To determine: The organ system that coordinates the body functions.
Introduction: Different levels of organizations can be seen inside the body of living organisms. These levels of an organization are cellular level, tissue level, organ level, and the organ system level. The ten primary organ systems of the body are the respiratory system, cardiovascular system,
To determine: The organ system that provides protection to the body from pathogens and other invaders.
Introduction: The body of living organisms is made up of different levels of the organization. These levels of an organization can be classified or named as cellular level, tissue level, organ level, and the organ system level.
To determine: The organ system that is responsible for exchanging substances with the outside environment and also determine the types of exchanged substances or materials.
Introduction: Human body is made up of cellular, tissue, organ, and organ system levels of organization. Different organ systems make up the body of an individual.

She recently returned from a trip to sub-Saharan Africa, where she did not take malaria prophylaxis. On examination, she is febrile (39.8°C/103.6°F) and hypotensive. Laboratory studies reveal hemoglobin of 8.0 g/dL, platelet count of 50,000/μL, and evidence of hemoglobinuria. A peripheral blood smear shows ring forms and banana-shaped gametocytes.
