STAAR 10A Body Systems

As a runner begins to run a race, his or her respiration rate will increase. The runner begins to breathe deeper and at a rapid rate. In addition, the heart beats more quickly. This will result in more oxygen delivered to the muscle cells. Which two body systems are working together to help out the muscle cells?

• Immune system and lymphatic system
• Respiratory system and circulatory system
• Digestive system and integumentary system
• Lymphatic system and immune system

During the process of nutrient absorption in animals, which two body systems are most responsible for breaking down food into smaller pieces and distributing the nutrients to body cells?

• Endocrine system and immune system
• Digestive system and circulatory system
• Nervous system and digestive system
• Muscular system and digestive system

In humans, the gases oxygen and carbon dioxide must be exchanged between the environment and cells. During this exchange, oxygen is delivered to the red blood cells so that they can function properly in the blood stream. Which two body systems are working together to achieve this goal?

• Digestive system and circulatory system
• Endocrine system and respiratory system
• Integumentary system and immune system
• Respiratory sytem and circulatory system
