Organ systems like the circulatory, digestive, endocrine, immune, integumentary, and lymphatic systems perform specific functions through a collection of organs and tissues working together. Each system plays a crucial role in the body's overall health and functioning by transporting substances, breaking down nutrients, regulating hormones, protecting against pathogens, and maintaining bodily functions.
