How do the circulatory system and immune system work together to respond to an injury?
Increased blood flow kills healthy cells which prevents infection at the site of the injury.
Increased blood flow removes infected cells from the body at the site of the injury.
Increased blood flow carries white blood cells to the site of the injury.
Increased blood flow allows for an increase in the exchange of O2 and CO2 at the site of the injury.
Which two body systems must directly interact for vertebrate organisms to exchange gases?
Skeletal system and muscular system
Excretory system and reproductive system
Circulatory system and respiratory system
Digestive system and immune system
Kidneys are part of the excretory system in a human body. They purify the impure blood and send it back to the rest of the body. Which system is mainly responsible for the transport of plasma to the kidneys?
Respiratory system
Circulatory system
Muscular system
Nervous system
What two human systems work together to provide body cells with a constant supply of oxygen while removing carbon dioxide waste products?
Nervous and endocrine
Muscular and skeletal
Respiratory and circulatory
Excretory and integumentary
Health-care workers are exposed to many different types of pathogenic and nonpathogenic microorganisms. Which body systems work together to protect the body from pathogens?
Muscular and vascular
Digestive and excretory
Circulatory and immune
Endocrine and reproductive
Which of the following correctly describes an interaction that occurs between two body systems of a rabbit that helps the rabbit outrun a pursuing coyote?
The skeletal system releases additional calcium, and the circulatory system retains more sodium in the blood to provide muscles with ions for contraction.
The digestive system increases the rate of digestion, and the excretory system ceases to provide tissues with more nutrients.
The respiratory system increases the breathing rate, and circulatory system increases blood pressure to provide tissues with more oxygen.
The endocrine system releases hormones that prepare the immune system to deal with possible injuries.
Supports the body, is the site for muscle attachment, and forms blood cells; bones, joints, and cartilage make up this system.
Integumentary System
Skeletal System
Muscular System
Nervous System
Acts as a barrier, regulates temperature, and includes sensory receptors; skin is the major organ.
Integumentary System
Skeletal System
Endocrine System
Digestive System
Causes movement by pulling on the bones, stabilizes body position, and generates heat; each muscle is an organ.
Skeletal System
Muscular System
Integumentary System
