Human Body

There are 11 organ systems that work interdependently in the human body: the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, urinary and reproductive systems. Microscopic anatomy is the study of cells and tissues too small to be seen with the naked eye using techniques like sectioning and staining, then examining them under a microscope. This can provide information about tissue architecture, cell structure and relationships, and how diseases like cancer affect normal human tissue at a microscopic level.

Human body systems

There are 11 organ systems in the human body: http://www.innerbody.com/


 The integumentary system, meaning skin, hair, nails, and so on
 Skeletal system
 Muscular system
 Lymphatic system
 Respiratory system
 Digestive system
 Nervous system
 Endocrine system, which regulates hormone production
 Cardiovascular system
 Urinary system
 Reproductive systems
Although these systems have different names, they all work interdependently, meaning they
work together and depend on each other.
Microscopic anatomy
Microscopic anatomy, also known as histology, is the study of cells and tissues of animals,
humans and plants that are too small to been seen with the naked eye.
By looking at tissue under the microscope, we can learn about the architecture of the cells, how
they are put together, and how they relate to each other.
For example, if a person has cancer, examining the tissue under the microscope will reveal how
the cancer cells are acting and how they affect normal human tissue.
This commonly involves studying tissues and cells using histological techniques such as
sectioning and staining, and then looking at them under an electron or light microscope.
Sectioning involves cutting tissue into very thin slices so they can be examined. Histological
stains are added to biological structures, such as tissues, to add colors or to enhance colors so
they can be more easily distinguished when they are examined, especially if different structures
are next to each other.
