What dose the urinary system do? It produces, stores and eliminates urine, eliminates wastes and regulates volume and chemical composition of blood; maintains the bodies mineral balance.
What does the muscular system do? It participates in brining about movement, maintains posture and produces heat.

What is part of the nervous system? The brain, spinal cord, nerves, and sense organs such as the eyes and ears.
What does the reproductive system do? It allows for reproduction.
Anatomy is.... The components
Physiology is... The function
what is the smallest level of biological organization. molecule
What are the six levels of biological organization? Molecule, cellular, tissue, organ, organ system, and organism
What is homeostasis? The bodies tendency to keep all functions "within normal limits"
What happens if normal functions get outside of their normal limits? The body uses feedback loops to fix the problem.
The Negative feedback loop does... If a body function is outside of normal limits, the body takes measures to return to the normal limits. This is 99% of all feedback loops.
The positive feedback loop does... If the body senses tat a certain function above normal limits, the body makes more of it - pushing it higher. Above the normal limits.
