Exercise 2 Organ System Overview: BSN-1C

This document provides an overview of the major organ systems of the body. It begins with a matching exercise that assigns descriptions to the appropriate organ systems. It then provides exercises to identify which organ systems particular organs belong to. The third exercise identifies specific organs and assigns them to the proper body cavity (thoracic, abdominal, or pelvic). The next parts have students identify organs within abdominal regions and define the levels of organization of the living body. It concludes with drawings of organs with leader lines where students name the organs and organ systems.

EXERCISE 2

Organ System Overview

Name Jasmin R. Rellores Course/Block BSN-1C Date September 2, 2020

1. Using the key choices, indicate the body systems that match the following descriptions. (Some choices may
be used more than once.) Then, circle the organ systems (in the key) that are present in all subdivisions of the
ventral body cavity (thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic cavities).
Key: cardiovascular integumentary nervous skeletal
digestive lymphatic reproductive urinary
endocrine muscular respiratory

urinary 1. rids the body of nitrogen-containing wastes


endocrine 2. is affected by removal of the adrenal gland
skeletal 3. protects and supports body organs; provides a framework for muscular action
cardiovascular 4. includes arteries and veins
nervous 5. controls the body by means of chemicals called hormones
integumentary 6. external body covering
lymphatic 7. houses cells involved in the body’s immune response
digestive 8. breaks down ingested food into its absorbable units
repiratory 9. loads oxygen into the blood
cardiovascular 10. uses blood as a transport vehicle
muscular 11. generates body heat and provides for movement of the body as a whole
urinary 12. regulates water and acid-base balance of the blood
reproductive and endocrine 13. necessary for childbearing
integumentary 14. is damaged when you fall and scrape your knee

2. Using the above key, choose the organ system to which each of the following sets of organs or body
structures belongs:
lymphatic 1. lymph nodes, spleen, lymphatic respiratory 5. trachea, bronchi, alveoli
vessels reproductive 6. uterus, ovaries, vagina
skeletal 2. bones, cartilages, ligaments cardiovascular 7. arteries, veins, heart
endocrine 3. thyroid, thymus, pituitary digestive 8. esophagus, large intestine,
rectum
integumentary 4. skin, nails, hair

3. Using the key below, place the following organs in their proper body cavity:
Key: abdominopelvic cranial spinal thoracic
abdominopelvic 1. stomach abdominopelvic 6. urinary bladder
thoracic 2. esophagus thoracic 7. heart
abdominopelvic 3. large intestine thoracic 8. trachea
abdominopelvic 4. liver cranial 9. brain
spinal 5. spinal cord abdominopelvic 10. rectum

4. Using the organs listed in item 3 above, record, by number, which would be found in the following abdominal
regions:
569 1. hypogastric region 12578 4. epigastric region
3 2. right lumbar region 3 5. left iliac region
35 3. umbilical region 1 6.left hypochondriac region

5. The five levels of organization of a living body, beginning with the cell, are as follows: cell, tissue ,
organ , organ system , and organism.
6. Define organ:
Organs are composed of different types of tissues

7. Using the terms provided, correctly identify all of the body organs provided with leader lines in the drawings
below. Then name the organ systems by entering the name of each on the answer blank below each drawing.
Key: blood vessels heart nerves spinal cord urethra
brain kidney sensory organ ureter urinary bladder

1. nervous system 2. cardiovascular 3. urinary system
