9.

The Muscular System consists of layers of muscles that cover the bones of the skeleton, extend across joints, and can contract and relax to produce movement.

a)

True

b)

False

10.

The Cardiovascular System is an organ system that permits blood to circulate and transport nutrients (such as amino acids and electrolytes), oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones, and blood cells to and from the cells in the body to provide nourishment.

a)

False

b)

True

11.

The immune system is a host defense system comprising many biological structures and processes within an organism that protects against disease.

a)

True

b)

False

12.

The skeletal system is a highly complex part of an animal that coordinates its actions and sensory information by transmitting signals to and from different parts of its body. The nervous system detects environmental changes that impact the body, then works in tandem with the endocrine system to respond to such events.

a)

False

b)

True
