Key Stage 3

Meaning

An organ system is a group of organs which work together to complete a vital function for the organism.

About Organ Systems

Organ systems work together to keep an organism alive.
Organ systems are specialised for certain roles.

Organ Systems you should know:

Examples

Organ systems in humans.
DigestiveSystem.png
CirculatorySystemUnlabelled.png
BreathingSystem.png
The Digestive System absorbs nutrients from food. The Circulatory System transports nutrients, oxygen and waste around the body. The Breathing System absorbs Oxygen and removes Carbon Dioxide from the blood.
NervousSystem.png
HumanMuscles.png
HumanSkeleton.png
The Nervous System controls the body and sends signals to and from the brain. The Muscular System allows the body to move. The Skeletal System supports and protects the body and produces blood cells.
Organ systems in Flowering Plants.
