12
The space between neurons, where signals within the human body get exchanged, is called:
synapsis
synapse
neuron gap
snap systems
13
The major function of the kidneys is to:
filter wastes and byproducts
exchange gases
carry blood back to the heart
break down nutrients
14
When a soccer player kicks a ball, which two systems work directly with the muscular system?
nervous and skeletal
digestive and respiratory
immune and excretory
circulatory and integumentary
15
A system is working with the skeletal system by assisting in the creation of red blood cells.
This system is the circulatory system.
This system is the digestive system.
This system is the respiratory system.
This system is the nervous system.
16
Which of the following helps to produce urine in humans and other mammals?
bladder
ureter
kidneys
urethra
17
What kind of muscle tissue can be found in this system?
epithelial
smooth
cardiac
skeletal
18
Which function requires the muscular, skeletal, and nervous system to work together?
absorption of nutrients
movement of appendages
completion of blood circulation
regulation of hormones
19
Some runners eat pasta before a race. Pasta is broken down into simple sugars the body can use.
This describes a process of the digestive system.
This describes a process of the muscular system.
This describes a process of the nervous system.
This describes a process of the endocrine system.
20
Which of the following pairs of systems work together to prepare and distribute food for cells?
nervous and respiratory
nervous and excretory
digestive and circulatory
digestive and endocrine
21
When food substances mix with gastric juices in the stomach this is an example of:
digestion
chemical digestion
mechanical digestion
improper digestion
22
When playing capture the football, the skin helps to ...
maintain oxygen levels in the blood
transport nutrients to muscles
sense small changes in the heart rate
regulate body temperature
23
Muscles use glycogen sources. What will be produced once the glycogen sources become depleted?
red blood cells
lactic acid
oxygen
glucose
24
Why is it important for artery walls to be thicker & more elastic than those of veins?
to stop the blood from going into the capillaries
to reduce cholesterol levels in the blood
to resist the higher pressure from the blood
to prevent blood from flowing backwards in the vessels
25
What kind of gas does blood PICK UP in the lungs?
oxygen
carbon monoxide
water vapor
carbon dioxide
26
Which best describes how the circulatory and respiratory system interact?
heart removes wastes from the lungs
the heart pumps air into the blood through the lungs
oxygen is transferred to the bloodstream from the lungs
oxygen enters the bloodstream directly from the nose
27
How are tissues and organs related?
groups of organs form cells, which make up a single tissue
groups of tissues form cells, which make up a single organ
groups of organs work together to make up a single tissue
groups of tissues work together to make up a single organ
28
Use the diagram. What can be concluded about humans from the diagram?
Humans need twice as much air as food.
Humans have a single intake structure for food and air.
Humans use the same organs for respiration and digestion.
Human lungs are important in digestion.
