Lymph nodes store and release
red blood cells
white blood cells
bile
blood
This system helps regulate body temperature and protects an organism from infection
digestive system
integumentary system
skeletal system
muscular system
White blood cells
are pathogens
help destroy pathogens
clot your blood
absorb nutrients

integumentary and skeletal
muscular and skeletal
endocrine and reproductive
excretory and integumentary
Which body system filters blood through the kidneys and transports waste out of the body?
Excretory system
Respiratory system
Endocrine system
Skeletal system
The diaphragm muscle pulls air in to the lungs. What two body systems are working together?
skeletal and excretory
respiratory and muscular
muscular and skeletal
digestive and circulatory
Your spinal cord sends a signal to your hand to move. What two body systems are working together?
respiratory and excretory
circulatory and respiratory
nervous and muscular
integumentary and digestive
Red bone marrow produces red blood cells. What two body systems are working together?
muscular and skeletal
skeletal and circulatory
integumentary and excretory
reproductive and immune
A sphincter muscle relaxes allowing urine to be expelled from the body. What two body systems are working together?
skeletal and circulatory
muscular and excretory
digestive and respiratory
reproductive and endocrine
Homeostasis keeps which of these balanced?
blood pressure
blood glucose
body temperature
all of the above
Homeostasis is
internal process to keep the body stable and balanced
a pathogen that slowly eats away at your internal organs
only refers to negative feedback
only refers to positive feedback
Insulin decreases blood glucose levels to get them back to normal. This an example of what kind of feedback?
Negative feedback
Positive feedback
During childbirth, a woman's body will release a hormone called oxytocin which stimulates uterine contractions and speeds up labor. Is this an example of negative or positive feedback?
Negative Feedback
Positive Feedback
If blood pressure rises too high then the nerves relay the message to the brain. The brain then slows down the heart rate and dilates the blood vessels. This lowers the blood pressure back to normal. Is this an example of negative or positive feedback?
Negative Feedback
Positive feedback
When you get a cut and begin to bleed chemicals signal for your body to produce platelets that help stop the bleeding. Your body will continue producing platelets until the wound is sealed. Is this an example of negative or positive feedback?
Negative Feedback
Positive feedback
