The human body has many parts, doesn’t it?

Can you name them from the smallest parts through the largest ones?

WHAT IS THE BODY MADE OF?

Like all things (living or not living) the human body consists of atoms of chemical elements. The most common chemical elements in the body are carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen. The body also contains smaller amounts of many other elements including calcium, iron, phosphorus, potassium, and sodium.

Atoms of chemical elements combine and form microscope structures called molecules. The most common molecule in the human body is water. Water makes about 65% of the body. Most of the chemical reactions that occur in the body require water. Except for water, all the chief molecules in the body contain carbon. The most important of these molecules are large, complicated structures called macromolecules. There are four main kinds of macromolecules: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids.

The cell is the basic unit of all living things. The cell of the human body consists chiefly of water, proteins, and nucleic acids. The molecules that make up the cell are not alive, but the cells themselves are living things. Each of the body’s cells is able to take in food, get rid of wastes, and grow. Most of the cells can also reproduce. A thin covering consisting of lipid molecules encloses each cell. This lipid envelope permits only certain substances to enter or leave the cell. The body has many types of cells, such as blood cells, muscle cells, and nerve cells.

Cells of the same type form tissues. The body has four chief kinds of tissues. Connective tissue helps support and join together various parts of body. Most connective tissue is strong and elastic. Epithelial tissue covers the body surface and so forms the skin. It also lines such body openings as the mouth and the throat. Epithelial tissue prevents harmful substances from entering the body. Muscle tissue makes it possible for the body to move. It consists of threadlike fibers that can contract (shorten). Nervous tissue carries signals. It permits various parts of body to communicate with one another.

An organ consists of two or more kinds of tissues joined into one structure that has a certain task. Groups of organs form organ system. Each organ system carries out a major activity in the body.
