EOC Review: Plant and Animal Systems

What is the correct term that describes the tendency of a plant to grow towards light?

• thigmotropism

• gravitropism

• hydrotropism

• phototropism

When a plant is left in a closed clear container, moisture can be observed inside the container. The water comes from....

• Photosynthesis

• Cellular Respiration

• A decrease in the function of phloem

• Damage to the xylem

Phloem delivers the sugar made during photysynthesis to various parts of a plant. Some food energy is converted into ATP for use during plant activities such as phototropism. Which two plant systems are interacting in this scenario?

• Reproductive and Response

• Transport and Response

• Reproductive and Transport

• No plant systems are interacting

The diagram shows how hormones produced by a flower inhibit the developemnt of a bud, temporarily preventing the bud from maturing. Which 2 systems are interacting in the diagram?

• Roproductive and Support

• Reproductive and Response

• Support and Transport

• No systems are interacting in this scenario

This picture shows a reflex arc in a human. This pathway responds whe someone touches something that causes pain. Which of the following shows the correct order of the body systems involved in this response?

• Integumentary, respiratory, digestive

• Circulatory, respiratory, nervous

• Integumentary, nervous, muscular

• Circulatory, digestive, nervous

Homeostatic regulation of the body is made possible through coordination of all body systems. This coordination is acheived mainly by

• Nervous and Endocrine Systems

• Respiratory and Reproductive Systems

• Skeletal and Excretory systems

• Circulatory and Digesgtive Systems

This picture shows some nodes which may contain macrophages that break down viruses and other harmful materials. Nodes can also contain cells that help capture harmful substances. Different parts of the body are drained by different nodes. Which body systems are responsible for regulating these nodes and protecting the body from harmful materials?

• Immune and lymphatic

• Digestive and nervous system

• Endocrine and digestive

• Ciruclatory and nervous

Which of the following is an example of the endocrine system directly interacting with the nervous system?

• The verterae protect the spinal cord from injury

• Hormones provide feedback that affects neural processing.

• Sensory receptors in bones send signals about body position to the brain.

• The brain sends signals that control the speed at which food moves through the intestines.

Invasive plant species affect the interactions of living and nonliving parts of an ecosystem. The goal of plant control methods is to dirsupt function of different plant systems. Which of these functions would be most immediately affected by a reduction in water uptake by roots?

• Disease Resistance

• Seed Dispersal

• Sunlight Absorption

• Photosynthesis

Cytokinins are a class of plant hormones that help regulate growth by promoting cell division. Cytokinins are produces in merismatic tissue where most plant growth occurs. Which system caries cytokinins produced in the roots to the rest of the plant?

• Vasucular System

• Dermal System

• Reproductive System

• None of these
