What does the respiratory system do
Keeps blood constantly supplied with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide. The gaseous exchanges occur through the walls of the air sacs of the lungs.
115
What does the digestive system do
Breaks down food into absorbable units that enter the blood for distribution to body cells. Indigestible foodstuffs are eliminated as feces
116
What does the urinary system do
Eliminates nitrogenous wastes from the body. Regulates water, electrolyte and acid base balance of the blood
117
What do the reproductive organs do
Overall function is production of offspring. Testes produce sperm and make sex hormone, and make ducts and glands aid in delivery of sperm to te female structures serve as sites for fertilization and development of the fetus. Mammary glands of female breasts produce milk to nourish the newborn
118
