Many anatomy lessons focus on the musculoskeletal system, these are the bones and muscles – with more emphasis on the bones.
Some go further to include the nervous system, the brain and nerves.
A good starting point when thinking of anatomy is considering the organs in the body.
There are five sense organs:
1. Eyes
2. Nose
3. Tongue
4. Skin
5. Ears
These are all part of our anatomy. Then thinking more about organs and the systems they are a part of, there is the digestive system, the reproductive system, endocrine system, respiratory system, urinary, circulatory, pancreatobiliary (part of the digestive).
Can you name an organ in each system mentioned above?
