTESTINE
52
It produces bile, which contains bile salts the emulsify fats.
LIVER
53
It produces bicarbonate ions and digestive enzymes
PANCREAS
54
The most absorption occurs here.
LARGE INTESTINE
55
Excrete waste products and control blood volume by regulating the volume of urine produced.
