3 CELL ORGANISATION IN
THE HUMAN BODY
 CELL ORGANISATION
1. A multicellular organisms has many different types of
cells.
2. The different types of cells have different shapes and
structures and carry out different functions. We say
that the cells are specialized.
3. A group of cells with the same structure and function
form a tissue.
4. A group of different types of tissues working together
to perform a certain function from an organ.
5. A group of organs working together to perform a
certain function form a system.
6. The different systems will form a complete organisms.
TYPES OF HUMAN CELLS,
TISSUES AND ORGANS
1. Allow movement of the
body.
2. Muscle is made up of
bundles of muscle cells
that contract (gets
shorter) and relax (goes
back to its original
position) to produce
movement.
1. Covers internal and external surfaces of the body.
2. Barrier against disease.
3. Protects tissues and organs.
1. Send electrical messages throughout the body.
2. Nerve cells have many fine thread-like structures on
their surface. These are used to make connections
with other nerve cells to pass electrical message.
1. Support.
1. Carries oxygen to all the cells in the body.
2. These cells are shaped like discs and do not have
nucleus.
1. Destroys bacteria and viruses.
2. White bloods cells can change shape. They can move
and surround, then destroy the bacteria and viruses.
1. Produce offspring.
2. It consists of the sperm (from the male) and ovum
(from the female).
 SYSTEM IN THE HUMAN BODY
1. Two or more different tissues group together to
carry out a function. These groups are known
as organs.
2. The heart, the lung, the brain and the stomach
are examples of organs.
3. A system consists of a group of organs.
4. These organs work together to carry out the
same function.
CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
1. Carries oxygen and food
to the cells of the body.
2. Carries away waste
products from the cells
of the body.
DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
1. Breaks down food into
smaller components that
are absorbed and used
by cells.
 EXCRETORY SYSTEM

1. Removes waste products from the body.

2. Lungs remove carbon dioxide and water vapour.
3. Skin and kidneys remove water, urea and mineral
salts.
 MUSCULAR SYSTEM

1. For movement.
 NERVOUS SYSTEM

1. Coordination of all the activities in the body.

2. Response to stimuli.
 REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM

1. For reproduction.
2. The reproductive systems produces reproductive cells
(sperm and ovum) and forms new individual.
 RESPIRATORY SYSTEM

1. To supply oxygen to the body.

2. To remove carbon dioxide excreted by all cells.
SKELETAL SYSTEM
1. To provide
support for the
body.
2. To maintain the
shape of the
body.
3. For movement.
4. To protect
internal organs.
