Systems review 3

Groups of different tissues working together to perform a particular function are called . . .

• compound tissues

• macromolecules

• organ systems

• organs

Cells become specialized for different functions through . . .

• classification

• cell differentiation

• cell division

• homeostasis

Groups of similar cells that work together to carry out a specific task are called . . .

• cell systems

• nucleic acids

• organs

• tissues

Which of these images represents a tissue?

• 
• 
• 
• 

What is the function of the digestive system?

• A collection of glands that produce hormones
• Allows blood to circulate to and from the cells in the body
• To convert food into energy and nutrients to feed the body
• Controls the activities of the body by transmiting nerve impulses

What is the function of the nervous system?

• A collection of glands that produce hormones
• Allows blood to circulate to and from the cells in the body
• To convert food into energy and nutrients to feed the body
• Controls the activities of the body by transmitting nerve impulses

Choose the correct order of organization from simplest to most complex.

• tissues --> cells --> organs --> organism --> organ system

• organism --> organ system --> organs --> tissues --> cells

• organs --> organ system --> tissues --> organism --> cells

• cells --> tissues -->organs --> organ systems --> organism

The diagram shows the reproductive system of a plant.
Which of the following best describes the interaction that occurs between a plant’s reproductive parts during self-fertilization?

• Pollen is released from the anther and is transferred to the stigma.  A pollen tube forms and grows through the style.  The pollen tube reaches the filament, where the sperm fertilizes the egg.
• Pollen moves from the ovule up through the style and is released from the stigma.  The pollen is transferred to the anther, where the sperm fertilizes the egg.
• Pollen is released from the anther and is transferred to the stigma. A pollen tube forms and grows through the style.  The pollen tube reaches an ovule within the ovary, where the sperm fertilizes the egg.
• Pollen is released from the stigma and is transferred to the anther.  A pollen tube grows down from the anther through the filament and fuses with the ovule, where the sperm fertilizes the egg.

The internal transport of water and minerals in plants requires that two systems work together.  Which diagram correctly describes how the two systems accomplish this?

• F
• G
• H
• J

An informational pamphlet in a health clinic describes an interaction between body systems.
Which statement identifies the body systems that are directly involved in the interaction described and explains how they accomplish the interaction?

• The nervous system produces hormones that stimulate the ovum, and the circulatory system moves the ovum into the uterine tube.
• The circulatory system supplies the uterine wall with oxygenated blood, and the immune system prevents damage to the ovum.
• The reproductive system produces the ovum, and the muscular system causes the migration of the ovum by peristaltic contractions.
• The excretory system expels the ovum from the ovary, and the nervous system causes the contractions of the smooth tissues of the uterine wall.
