a)

carbon dioxide

b)

glucose

c)

amino acid

d)

oxygen

6.

What do you call a molecule that organisms get from the air or water around them and use to release energy

water

c)

oxygen

d)

amino acid

7.

What do you call a set of interacting parts forming a complex whole?

a)

organelle

b)

organ

c)

system

d)

heart

8.

What is the name of the body system that takes in food and breaks it down into smaller molecules?

a)

respiratory system

b)

circulatory system

c)

digestive system

d)

Pancreatic system

9.

What do you call the body system that takes in oxygen and releases carbon dioxide?

a)

respiratory system

b)

digestive system

c)

circulatory system

d)

Endocrine system

10.

What do you call the body system that transports molecules such as glucose, amino acid, and oxygen to and from all cells of the body?

a)

Respiratory system

b)

Circulatory system

c)

Digestive system

d)

Skeletal system

11.

How do molecules from food get to the cells in the body? Choose 3.

a)

The digestive system brings in food and breaks it down into smaller molecules, such as glucose and amino acids, that can fit into cells.

b)

The circulatory system transports the digested molecules to every cell in human body.

c)

The respiratory system brings in food molecules from the air.These food molecules are already small enough to fit into cells so the circulatory system delivers them to the cells.

d)

The digestive system and the circulatory system work together to bring glucose and amino acids to the cells of the human body.

12.

How do molecules from air get to the cells in the body?

Choose 3.

a)

The respiratory system brings in oxygen molecules from the air.These oxygen molecules are already small enough to fit into cells.

b)

The digestive system brings in oxygen and breaks it down into smaller molecules that can fit into cells.

c)

The circulatory system transports the oxygen molecules to every cell in the body.

d)

The respiratory system and the circulatory system work together to bring oxygen from the air to the cells in the human body

13.

Having a medical condition affects the delivery of molecules to cells in the body because in a functioning human body, body systems work together to deliver glucose, oxygen, and amino acid molecules to the cells in the body. A problem with a body system can result in (a)   oxygen, glucose, and/or amino acid molecules getting to the body’s cells.

14.

What do you call the structure that covers the cell and acts as a gatekeeper to the cell?

a)

nucleus

b)

cytoplasm

c)

mitochondria

d)

cell membrane

15.

c)

Same

d)

various

17.
