Human Body

"Blending In But Staying Special"

Red, brown, yellow,
black and white,
Let's look at people
on our site.

We'll take a look at systems
that make the body work,
and learn that sometimes
there might be some quirks.

A heart may lose its ability
to pump the blood it needs,
Or a kidney no longer functions
to its capacity.

We'll learn about a hero
who gave a gift of life,
And even a recipient
who was given a better life.

Organ donation is an issue
that many don't like to discuss;
But hopefully after seeing this site
you'll decide it might be a plus!

Why Lizards?

You might be wondering how lizards have ended up in a web site about the human body and organ transplants. Lizards are animals that have had to change and adapt in order to survive. Where they live determines what they eat. Some lizards have scales to protect themselves; some can change colors to blend in with the land; and some burrow into the ground. Lizards are like our motto. They have blended in to survive, but each one is special. Besides, lizards are really neat!
