BODIES...The Exhibition - Cleveland, OH

So, I'm going to this on this coming Saturday. I'll make sure to get some pics and post them up...this looks sooooo cool. I'm actually pretty pumped to see this. I guess it's drawn up some frowns from some people.

Here's a few pics of what I'll see live....


SKELETAL SYSTEM

Like the frame of a house, the skeleton forms the internal structure of the body. It resists the pull of gravity and protects vital organs, while over 100 joints provide it with remarkable mobility. All bones store important mineral salts; in addition, red bone marrow in the flat and long bones creates 2.5 million new red blood cells each second.


MUSCULAR SYSTEM

The muscular system is the engine that drives the body. By connecting across the joints of the skeleton, muscles create levers that, when they contract, move the bones. Other types of muscles move food through the digestive tract, blood through the blood vessels and keep the heart beating every second of your life. Like any good engine, the muscular system also produces heat, which helps maintain body temperature.


CIRCULATORY SYSTEM

Crisscrossing the body in a fine weave, the blood vessels of the circulatory system hold the body together. They transport everything the cell needs to maintain life. The circulatory system carries oxygen and nutrients throughout the body, as well as powerful guardian cells that seek out and destroy any virus or bacteria.
