Organs of the circulatory system are the heart, blood, and blood vessels (arteries and veins). The circulatory system interacts with other systems, such as the lungs (respiratory system), liver (digestive system), and kidneys (digestive system).
Skin, hair, nails, sweat and oil glands. Function: Serves as a barrier against infection and injury; helps to regulate body temperature; provides protection against ultraviolet radiation from the sun.
First line of defence is your skin. Skin forms a waterproof barrier that prevents pathogens from entering the body. Your body cavities, such as the nose and mouth, are lined with mucous membranes. Mucous membranes produce sticky mucus which can trap bacteria and other pathogens.hese form what are known as the innate system. The second part of your immune system, known as immunity, develops as you grow. Your immunity gives you protection against specific pathogens. Not only can this system recognise particular pathogens, it also has a memory of this.
