L2- An ecologist plans to spend several days underground in a cave. Doctors on land will monitor his body to make sure he is healthy during his journey. What is one way doctors will be able to tell whether his body is healthy enough to do all his tasks while he is underground?

The doctors could see if his cells are getting the molecules they need to from food and air.

The doctors could see if his cells are getting several different types of food molecules.

The doctors could see if he is getting plenty of sleep so his body can make enough energy.

The doctors could see if his lung cells have molecules from air and his stomach cells have molecules from food.

L2- A volleyball player thinks that she can exercise as long as she eats different types of food because her body just needs different types of food molecules to work properly. Is the player correct?

No, all cells need molecules from food and molecules from air to work properly.

Yes, her cells only work when they have molecules from different types of food.

No, her muscles do not need molecules from food because all cells make all the molecules they need

No, only her stomach cells need food molecules to work properly

L2- If a person is breathing normally, which of the following could prevent him from using his body to exercise normally?

Not eating enough food, because cells need molecules from both food and air to work.

Not getting enough sunlight, because cells need sunlight to function.

Not getting enough sleep, because the body only makes energy for exercise while asleep.

Nothing, because he would be able to exercise normally as long as his cells are getting molecules from air.

L3- The job of the respiratory system is to...

transport molecules to and from all cells of the body

L3- Organize these options into the right categories

Breaks down protein into amino acids

Breaks down starch into glucose

Transports oxygen to the cells of the body

Transports amino acids and glucose to the cells of the body

L3- The circulatory system...

transports amino acids, glucose and oxygen to the cells.

transports only amino acids and glucose to the cells.

transports only oxygen to the cells.

transports protein, starch and oxygen to the cells.

L4- Stephanie has been chewing and swallowing her food, but her digestive system is not doing what it usually does. Why is this a problem for her ability to exercise?

Her cells will not work well because molecules from her food are not being broken down small enough to get to her cells.

Her body will run out of energy because molecules from the air are not being combined into larger molecules for the cells.

Her respiratory system will have to work twice as hard to break down molecules from food.

Her cells will not work well because the molecules from food will be too small for cells to use.

L4- The test report above shows the level of molecules in different parts of the patient's body. What does this test indicate about how her body systems are working?

Her body systems are working properly.

Her digestive system is not combining molecules together.

Her digestive system is not breaking down molecules from food.

Her respiratory system is not breaking down molecules from air

L4- Milo had a lunch of rice before going to his doctor. Rice is mostly made up of starch molecules. Milo is feeling tired, so the doctor ran a test and found that Milo's cells had glucose molecules, but there weren’t enough oxygen molecules present. Could this be why Milo is feeling tired?

Yes, his digestive system is breaking down starch molecules, but his respiratory system may not be working properly.

No, something else must be wrong because his cells have all the molecules they need

Yes, his respiratory system is working, but his digestive system is not betting energy from combining glucose molecules.

L6- Is there anything wrong with this data? If yes, what?

There is something wrong, the data shows low glucose in the small intestine.

There is nothing wrong, this data shows a healthy body.

There is something wrong, the data shows no glucose in the lungs.

There is something wrong, the data shows normal starch in the mouth.

L6- Is there anything wrong with this data? If yes, what?

There is nothing wrong, this data shows a healthy body.

There is something wrong, the data shows no glucose in the lungs.

There is something wrong, the data shows normal starch in the mouth.

There is something wrong, the data shows low glucose in the small intestine.

L10- Two soccer teams, the Bears and the Panthers, played games at the same time in two different locations. The Bears game was played at sea level, where there is a normal amount of oxygen. Before their game, the players on the Bears ate a lunch of mostly starch. The Panthers game was played at very high altitude, where there is less oxygen. The players on the Panthers ate a lunch of starch and protein. Which team probably did better in their game?

The Bears probably did better because their cells released energy from oxygen reacting with glucose, which was broken down from starch in the digestive system.

The Panthers probably did better because their cells released energy from breaking down protein in the digestive system, which then combined with oxygen in cells

The teams did equally well because their digestive systems just need to break down starch into glucose for cells to release energy.

The teams did equally well because glucose from starch can react with oxygen or proteins to release energy.

L10- A student thinks that the human body only works properly when cells are getting molecules from food and molecules from air. Is the student correct?

Yes, the body only works when cells get molecules from food and molecules from air.

No, the body only works when cells are getting molecules from different types of food.

No, the body only works when the lungs get molecules from air, and the stomach gets molecules from food.

No, the body works as long as cells are making all the molecules they need.

L10- Doctors tested a patient to find out what molecules were in her cells. Her cells contained normal levels of oxygen molecules, low levels of amino acid molecules, and low levels of glucose molecules. Will this patient be able to exercise normally?

No, her cells need glucose to react with oxygen to release enough energy to exercise.

Yes, as long as her cells have enough oxygen, her body will be able to exercise.

No, her cells need amino acids to react with oxygen to release enough energy to exercise.

No, her cells need glucose to react with amino acids to release enough energy to exercise.

L10- Jamal ate a meal of rice before seeing his doctor. Rice is made of mostly starch molecules. Jamal has been feeling tired a lot, so his doctor gave him a test that found that Jamal’s cells contained normal levels of oxygen and low levels of glucose. Does this explain why Jamal has been feeling tired?

Yes, Jamal’s respiratory system is working, but his digestive system is not breaking down starch molecules into glucose for his cells.

Yes, Jamal’s respiratory system is working, but his digestive system is not turning the oxygen into glucose.

Yes, Jamal’s digestive system is working, but his respiratory system has too much oxygen, so his body stopped making energy.

No, something else must be wrong with Jamal because his cells have all the molecules they need.

L10- Which best states how the parts of the digestive and circulatory systems interact to allow this to occur?

Nutrients from food enter the intestines and are absorbed by blood vessels that then transport them to other parts of the body.

Nutrients from food are broken down inside the blood vessels of the body and then transported to the intestines to be absorbed.

Nutrients from food enter the intestines and are absorbed by blood vessels that then transport them to the pancreas for further digestion.

Nutrients from food are absorbed by blood vessels in the body and then transported to the intestines to be broken down.
