Leaves are part of a plant's shoot system. Which statement below correctly describes the role of xylem and phloem in the shoots of plants?
the xylem transport bacteria needed for nitrogen fixation in the root nodules and the phloem transports water
the xylem transports wax required to coat the surface of actively growing tissue and the phloem transports glucose needed to support the new tissue growth
the xylem transports the water and minerals that are absorbed by the roots and the phloem transports the glucose made in the leaves from photosynthesis to where the plant needs energy
the xylem transports the oxygen that regulates the rate of carbohydrate production and the phloem transports the water needed for the stomata to expel excess water.
Which of the following correctly describes an interaction that occurs between two body systems of a squirrel that helps the squirrel outrun a pursuing fox
The respiratory system increases the breathing rate, and the circulatory system increases blood pressure to provide tissues with more oxygen.
The endocrine system releases hormones that prepare the immune system to deal with possible injuries.
The digestive system increases the rate of digestion, and the excretory system ceases to provide tissues with more nutrients.
The skeletal system releases additional calcium, and the circulatory system retains more sodium in the blood to provide muscles with ions for contraction.
Plant hormones serve as chemical messengers between cells and tissues. Auxin is a plant hormone that causes the cells on the shady side of a plant shoot to elongate. The response enabled by auxin is known as--
geotropism, because plants always grow their roots towards the sun
transpiration, because plants breathe hormones out of the stomata
phototropism, because the plant is growing out of the shade and elongating towards the sun
photosynthesis, because the plant is breathing in oxygen to breathe out carbon dioxide
Zinc is a micronutrient that can be found in soil. Zinc is important for plant development and hormone production. Which statement correctly describes the interaction that occurs between the root and the shoot systems of plants to allow growth and development to occur?
Zinc is produced in the roots when zinc-containing compounds are hydrolyzed.
Zinc that is absorbed by the roots is transported to target tissues by the shoot system.
The shoot system stores zinc for later use by the roots.
THe shoot system transports zinc to the roots after it is taken in through stomata in the leaves.
What is responsible for moving food through the digestive tract?
urine produced by the kidneys
the enzyme amylase in saliva
muscular contractions of the intestines
hydrochloric acid in the stomach
After placing a celery stalk in a blue dye solution for one day, students check the stalk to make observations. They notice that the leaves at the end of the stalk are now blue. The small openings along the edge of the celery stalk are also blue. How do the plant systems work together to make this possible?
The roots absorb water and minerals and move them up to the stem, while the stem transports materials to and from the leaves
The roots anchor the plant in the soil, and the stem supports the plant
The stem absorbs water and minerals through the leaves
The roots lose water vapor through the soil, and the stem loses water vapor through the leaves
Leaves have an outer layer which consists of epidermal cells and guard cells. Guard cells surround openings called stomata, which allow gas exchange. The epidermal cells are covered with a waterproof layer to provide protection from injury and loss of water. Which two human body systems have functions that are most similar to the epidermal cells and stomata in plants?
skeletal and respiratory
cardiovascular and skeletal
integumentary and respiratory
cardiovascular and integumentary
Which system does the respiratory system work with to provide cells with oxygen while removing carbon dioxide?
Endocrine
Skeletal
Circulatory
Integumentary
Which of the following functions at the same organizational level as the heart in the human circulatory system?
skeleton
epithelial tissue
urinary bladder
squamous cell
When a person burns herself on a hot object, like an eye on a stove, a nervous impulse is sent along a sensory neuron to the spinal cord. The impulse is immediately transmitted through motor neurons to produce a response. Which of the following correctly identifies and describes this response?
It is a conditioned response the occurs only to prevent injury
It is a learned response that does not occur in infants and small children
It is a reflex that causes various muscles to contract and move away from the object
It is a voluntary response that is initiated only after the impulse has been carried to the relevant area in the brain.
During childbirth, the uterus must contract to push the baby through the birth canal. To accomplish this, the hormone oxytocin is released to stimulate the smooth muscle tissue of the uterus. Which organ systems are interacting to complete this process?
endocrine and reproductive only
respiratory, circulatory, and muscular
endocrine, muscular, and reproductive
endocrine and muscular only
Plants have hormones that help regulate growth by promoting cell division. These hormones are called cytokinins and they are produced in the meristematic tissue of the plant. Which system helps the cytokinins produced in the roots travel to the rest of the plant?
dermal system
epithelial cells
reproductive system
vascular system
Chemically contaminated food can cause many different illnesses. Scientists study these foods and associated illnesses to reduce their impact on society. Through interactions between the digestive and immune systems, the chemicals harm the body. Which of the following describes the interactions between the digestive and immune systems in this scenario?
the chemicals in the contaminated foods enter the body through the digestive system. These chemicals then impair the body's ability to fight off diseases.
the chemicals enter the body through cuts on the skin. The chemicals are then passed to the digestive system through the circulatory system.
the immune system transforms the chemicals into harmless chemicals.
the immune system prevents the chemicals from entering the digestive system.
Kidneys are an important organ in the excretory system. Their job is to filter out impurities in the blood and send it back to the rest of the body. Plasma is a component of blood that helps hold the blood cells together. Of the systems listed below, which one is mainly responsible for the transport of plasma to the kidneys?
digestive system
circulatory system
nervous system
endocrine system

Invasive plant species spread quickly and can displace native plants .So the removal of invasive plants often necessary.One way to disrupt the function of different plant system to use insects so they can chew through the roots of invasive plants to reduce their ability to absorb water.
Reduction in water uptake would most likely affect the functions of which of the following?
Photosynthesis

Maria is conducting an experiment to show phototropism in her Biology class. She uses the diagram below to show her control group which was provided full light and the experimental group which was provided sunlight on one side only. Which statement best explains why the plant tip is bending towards the light?
Water evaporated faster on the side of the plant that has not light.
A hormone called auxin promotes the growth and elongation of cells in the shaded area. This causes the plant to bend towards the light.
The xylem tissue causes the bending of the plant towards the light.
The side facing the light has a greater chance of absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere.
