The human body has 11 organ systems: Integumentary, Muscular, Skeletal, Nervous, Circulatory, Lymphatic, Respiratory, Endocrine, Urinary/excretory, Reproductive and Digestive. We will study the components of each of these systems, how each of these systems work, what keeps each system healthy and what can cause it to break down. There is a major experiment for each system. This is not just a lecture class but very much hands on. Practical application is reinforced which makes this a class for any high school student not only interested in the subject but a healthy life as well.
