Human beings eat foodstuff and respire, but why? This paper intends to address the important systems in a human body that are significant to maintain life and enable human beings to function in a better way. In assessing this, the paper will present the structure and functions of different systems and working of cells and tissues involved in it. Also, how they form organs and body processes that have to work together to make certain that the human body can provide the settings essential for thought-process, activity, development and improvement. The paper is divided into four tasks. First task will outline the most important anatomical characteristics of the human body. Second task will demonstrate the relation involving body performance and related detailed structure and bodily processes. Third task will address the subject matter of how routine information collected in healthcare and social care informs the planning of care for people and fourth task will relate routine changes in body structure and performance to care attained by people.

LO 1.1& 1.2

In a human body, there are many systems that works together to help body in functioning normally and develops. These systems are interrelated with each other. When something goes wrong with one system, it will have an effect on other systems. Best approach to defend body from diseases and viruses is to live a healthy life by regularly doing exercise and consuming food that are rich of nourishment. Individual body is a multifaceted scheme several sets of schemes function together to keep the body fit and strong. In a day, we can approximate that our heart beats 103,689 times, our blood travels 168,000,000 miles and digestive scheme processes 7.8 pounds of wastage materials. These systems help human body to perform numerous functions and carry out tasks on a daily basis. And with the little calamity could ground an anomaly in the scheme, incredibly, normally human bodies function without a flaw. Human body comprises of many systems (Merrill, 2008). These systems take account of the following:

Nervous Scheme: This system has absolute power over all other schemes. Other schemes of the human body acts in response towards the indications given by the brain, which are sent all the way in the course of the spinal cord. The nervous scheme takes account of the brain, spinal thread and nerve networks.

Skeletal and Muscular Schemes: This scheme offers shield for the nervous scheme; the head is a shielding trap that covers the brain. Bone frames in the spinal column look after the spinal thread. The skeletal scheme functions directly with the muscular scheme to give structure, hold and to facilitate humans to be in motion. This scheme also gives shield for the heart, lung organs and kidneys.

Digestive Scheme: This scheme functions directly with all other schemes to give foodstuff and power to all body organs. It gives nourishments to schemes to support them, develop and work generally. This arrangement comprises of the abdomen and large ...
