The integumentary system (skin and its glands) is the primary protection the body has against pathogens and physical injury and essentially keeps things from falling out. Additionally, certain parts of the skeletal system provide vital protection for certain organs of the body:

  • the cranial bones protect the brain
  • the ribcage protect the heart and lungs
  • the vertebral column protects the spinal cord
The immune system system is also a major system that protects the organs from pathogens.The excretory systemensures that waste products and other toxic substances in the body are removed before they can cause harm to the organs of the body.
