Blood
Blood is a liquid connective tissue that performs many functions in the body.
Blood Circulation
The heart consists of two pumps. The right side of the heart pumps blood to the lungs. The left side of the heart receives oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumps it throughout the rest of the body.
Blood Vessels
Arteries, veins, and capillaries carry blood to all parts of the body.
Digestive System
The digestive system is a group of organs that convert food into absorbable chemicals that are then used to provide energy for growth and repair.

Female Reproductive System
The female reproductive system produces female gametes (eggs), provides a place for eggs to be fertilized by sperm, houses a developing fetus, and gives birth to offspring.
Heart
Located in the thoracic cavity, the heart is a four-chambered muscular organ that provides the primary force moving blood through the circulatory system.
Human Egg
Eggs are cells that differ from body cells, known as somatic cells, by the fact that they must eventually become haploid (having only one set of chromosomes) in preparation for fusion with the haploid sperm nucleus.
Lungs
The lungs are a pair of organs located inside the rib cage. The lungs are the location where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide gases occurs.
Male Reproductive System
The main tasks of the male reproductive system are to produce and transport sperm cells.
Mouth
The mouth is the part of the digestive system where digestion begins. The major components of the mouth shown here are the teeth, the gums, the tongue, and the palate.
Nephron
The urine-forming structures in the kidneys are called nephrons.
Ovarian Cycle
During the ovarian cycle, the immature egg, or oocyte, matures, erupts from the ovary, travels to the uterus in a monthly sequence.
Red Blood Cell
A red blood cell (RBC), or erythrocyte, is the most common blood cell type.
Respiratory System: Alveoli
An alveolus is a tiny air sac located within the lungs. The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place within the millions of alveoli in the lungs.
Sperm
Human sperm cells (and the sperm cells of other animals) are male haploid gametes. This means that each sperm carries half of the genetic information that humans need.
Tooth
Human teeth vary somewhat in shape and size as they are intended to serve different roles.
Urinary System
The urinary system is the collection of organs and structures that function in the removal of waste material from the body. It also regulates blood volume and levels of electrolytes.
Uterus
The uterus, or womb, is a muscular organ in which a fetus develops during pregnancy. The human uterus is a single uterus geared to gestating a single fetus.
