12.

The female reproductive and endocrine systems work interactively for which main purpose?

a)

To maintain homeostasis by removing waste products from the body

b)

To release neurotransmitters during times of stress

c)

To control hormone levels to prepare the body for pregnancy

d)

To exchange gases to support cellular aerobic respiration

13.

How do the circulatory system and immune system work together to respond to an injury?

a)

Increased blood flow kills healthy cells which prevents infection at the site of the injury.

b)

Increased blood flow removes infected cells from the body at the site of the injury.

c)

Increased blood flow carries white blood cells to the site of the injury.

d)

Increased blood flow allows for an increase in the exchange of O2 and CO2 at the site of the injury.

14.

The picture shows bean-shaped glands called nodes. The clusters of cells in nodes include macrophages that break down viruses and other potentially harmful materials. Nodes also contain cells that produce protein particles capable of capturing harmful materials that flow in tissue fluid through the nodes. Different parts of the body are drained by nodes in different regions of the body.


Which body systems are directly responsible for regulating these nodes and protecting the body from harmful materials in tissue fluid?

a)

Immune and lymphatic systems

b)

Digestive and nervous system

c)

Endocrine and digestive systems

d)

Circulatory and nervous systems

15.

When your body comes in contact with a sharp object, an impulse sent you your brain triggers a reflex that causes you to move away from the object. What body systems are interacting to cause this response?

a)

Nervous, Respiratory,

b)

Nervous, Muscular

c)

Nervous, Skeletal

d)

Nervous, Digestive

16.

Olympic sprinters undergo increased heart and breathing rates while competing. Which of the following best describes the interactions among systems of a sprinter?

a)

Respiratory system is working to obtain more oxygen, while the circulatory system works to transport the oxygen to the muscles.

b)

The digestive system takes in more glucose, while the excretory system removes waste.

c)

The endocrine system transports ATP to the nervous system

d)

Excretory system removes waste from the digestive system to reduce weight so the sprinter can run faster

Circulatory system

c)

Muscular system

d)

Nervous system
