What 2 main body systems are affected by dementia?

Answer 1

You know that your body is made of cells. When groups of cells do the

same kind of work, they are called tissues. The word tissue comes from a

Latin word meaning to "weave." Cells that make up tissues are sometimes

"woven" together.

2

You have four main types of tissues: epithelial, nervous, muscle, and

connective tissue. Epithelial tissue covers the outside of the body. It also

lines organs and cavities. Nervous tissue sends electrical signals. Muscle

tissue helps you move. Connective tissue joins bones and cushions organs.

3

When groups of tissues work together, they are called organs. Some

examples of organs are the heart, lungs, skin, and stomach. When organs work together,

they are called systems. For example, your heart, lungs, blood, and blood vessels work

together. They make up the circulatory system.

There are eleven systems in the human body: muscular system, respiratory system,

digestive system, integumentary system (skin), skeletal system, circulatory (or

cardiovascular) system, excretory (or urinary) system, reproductive system, nervous

system, lymphatic system, and endocrine system. Each system has a special job.

All of your body systems have to work together to keep you healthy. Your bones and

muscles work together to support and move your body. Your respiratory system takes in

oxygen from the air. It also gets rid of carbon dioxide.
