The human body is the best creature in the world. However, it has been a mystery for a long time because scientists have discovered new cells with time. Our body is composed of different cells, tissues, and organs, each performing a different function. There are many systems in the human body, such as the nervous, circulatory, and respiratory systems. Each cell, organs, and tissue are in specific numbers. We move with the help of bones. Some bones are small and some are large. The bones are connected through joints and muscles keep them in place. We should take care of our body and learn about it.
