Body Systems Quiz

How do plants transport materials?

• By absorbing nutrients from the soil

• By using specialized tissues

• Through their roots

• By diffusion and osmosis

What is the function of stomata in plants?

• To allow the exchange of gases

• To produce food through photosynthesis

• To support the plant structure

• To transport water and nutrients

What is the main function of the respiratory system in humans?

• To exchange gases between the body and the environment

• To transport nutrients throughout the body

• To remove waste products from the body

• To support the body's structure and movement

What is the role of alveoli in the respiratory system?

• To produce mucus for respiratory protection

• To transport oxygen to the body's cells

• To facilitate gas exchange between the lungs and the blood

• To filter out impurities from the inhaled air

What is the function of the circulatory system?

• To provide structural support for the body

• To eliminate waste products from the body

• To regulate body temperature

• To transport materials, including oxygen, throughout the body

What is the difference between open and closed circulatory systems?

• Open circulatory systems have a faster blood flow than closed circulatory systems

• Open circulatory systems transport blood and other fluids into open spaces, while closed circulatory systems use vessels

• Open circulatory systems have a higher blood pressure than closed circulatory systems

• Open circulatory systems are found in mammals, while closed circulatory systems are found in invertebrates

What is the main function of gills in aquatic animals?

• To produce mucus for respiratory protection

• To provide structural support for the animal's body

• To filter out food particles from the water

• To facilitate gas exchange between the animal and the water

What is the purpose of diffusion in gas exchange?

• To transport oxygen and carbon dioxide through the bloodstream

• To remove waste products from the body

• To allow the movement of substances from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration

• To regulate the body's temperature

What is the role of capillaries in the circulatory system?

• To enable the exchange of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nutrients between the circulatory system and the body's cells

• To provide structural support for the blood vessels

• To transport blood away from the heart

• To filter out impurities from the blood

What is the function of the diaphragm in the respiratory system?

• To transport oxygen to the body's cells

• To contract and relax to facilitate breathing

• To produce mucus for respiratory protection

• To filter out impurities from the inhaled air
