Which statement below describes how the interaction of two systems causes a human arm to bend?

• A. The excretory system sends signals to the immune system.

  .

• B. The circulatory system sends signals to the nervous system

• C. The digestive system sends signals to the respiratory system.

• D. The nervous system sends signals to the musculoskeletal system.

Which of the following describes how the immune system aids the body in maintaining homeostasis?

• A. The immune system rids wastes from the body, preventing damage to the body.

  .

  .

• B. The immune system fights off infections that can affect the body and its organ systems

• C. The immune system circulates blood throughout the body, providing cells with oxygen to

  carry out cellular processes

• D. The immune system aids in the breakdown of food so that nutrients can be delivered to

  muscles and organs for growth and repair.

What option below describes how two body systems interact to maintain homeostasis?

• A. The musculoskeletal system moves to allow the white blood cells to travel throughout the

  immune system.

• B. The respiratory system provides oxygenated blood to the nervous system to provide the

  necessary nutrients.

• C. The immune system receives signals from the digestive system that the circulatory

  system is properly distributing nutrients.

• D. The respiratory and circulatory system increases oxygenated blood flow when the

  musculoskeletal system increases movement.

• A. The circulatory system crushes food for the cells, the musculoskeletal system breaks

  down nutrients from food, and the digestive system distributes nutrients throughout the

  body.

• B. The musculoskeletal system helps with the absorption of food in the body, the digestive

  system removes CO2

  from the body, and the circulatory system removes nutrients from

  the body.

• C. The musculoskeletal system filters waste out of the blood, the digestive system transports

  hormones throughout the body, and the circulatory system absorbs and delivers nutrients

  to the cells.

• D. The digestive system breaks down food into nutrients for cells, the circulatory system
