The body systems in this module
The module opens by noting that humans are complex living things made of different organ systems. Each system does a special job and coordinates with the others so we can grow, breathe, move, and do activities like dancing, jumping, and texting.
| Body system | Main parts | Main job |
|---|---|---|
| Musculo-skeletal | Bones, muscles, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, joints | Supports the body and produces movement |
| Integumentary | Skin, hair | Covers and protects the body; acts as a receptor for touch |
| Digestive | Mouth, stomach, liver, intestines | Breaks food down into substances the body can absorb |
| Respiratory | Nostrils, pharynx, trachea, bronchi, lungs | Exchanges oxygen and carbon dioxide |
| Circulatory | Heart, blood vessels, blood | Carries nutrients to cells and carries away their wastes |
| Nervous | Brain, spinal cord, nerve cells | Controls and coordinates body processes |
Key ideas for each system
- Muscles: There are three types. Cardiac muscles work the heart. Smooth muscles control involuntary movement of the digestive tract, blood vessels, and bladder. Skeletal muscles are voluntary muscles that move the bones.
- Bones: The skeletal system protects internal organs, supports the body, and produces blood cells.
- Skin: It is made of tough skin cells and a tough protein called keratin that protect what lies underneath from minor cuts. It also protects against microorganisms and temperature.
- Digestion: It starts in the mouth with cutting, tearing, and grinding (mechanical digestion). Enzymes break food into smaller molecules (chemical digestion). Final digestion and absorption of nutrients happen in the small intestine.
- Breathing: Air passes from the nostrils to the pharynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs, where gases are exchanged in the bloodstream.
- Circulation: The heart pumps blood to all body parts through the blood vessels. Blood carries oxygen from the lungs to the cells and takes wastes away.
- Nervous system: It has two divisions. The central nervous system (CNS) is the brain and spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is mainly the nerves that connect the CNS to the rest of the body. The spinal cord also handles reflex actions, quick movements that protect the body from harm.
How the nervous system works with the other systems
This is the center of the module. Its Table 1 gives examples like these:
- Skeletal: The skull protects the brain, and the spinal column protects the spinal cord. The brain controls the position of the bones. Bones provide calcium the nervous system needs.
- Muscular: The brain controls voluntary movement. Muscles send information back to the brain. The nervous system regulates how fast food moves through the digestive tract.
- Integumentary: Receptor cells in the skin send messages to the brain. The brain controls the sweat glands.
- Digestive: The digestive system provides food for the brain. The brain controls eating behavior, stomach contraction, and the muscles for eating and elimination.
- Respiratory: The respiratory system supplies oxygen. The brain monitors breathing and controls the respiratory rate.
- Circulatory: The brain controls blood and heartbeat activities, including heart rate and blood pressure.
Other systems also work in pairs. The respiratory system gives oxygen to the circulatory system, which carries blood with nutrients. The digestive system breaks food into a simpler form, and the circulatory system distributes the nutrients to body parts.
How to use this module
The module follows the usual parts: What I Need to Know, What I Know (pretest), What’s In, What’s New, What Is It, What’s More, What I Have Learned, What I Can Do, Assessment, Additional Activities, and Answer Key.
- Answer What I Know first: ten multiple-choice and matching items. If you get all of them right, the module says you may decide to skip it.
- Review earlier lessons in What’s In, covering bones, muscles, the liver, the brain, the lungs, and the heart.
- Complete the body systems table in What’s New and read What Is It.
- Use Table 1 to fill in the blanks in What’s More and What I Have Learned.
- In What I Can Do, mark which habits, such as eating a balanced diet or playing video games until midnight, help the organ systems work well.
- Take the ten-item Assessment, then try the Additional Activities: name the body systems involved in running, eating breakfast, or touching a hot glass of milk.
Learners: Write your answers in your Science journal or on a separate sheet, not on the module. Check your work honestly with the answer key.
Parents and facilitators: Make sure the pretest is done first and each task is finished before the next. Return the module to the teacher when it is complete.
Teachers: Table 1 and the fill-in activities work well as a quick review of how the nervous system interacts with each body system.

Different major organs of the body worked together to keep our body alive and produce different movements with specific functions and coordination yielding desired result. The following are the body system and their specific functions:
Musculo-skeletal System
- [illustration: human skeleton with muscles shown on one side of the body]
The musculo-skeletal system provides support to the body and enables the body to produce movement. Bones in the body (skeletal system) muscles (muscular system), the cartilage, tendons, ligaments, joints, and other connective tissue that supports and binds tissues muscular system comprise musculo-skeletal system.
[transcriber’s note: “muscular system” is printed as a separate label inside the paragraph, between “tissues” and “comprise”]
Muscular System – all muscles in the body make up the skeletal system which allow us to move. These consists of the three types of muscles, the cardiac muscles that controls the heart, smooth muscles controls involuntary movement of
the digestive tract, blood vessels, and bladder, and the skeletal muscles are voluntary muscles controlled to move bones.
Skeletal System – all the bones in the body make up the skeletal system, which protects internal organs and supports the body. It also produce millions of blood cells needed by the body.
Integumentary System
- [illustration: close-up of skin layers with hair follicles and blood vessels]
The integumentary system serves as body covering that provides protection to our body against microorganisms, temperature, and acts as receptor for touch.
The skin is composed of tough skin cells and tough protein called keratin that protect tissues, organs, and other stuctures underneath the skin against physical damage from minor cuts,
Digestive System
[illustration: outline of human upper body showing the stomach and intestines]
[transcriber’s note: the fragment “be” is printed over the illustration]
Digestive system works in digesting food into substances that can be absorbed by the body. Digestion begins in the mouth by breaking food by means of cutting, tearing, and grinding known as mechanicadigestion. The breakdown of food into smaller molecules by enzymes found in the digestive system is known as chemical digestion. Final digestion of food takes place in the small intestine and absorption of nutrients happen.
Respiratory System
- [illustration: upper body showing the airways and lungs]
Respiratory system is responsible for the exchange of gases such as carbon-dioxide to oxygen in the bloodstream. Respiratory process starts from the nostrils, pharynx, to the trachea, into the bronchi and to the lungs.
Circulatory System
- [illustration: upper body showing the heart and blood vessels]
Circulatory system is a transport system of the body responsible for the distribution of nutrients to the cells and carries away the wastes product of the cells. The heart is the vital organ in the circulatory system that pumps blood to all body parts. The blood vessels are the railway station of the blood enable blood to reach different parts of the body that serve as . Blood is another component of the circulatory system as it circulates to all parts of the body as it transport oxygen from the lungs to the cells and carries the waste materials from the cells.
Nervous System
- [illustration: child with brain, spinal cord, and nerves shown inside the body]
Nervous system is the control unit of the body thus it regulates and coordinates body processes. It has two major divisions: the central nervous system (CNS) composed of brain
and spinal cord and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) consists mainly of nerves that connects the CNS with the rest of the body.
Its major parts are the brain, spinal cord, and neurons or nerve cells.
Brain is the control unit of the body as it interprets messages, make judgments, to have sensations, and to think creatively. The spinal cord is a cordlike material encased in a spinal column that links between the brain and the PNS. It is also responsible for a reflex action or an instantaneous movement that protect the body from harm. The neurons or nerve cells are the working unit of the nervous system as it transmit information to the nerve cells, muscles or gland cells.
