Total questions: 22
Worksheet time: 22mins
What is the function of the digestive system?
It transports blood and oxygen to your cells
It breaks down food so the nutrients can be absorbed by your body
It helps you breathe by taking in oxygen and transporting carbon dioxide out of your body
It helps you move
What is the function of the muscular system?
The function is movement of the body through muscles
The function is to get rid of waste
The function is to process food for nutrients and energy
The function is to protect you against disease
What is the function of the cardiovascular / circulatory system?
To provide nutrients to the whole body
To maintain homeostasis for the body
To fight off infection or disease
To transport nutrients, oxygen, and blood throughout the body
A student visits the doctor for a yearly checkup. Her doctor notes that her blood pressure is high and her ankles and feet are swollen due fluid build-up in her body. Based on the
evidence, which TWO organ systems may NOT be functioning properly.
the digestive system, due to the swelling of her ankles, and the circulatory system, due to her high blood pressure.
the excretory system, due to her body’s inability to remove liquid waste, and the circulatory system, which is not properly pumping blood or carrying materials throughout her body.
the respiratory system, due to her high blood pressure, and the muscular system, which has affected her bladder’s ability to remove liquid waste from her body through urination.
What is the function of the immune system?
To digest food
To fight against pathogens and diseases
To help you breathe
To remove waste from the body
What is the function of the nervous system?
Controls all parts of the body; sends signals between the brain, spinal cord, and nerve endings
What happens when you get nervous to do something
To fight off diseases
To carry oxygen, nutrients, and blood throughout the body
What is the function of the respiratory system?
To digest your food
To remove waste from the body
To take in oxygen and remove carbon dioxide
To fight disease
What is the function of the excretory/urinary system?
Removes liquid waste from your body
digests food
helps you breathe
circulates your blood
True or False: Your respiratory system uses your nose and mouth only to remove oxygen and take in carbon dioxide
True
False
You’re sick, but no one is home. You need soup and Gatorade. You get enough strength to leave your bed and go make soup. What body systems are working together to help you move and fight disease?
excretory and digestive
muscular and immune
skeletal and immune
immune and digestive
The steel beams that hold up a tall building are most analogous (similar) to which body system?
skeletal
muscular
digestive
immune
What is the function of the skeletal system?
Movement of the body
transports oxygen, blood, nutrients throughout the body
removes waste
supports the body by holding it up; muscles are attached to help with movement
How do the body systems work together when you accidentally touch a hot pan?
The cardiovascular/circulatory system sends signals to your hand to move it, and your nervous system moves your hand
The nervous system (brain, spinal cord, and nerves) send a signal to your hand to move it, and your muscular system causes your hand to move
The digestive system moves your hand, and the cardiovascular/circulatory system sends signals to your hand
The nervous system causes your hand to move, and the muscular system breaks down nutrients for your muscles to move
When I RUN up the stairs, what four systems am I using?
Cardiovascular, Skeletal, Muscular, and Respiratory
Excretory/Urinary, Skeletal, Digestive, and Muscular
Muscular, Skeletal, Respiratory and Digestive
Pathogens are disease causing agents such as bacteria, virus, or fungi. What systems work together to protect the body from these would be invaders?
endocrine and reproductive
circulatory and immune
digestive and skeletal
lymphatic and respiratory
The integument system acts as the first line of defense against infection while the immune system produces a variety of cells to defend against invaders that enter the body. What conclusion can be made by these actions
These two systems are working for different purposes
The interaction of these two systems work for a specific and common purpose in the body
These are actually the same systems under different names and do the same jobs.
These two systems typically work independently of each other and do not share roles.
Which system listed below is in the order of cellular hierarchy? simple to complex
integumentary system -> skin cell -> hair
nerve cell -> brain -> ganglion - > neurons
skin cell -> epidermis -> integumentary system
heart -> lungs - > bronchii -> muscle cell
When you saved Fred on Brainpop, which systems worked together to help him evade the wolf?
The immune system releases antibodies to heal possible infections, endocrine delivers adrenaline to increase Fred's speed.
Respiratory system increases Fred's breathing rate while the circulatory system increases blood pressure to provide more oxygen to tissues and cells.
The digestive system increases rate of digestion while excretory system causes Fred to pee his pants
circulatory system delivers more blood to the muscles system so Fred will be able to bleed profusely while being attacked by the wolf.
The respiratory and circulatory systems work together to
bring newly digested food to the cells
provide oxygen to cells while removing carbon dioxide
transport hormones to the excretory system
these two systems work dependently of each other and do not help with homeostasis
