§ 6. THE HUMAN BODY AND THE ORGANISM AS A WHOLE

There are three chief parts of the human body, the head, the trunk and limbs or extremities. The skeleton of the body is composed of223 bones of various sizes and shapes, which give firm but flexible support to the soft tissues, muscles and organs. The bone framework of the heard, enclosing the brain and supporting the face is the skull. The skeleton of the trunk mainly consists of the spinal column made of a series of bony rings. The trunk is divided into two large cavities by the diaphragm. The chest is the upper of these cavities, the belly or abdomen - the lower.

The upper cavity contains heart and lungs. In the lower cavity there is stomach, liver, gull-bladder, kidneys, bladder and the intestines. The lungs belong to the respiratory system. Kidneys and bladder are parts of the urinary system. The heart, the arteries, veins constitute the cardiovascular system.

The upper extremity is divided into the shoulder, the upper arm, the forearm and the hand. Each hand has four fingers and one thumb.

The parts of the lower extremity are the thigh (hip), the lower leg and the foot.

As for the organism as a whole, it is a single system. In a complex organism, cells and intercellular substance form tissues, tissues make up organs and systems of organs unite in systems. All the cell, tissues organs and systems of organs are closely interconnected and affect each other.

There are several main systems of the body: the skeletal, the muscular, the nervous, the digestive, the respiratory, the urinary, the endocrine and the reproductive systems.

The vital activities of the cells, tissues, organs and the whole organism are based on metabolism.

The regulations between the various systems of organs can be demonstrated by the coordinated changes in their activities. Intensification of the activity of one organs or system of organs is accompanied by changes in the other system. For example, physical work causes metabolism to increase sharply in the muscles. This leads to a coordinated change in the activity of the cardiovascular, respiratory, excretory and other systems.
