	I'm sure quizzes would be a lot easier if we did have a Spoculatory system!

	Half-remembered Biology lessons come in useful... I got 8 out of 12 :D Missed out endocrine, immune (duh!), lymphatic and respiratory (double duh!).

	forgot the immune system doh!!

	kaiohshin:	May 5th, 2009 at 00:03 GMT	13 points
	I too thought back to Bio I. Fail for forgetting reproductive but remembering integumentary! I must now sacrifice my first born.

	melissa:	May 5th, 2009 at 00:04 GMT	11 points
	nice little quiz, thanks -- I like the quizzes in which a little reflection can help where memory fails (though that has its limits -- no way was reflection going to help me generate "integumentary"!)

	zigra:	May 5th, 2009 at 00:15 GMT	11 points
	I had Nervous and Respiratory, then said to myself N, O, P, which then gave me Urinary :)

	jeter97:	May 5th, 2009 at 00:24 GMT	1 point
	got 8 of 12, missed easy ones like muscular and circulatory

	BioCryo:	May 5th, 2009 at 00:25 GMT	2 points
	I got nine out of ten, what the heck is the Integumenary system?

	marpocky:	May 5th, 2009 at 00:35 GMT	6 points
	@BioCryo: I got integumentary for typing "skin"

	tony:	May 5th, 2009 at 00:36 GMT	6 points
	integument = skin

	i felt smart when I got the integument system, but I just typed in skin. Missed endocrine, which made me a little hormonal

	RobH:	May 5th, 2009 at 00:44 GMT	33 points
	Another nice procrastinatory system....erm, I mean quiz.

	dacoshi:	May 5th, 2009 at 00:55 GMT	8 points
	@Christine Mead The limbic system is part of the nervous system.

	Jordan117:	May 5th, 2009 at 01:05 GMT	5 points
	"Endocrine" was itching my brain in the last ten seconds or so. "Endothermic"? No. "Endoscopic"? No! Crap. And I can't believe I missed respiratory... facepalm

	shel99:	May 5th, 2009 at 01:20 GMT	4 points
	I got them all, but am ashamed of how long it took me to think of 'Respiratory'. And I'm a science teacher...

	jsh:	May 5th, 2009 at 01:23 GMT	-1 points
	@GPB the pulmonary system is part of the circulatory system, I believe.

	DLJessup:	May 5th, 2009 at 01:26 GMT	11 points
	"Pulmonary" should be an alternate answer for "respiratory" and "renal" should be an alternate answer for "urinary".

	DB:	May 5th, 2009 at 01:26 GMT	5 points
	Great quiz! Tried dermatological, and it turned up nothing. I don't remember ever hearing about integumentary stuff in school, but then, biology never was my favorite subject. Got all the rest, though. Why does integumentary sound like it should deal with tendons and ligaments?

	Lindsay:	May 5th, 2009 at 01:44 GMT	6 points
	Can we have gastrointestinal as an alternative to digestive? GI is the official term we use in medicine; I couldn't get past that and think of digestive

	tscheno2:	May 5th, 2009 at 02:24 GMT	2 points
	What about the exocrine system? Definitely not the same as endocrine system.

	Bretzky:	May 5th, 2009 at 02:40 GMT	10 points
	In the immortal words of Gary Busey: If you put that straitjacket on me, I'm going to pull your endocrine system out of your body.

	davidr:	May 5th, 2009 at 02:58 GMT	9 points
	Given that `skin' is enough for the integumentary system, should `hormones' count for the endocrine system? Or should I just be satisfied with my undeserved point for `skin' and get on with my life?

	meli:	May 5th, 2009 at 03:09 GMT	4 points
	I hate to admit that the only one I missed was nervous

	koi:	May 5th, 2009 at 03:47 GMT	6 points
	in europe many unemployed candy sellers live near real dead rats. also the lymphatic system is part of the immune system.

	JSails:	May 5th, 2009 at 04:09 GMT	5 points
	@ koi: i am not sure i understand your point....

	alexy:	May 5th, 2009 at 04:53 GMT	4 points
	9/12; missed immune which is rubbish, couldn't think of the terminology for skin - learnt a new one there. As for endocrine - nothing.

	brianc:	May 5th, 2009 at 05:09 GMT	4 points
	d'oh for immune and reproductive; couldn't think of the name endocrine, kept wanting to call it pituitary (that's related, right?) also thanks for giving me credit for "skin". oh and thanks for urinary when i typed "excretory"

	Asdfaeou:	May 5th, 2009 at 06:22 GMT	4 points
	I missed three easy (nervous, muscular and immune) and one medium (lymphatic) but am happy with 8/12.

	NoVan:	May 5th, 2009 at 07:20 GMT	8 points
	I tried "Sporculatory" expecting a bonus answer saying "We told you so."

	poli:	May 5th, 2009 at 08:15 GMT	3 points
	If we can get "integumentary" for typing in "skin" can we get "urinary" for typing in "urine?"

	jrose:	May 5th, 2009 at 08:25 GMT	4 points
	is it weird that the first system i think of is the lymphatic system yet i forgot respiratory?...

	debbiedoesnothin:	May 5th, 2009 at 08:53 GMT	5 points
	If skin works for integumentary, I think lymph should work for lymphatic.

	eln77:	May 5th, 2009 at 09:06 GMT	15 points
	I had a really hard time thinking of Reproductive. In my defense, though, I am a computer geek and thus have little experience with it.

	jaspa:	May 5th, 2009 at 09:12 GMT	7 points
	The low percentage next to the Reproductive system worries me. We are going to need to create a new generation of Sporclers somehow.

	Haunter:	May 5th, 2009 at 09:28 GMT	3 points
	no Nutrisystem?

	Deepbite:	May 5th, 2009 at 12:12 GMT	7 points
	Does everybody know what time it is? Wikipedia Time. The Integumentary system is a collection of organs, skin being the principal member. Etymology - Latin integumentum, from integere to cover; from in- + tegere to cover[1]) is the organ system that protects the body from damage, comprising the skin and its appendages[2](including hair, scales, and nails)

	Deepbite:	May 5th, 2009 at 12:12 GMT	6 points
	although I hope humans don't have scales....
