THE HUMAN BODY
It is something that has been a source of fascination for mankind, since he couldstand on two feet, it has amazed us with its intricacy, and baffed us with its complex abilities.
The human body is a wonder to behold, it is the most amazing thing you will ever own, yet many of us tend to ignore its fantastic abilities.
The human body is a machine, and like all machines it needs energy which it must absorb and burn in order to function.
Most of this energy comes from twodefinite sources… the food we eat and the air we breathe, without these two basic intakes, our bodies could not survive for very long.
On the outside our body seems like one single object, but on the inside there are many different types of activity taking place. Each group is called a system, and there are many systems that are active in all healthy humans. The most important ones beingcardiovascular(heart),circulatory(blood flow), digestive(food),endrocrine(hormones),immune(disease defence),lymphatic(lymph fluid circulation), muscular(muscles), nervous(nerves), respiratory(breathing),skeletal(bones),urinary(kidneys & bladder) and reproductive(sexual)
You could say that the human body is made up of many different parts or components.
Your bones, which make up your skeleton. Your muscles,wich help you to move about.
Your internal organs, inside you, which perform various functions,and of course, your skin, which helps to keep it all nicely wrapped together.
All these parts have their own names, although many are not easy to remember, and some are very difficult to spell and pronounce.
The general terms used for studying the workings of the body are either, anatomy or humanbiology, although “ anatomy” is more specific and generally concerns the structure and positions of all the body parts.
I’m sure that some of us can remember our biology teacher cutting open a frog and showing us its insides…
What would your say, are the most important parts of your body?
I guess most of us would say..the heart
Probably followed by… the brain
These particular organs keep usalive and allow us to carry out our everyday tasks.
They are what we call..vital organs.. other vital organs includc.. the liver.. the pancreas.. the lungs.. and the kidneys..
And I said earlier, the human body is a machine, and just like any piece of machinery, it needs to be taken care of.
Eating the right food is very important, and taking regular daily exercise, will keep you fit and yourbody parts in good shape.
Of course, just like any piece of machinery, things can go wrong and parts do wear out.
Fortunately for us body has the ability to repair and defend itself.
Our immune system protects us from disease and our tiny skin cells have the ability to regenerate or renew themselves.
Thaks to modern medicine we can now overcome many of the problems that come with everyday wearand tear.
We can take pills, or someone can open up our body and repair the damaged part or even replace it with a good one.
Many illnesses and diseases can be controlled and cured now, although sadly, there are a few which still have no definite treatment or remedy.
Despite its amazing qualities the human body is not infallible or 100% perfect.
As we get older, the parts wear and the body´sability to repair itself begin to fail.
Our tiny cells stop regenerating and the appearance of old age becomes very clear and impossible to hide.
Despite all our wonderful medical expertise, there is nothing we can do to stop this inevitable event from happening.
When we feel unwell or sick, the first person we usually go to.. is the doctor.
We will explain the problem that we have.
