Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. As the spokesperson for the Nervous System, I stand before you today to make my case for why we deserve the prestigious title of "Most Influential Body System Ever." Without a doubt, our system plays a pivotal role in maintaining the harmony and functionality of the human body. One of our primary responsibilities is to transmit electrical signals throughout the body, allowing for quick and efficient communication between various parts. We also regulate and control all bodily functions, including movement, sensation, and thinking. However, it is crucial to acknowledge the negative impact that can occur if something goes awry with our system. The devastating consequences can range from sensory impairments, such as blindness or deafness, to severe neurological disorders like Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease. We hold the power to shape our experience of the world and control our very essence. Therefore, I firmly believe that the Nervous System deserves the award for its undeniable influence and impact on human existence.

Read the entry from last year’s winner: the Reproductive System.
“Good afternoon, my name is the Reproductive System. Thank you for your consideration for this year’s ‘Most Influential Body System Ever’ award. First of all, I would like to mention that i am needed to create life. Sadly if there are abnormalities or damage to any of my parts, infertility can occur. My responsibilities include producing eggs and sperm cells, transporting and sustaining these cells, nurturing the developing offspring and producing the correct hormones when needed.”
