Plant & Body Systems Review Quiz

What is the correct hierarchal order (smallest to largest)?

• Cells, organs, tissues organ systems

• tissues, cells, organ, organ system

• organelles, tissues, cells, organs

• cells, tissues, organs, organ systems

The part of the plant

that is generally above the ground including stems, leaves, buds and reproductive structures

• Stem System

• Leaf system

• Shoot system

• Xylem

Vascular tissue (tubes) responsible for the transportation of water and minerals up from the roots and around the plant.

• Stomata

• Transpiration

• Phloem

• Xylem

Vascular tissue (tubes) responsible for the transportation of glucose down and around in a plant.

• Transpiration

• Xylem

• Phloem

• Root Hairs

A student reads this advertisement for a product containing a plant micronutrient that can be added to soil.
Based on this information, the student can conclude that boron is absorbed by plant roots from soil and then —

• transported to reproductive tissues by the plant’s shoot system
• stored in plant stems until the flowers are pollinated
• concentrated in the roots until the plant’s reproductive tissues mature
• transported by the phloem to the stomata in leaves, where it attracts pollinators

 Recent studies in bone research indicate that using ultrasound on a broken bone can decrease the healing time by 25%. Which of these are the most basic levels of organization involved when a bone heals? 

• Cells and tissue
• Cells and organ system
• Organ system and organism
• Tissue and organ system

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

• The vertebrae 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.

The diagram demonstrates a feedback process involving antidiuretic hormone (ADH). ADH increases the permeability of parts of the nephrons of the kidney, resulting in less water in the urine.
This feedback loop is likely to be activated when — 

• the body experiences dehydration
• blood glucose levels are stable
• body temperature drops
• the urinary tract is infected

The picture shows bean-shaped glands called nodes. The clusters of cells in nodes include macrophages that break down viruses and other potentially harmful materials. Nodes also contain cells that produce protein particles capable of capturing harmful materials that flow in tissue fluid through the nodes. Different parts of the body are drained by nodes in different regions of the body.
Which body systems are directly responsible for regulating these nodes and protecting the body from harmful materials in tissue fluid?

• Immune and lymphatic systems
• Digestive and nervous systems
• Endocrine and digestive systems
• Circulatory and nervous systems

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

• Vascular system
• Dermal system
• Reproductive system
• None of these
