Question 18

Question
How do the circulatory, respiratory, digestive, and excretory systems work together to supply nutrients to the body's cells and to remove waste products? The [blank_start]respiratory[blank_end] system and [blank_start]digestive[blank_end] system provide the body with oxygen and nutrients. The [blank_start]circulatory[blank_end] system transports oxygen and nutrients to body cells and carries away waste products. The [blank_start]respiratory[blank_end] system expels carbon dioxide, a gaseous waste product, from the body. The [blank_start]excretory[blank_end] system removes other waste products from the body.
Answer
  • respiratory
  • circulatory
  • circulatory
  • respiratory
  • digestive
  • respiratory
  • excretory
  • digestive
  • excretory
  • circulatory

Question 19

Question
The immune system is important because it [blank_start]defends[blank_end] the body against disease-causing organisms such as [blank_start]bacteria[blank_end] and [blank_start]viruses[blank_end].
Answer
  • defends
  • bacteria
  • viruses

Question 20

Question
The skin is very important because it provides [blank_start]communication[blank_end] with the outside world through [blank_start]sensory[blank_end] receptors and [blank_start]protects[blank_end] the body from its surroundings.
Answer
  • communication
  • sensory
  • protects

Question 21

Question
How do the skeletal and muscular systems work together to allow movement? The [blank_start]skeletal[blank_end] system gives support and [blank_start]rigidity[blank_end] to the body and provides attachment points for [blank_start]muscles[blank_end]. The [blank_start]muscular[blank_end] system moves the body by pulling on [blank_start]bones[blank_end].
Answer
  • skeletal
  • muscular
  • rigidity
  • muscles
  • bones

Question 22

Question
List five to eleven important organs (in alphabetical order) once thought to be vestigial (having become functionless in the course of evolution.) 1. [blank_start]appendix[blank_end] 2. coccyx (tailbone) 3. cuspid (canine teeth) 4. parathyroid gland 5. [blank_start]pineal[blank_end] gland 6. pituitary gland 7. third molar ([blank_start]wisdom[blank_end] teeth) 8. thymus 9. thyroid 10. [blank_start]tonsils[blank_end] 11. "yolk sac" of embryo
Answer
  • appendix
  • wisdom
  • tonsils
  • pineal

Question 23

Question
The [blank_start]appendix[blank_end] contains much lymphatic tissue, which probably helps to protect the body against infection, especially in the early years of life. The [blank_start]thyroid gland[blank_end] produces hormones that are important in the growth an development of the body; regulates the amount of calcium in the blood; and its primary responsibility is to regulate metabolic rate. The [blank_start]parathyroid glands[blank_end] produce hormones that regulate the amount of calcium, magnesium, and phosphate ions in the blood. The [blank_start]pituitary gland[blank_end] is the 'master gland' of the body. It regulates growth of the body and other bodily functions.
Answer
  • appendix
  • thyroid gland
  • parathyroid glands
  • pituitary gland

Question 24

Question
The [blank_start]pineal[blank_end] gland produces the hormone melatonin, which regulates cycles of sleep and wakefulness. Muscles attached to the [blank_start]coccyx[blank_end] (tailbone) allow us to stand in an upright position. These [blank_start]muscles[blank_end] also aid in the elimination of wastes. [blank_start]Tonsils[blank_end] help promote good health by destroying harmful bacteria. The [blank_start]thymus[blank_end] serves as the center where T cells (white blood cells that help fight bacteria and viruses) mature and are "trained".
Answer
  • pineal
  • thymus
  • coccyx
  • radius
  • femur
  • Thymus
  • Tonsils
  • thymus
  • tonsil
  • tendons
  • muscles

Question 25

Question
The [blank_start]third[blank_end] molars (wisdom teeth) provide a surface to grind food into tiny bits to prepare it for proper digestion. The [blank_start]cuspids[blank_end] (canine teeth) tear large pieces of food into smaller pieces. The "yolk sac" of the embryo serves as an early source of [blank_start]nutrients[blank_end] and blood cells; it contains cells that later turn into part of the embryo's developing reproductive system and GI tract.
Answer
  • third
  • second
  • incisors
  • cuspids
  • nutrients
  • nerves

Question 26

Question
Why are there few positive feedback mechanisms in the body? Generally, maintaining homeostasis requires [blank_start]reversing[blank_end] the effects of changes in the body; in contrast, a positive feedback mechanism maintains or [blank_start]increases[blank_end] the effects of a change.
Answer
  • reversing
  • increases
