The Human Body
The human body is the most complex machine that has ever been made. This complex machine contains four main parts that make that human body work: the skeleton, the nervous system, the organs, and the muscles. All together they make the human body a machine with unlimited possibilities. First I will explain how the skeleton plays its importance role in the human body. Then I will follow with the nervous system, including the brain, organs, and muscles. From inside out the human body will come alive in your very eyes.
First starters the skeleton, which protects our brain, heart and enables the body movement. When humans are first born their skeleton is soft and undeveloped, but as mouths go by they take form and harden. After being born the human bones get stronger and harder til adulthood. As the body ages form childhood to adult the bones take much damage. The cranium, which protects the brain, may take many bumps and hits, but this is only normal. If the cranium was cracked, it can heal over time, and so the brain can still remain healthy and protected. For the ribs, the same apply to them. They protect the heart, the lungs, and organs of the body. This is the role for the skeleton in the human body.
The next working function in the human body would be the nervous system. All the nerves and nerve cells outside your central nervous system make up your peripheral nervous system. Its task is to relay information from your brain and spinal cord to the rest of your body and from your body to the spinal cord and brain. The peripheral nervous system consists of 12 pairs of cranial nerves and also contains 31 pairs of spinal nerves which branch off from your spinal cord to the rest of the body. Because of this, the human body is allow to feel cold, heat, and pain from the lightest of touch to full contact. Now you tell me how many machines can feel pain. "Ouch".
Now we have come to the engine in the human body, the organs. Like an engine the organs take in fuel such as air and food to keep the human body running. The parts that does this includes is the lungs, heart, liver, spleen, stomach, kidneys, large intestine, small intestine, and bladder. All these parts work on their own specific tasks in the body. The lungs take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide. The heart pumps the blood in the body. The liver cleans the blood. The stomach and large and small intestine takes in food and breaks it down. The kidneys clean the urine, and the spleen cleans the blood destroying old red blood cells and fights infection. You tell me any machine in the world that does this naturaly. "Sure you could program a computer to do the same thing, but thats the thing, you program the computer the computer did not program itself."Since when we have to tell our stomachs to digest food when you eat. Or tell your heart to pump more blood to your body when your running. Our organ system does this on its own without us even knowing it. Our mind may tell what our body to do, but our body has a mind of its own.
Finally we get to what make’s the human body move and looks good, the muscles. If you ever think the muscles push and pull well your wrong about one thing and right about the other. Muscles pull and relax; there is no pushing that the muscles do in the human body. Skeletal muscles only pull in one direction. For this reason they always come in pairs. When one muscle in a pair contracts, to bend a joint for example, its counterpart then contracts and pulls in the opposite direction to straighten the joint out again. Without this arrangement of your muscles you wouldn't be able to straighten your legs when you walk or bend your fingers to grip something.
So this concludes my Analysis of the Human Body. I have broken down this complex machine to four main parts of its function in the human body. Through the skeleton, nerves system, organs and muscles the human body is by far the most advanced living machine ever to be created. So the next time your car breaks down or your computer crash, just remember your body is the by far best machine by far created, and long as you keep it healthy it’ll keep you running and lifetime long.
