5.L.1.2 Human Body Systems

All of a human's organ systems interact with each other. How do a human's circulatory and respiratory systems interact?

• The circulatory system pumps blood to the stomach to aid in digestion.

• The respiratory system rids the circulatory system of extra fluids and cells.

• The respiratory system provides the pump that helps the circulatory system move blood throughout the body.

• The circulatory system transports the oxygen brought in by the respiratory system to other areas of the body.

Select the choice that best completes the following sentence:

The _______ and _______ systems work together to allow us to walk, run, lift objects, and move around.

• immune; reproductive

• reproductive; skeletal

• digestive; immune

• muscular; skeletal

Select the choice that best completes the following sentence:

The _______ system breaks down the food we eat, while the _______ system transports the nutrients to each cell in the body.

• circulatory; digestive

• digestive; respiratory

• muscular; circulatory

• digestive; circulatory

How does the skeletal system benefit the digestive system?

• It protects organs within the system.

• It supplies movement to organs within the system.

• It provides oxygen to organs within the system.

• It provides nutrients to organs within the system.

How does the muscular system depend on the nervous system?

• The nervous system transports blood to the muscles.

• The nervous system provides support for the muscles.

• The nervous system supplies food and oxygen to the muscles.

• The nervous system sends signals to the muscles to cause movement.

How does the circulatory system work with the digestive system?

• Blood is used to build muscle strength.

• Food is broken down in the bloodstream.

• Blood transports nutrients throughout the body.

• Food waste is filtered by the heart and blood vessels.

Which best describes the relationship between the cardiovascular system and the muscular system?

• The cardiovascular system captures carbon dioxide from the air for muscle energy.

• The cardiovascular system produces red blood cells to bring oxygen to muscles.

• The cardiovascular system provides a framework for muscle movement.

• The cardiovascular system delivers oxygen for muscle energy.

How does the skeletal system benefit the nervous system?

• It protects the lungs.

• It protects the heart.

• It protects the brain and spinal cord.

• It protects the esophagus and stomach.

Which best describes the relationship between the skeletal system and the circulatory system?

• The skeletal system transports red blood cells after the circulatory system produces them.

• The skeletal system protects red blood cells and the circulatory system pumps those cells through veins and arteries.

• The skeletal system produces red blood cells and the circulatory system transports those cells where they need to go.

• The skeletal system helps put oxygen in red blood cells and the circulatory system helps those cells rid the body of carbon dioxide.
