Total questions: 12
Worksheet time: 12mins
Which two body systems make movement possible?
the skeletal and muscular systems
the nervous and endocrine systems
the lymphatic and immune systems
the cardiovascular and respiratory systems
How can the circulatory and digestive systems work together?
The digestive system absorbs nutrients and the circulatory systems transports nutrients around the body
The digestive system takes in food and the circulatory system controls the muscles of the stomach
The digestive system breaks down food and circulatory system protects organs
The digestive system gets rid of waist and circulatory system gets rid of carbon dioxide
Bones are the major part of the body’s skeletal system. What is one of the main functions of bones?
release growth hormones
provide structure and support
carry oxygen to the body’s cells
serve as the main source of calcium
Organ systems work together to meet the needs of the human body. How is the skeletal system related to the nervous system
The skeleton protects the brain and spinal cord
The brain determines how the skeleton develops
The brain and spinal cord hold the skeleton together
The skeletal system works as a part of the nervous system
Humans feel hungry when their empty stomachs contract and glucose levels in their body drop. Both of the situations stimulate neurons that send messages to the brain which are interpreted as hunger. What body systems are involved in this process as described?
digestive, muscular, integumentary, and respiratory
digestive, excretory, integumentary, and skeletal
circulatory, excretory, nervous, and skeletal
circulatory, digestive, muscular, and nervous
Which system is responsible for the overall control of all the internal processes that occur in the body?
muscular system
nervous system
digestive system
skeletal system
Which body system is responsible for producing offspring?
reproductive

digestive
skeletal
There are many different viruses and bacteria that can live and reproduce inside humans and often make us sick. In which of the following ways are viruses different from bacteria?
Viral infections always cause a fever which bacterial infections never do.
Viruses must invade a host cell to reproduce while bacteria can reproduce on their own.
Virus cells, in general, are at least 3x larger than a bacteria cell.
Viral infections are more likely to disable or kill their host than bacterial infections.
Organ systems in the human body interact with each other to maintain homeostasis. What example BEST describes an interaction between the muscular system and the circulatory system?
Muscles pull on the femur bone in your legs
Cardiac muscles pump blood through the body
Nerve impulses send a signal for muscles to move
Smooth muscles push food through the small intestines
