Intro to Anatomy

The study of the structure of an organism is called

• homeostasis
• anatomy
• physiology
• atrophy

What is the most important function of the excretory system?

• break down food

• pump blood

• remove waste

• voluntary movement

This is a complex system in our body that transports needed materials. It includes the heart and blood vessels.

• skeletal system

• respiratory system

• digestive system

• circulatory system

What is the biggest function of the respiratory system?

• to pump blood

• to help us digest food

• to take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide

• to help us fight disease and infection

Which two body systems are primarily responsible for gas exchange between the body and the environment?

• skeletal and muscular

• circulatory and respiratory

• circulatory and digestive

• respiratory and excretory

What is the most important function of the digestive system?

• gas exchange

• break down food into usable nutrients

• voluntary movement

• fight bacteria and disease

Which two systems work together to break down and transport nutrients?

• muscular and respiratory

• circulatory and skeletal

• digestive and circulatory

• endocrine and digestive

What is the biggest function of the muscular system?

• to help digest food

• to help us move

• to help us breathe

• to help us remove waste

This is a system in the body that includes the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. It coordinates and controls the body's actions.

• digestive system

• nervous system

• circulatory system

• muscular system

Bob hits a baseball.  What two systems are working together to make this happen?

• muscular & excretory
• muscular & nervous
