The diagram above represents an example of how the body regulates itself. This diagram describes what relationship in body systems?

• The circulatory system and nervous system interact to absorb nutrients.

• The circulatory system and digestive system interact to defend the body from diseases.

• The circulatory system and nervous system interact to maintain homeostasis.

• The nervous system and immune system interact for reproduction.

• reproduction

• transport of necessary materials

• response to environmental change

When one side of a plant is not getting enough light, a hormone is produced in the shoot system causing growth on the darker side of the plant. This growth on the darker side causes the plant to bend. This is an example of:

• a plant’s ability to reproduce

• uptake of water through the plant’s root system

• defense from possible predators

• a plant’s ability to respond to its environmental conditions

Which scenario below best describes the interaction between the endocrine and reproductive system.

• Hormones are produced causing ovulation in a female.

• Muscles are contracted, pushing food from the stomach into the small intestine.

• A male rabbit sees and chases a female rabbit.

• A bird lays her eggs, and protects them from possible predators.

What tissue found in both the root and shoot systems of plants conducts water and minerals through the plant?

• Xylem

• Phloem

• Cuticle

• Chloroplast

The stimuli for phototropism

• Touch

• Light

• Gravity

• negative hydrotropism

• positive phototropism

• negative thigmotropism
