333 Human Anatomy

 A: OK class, so today we are going to continue with our anatomy class, today we will review everything we have learned. Can anyone     
 tell me what the first major organ is?                                                                                                 
 B: The brain!                                                                                                                          
 A: That’s right the brain! /breɪn/ It serves as a control center for the body, handling the processes of the central nervous system    
 as well as cognition. Then what major organ is in our chest?                                                                           
 B: The heart!                                                                                                                          
 A: Very good! It pumps blood throughout the body, using the circulatory system such as blood vessels and veins. Now let’s not forget   
 that our lungs  provide oxygen to our heart and body to keep us  alive! Now what about the organs that help us  digest food?           
 B: The stomach and intestines!                                                                                                         
 A: Very good! Let’s not forget that the stomach is the one that breaks down our food and our intestines process that food and then     
 expel the waste. Are we forgetting anything?

 A: Oh yes, you are right. Very important organs indeed.
