During the final stages of human gestation, receptors for the hormone oxytocin increase on the smooth muscle cells of the uterus. The release of oxytocin during labor stimulates the smooth muscle tissue in the wall of the uterus. The vigorous contraction of the uterine smooth muscle helps push the baby through the birth canal so that delivery can occur. This process involves the interaction of which organ systems?

• endocrine and muscular only

• endocrine and reproductive only

• endocrine, muscular, and reproductive

• endocrine, reproductive and excretory

Which two systems alert the young bird to the danger and help produce the vomit it uses as a defense?

• Nervous and Digestive

• Integumentary and Muscular

• Immune and Respiratory

• Excretory and Reproductive

Which body systems work together to protect the body from pathogens?

• Muscular and Vascular

• Digestive and Excretory

• Circulatory and Immune

• Endocrine and Reproductive

According to the diagram below, how does the level of organization in biological systems progress?

• Increasing in complexity from left to right

• Increasing in complexity from right to left

• Increasing in complexity from top to bottom

• Increasing in complexity from bottom to top
