to nerve impuses) and supporting cells (insulate, nourish, and

protect); fast-acting communication and control system

scattered through out body; secrete hormones to

maintain homeostasis

infection

Respiratory system – larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs; supplies oxygen,

removes carbon dioxide

eliminates wastes regulates water, electrolyte, and acid

base homeostasis
