• Which, if any, of the following statements about the respiratory system are true?
• The respiratory system consists of all the organs involved in breathing.
• Organs included in the respiratory system are the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchiand

lungs.

• The respiratory system conveys oxygen into our bodies and removes carbon dioxide from

Our bodies.

• All of the Above.

D All of the statements are true.

• The system maintains the body’s balance through the release of

directly into the bloodstream.

• The gastrointestinal system maintains the body’s balance through the release of hormonesdirectly

into the bloodstream.

• The endocrine system maintains the body’s balance through the release of oxygen directlyinto the

bloodstream.

• The digestive system maintains the body’s balance through the release of hormones directlyinto the

bloodstream.

• The endocrine system maintains the body’s balance through the release of hormones directlyinto the

bloodstream.D The endocrine system maintains the body’s balance through the release of hormones directlyinto the bloodstream.

3. Among others, the endocrine system includes:

• The pituitary gland
• The thyroid gland
• The adrenal glands 1 / 3

• All of the Above.

D

All of the above. The endocrine system includes:

• The pituitary gland
• The thyroid gland
• The adrenal glands

• are contractile organs that cause movement when stimulated; the threetypes

are , , and .

• Muscles are expansion organs that cause movement when stimulated; the three types aresmooth,

cardiac, and skeletal.

• Muscles are contractile organs that cause movement when stimulated; the three types aresmooth,

cardiac, and skeletal.

• Muscles are contractile organs that cause movement when stimulated; the three types are

semipermeable, cardiac, and skeletal.

• Muscles are contractile organs that cause movement when stimulated; the three types are

respiratory, cardiac, and skeletal.B Muscles are contractile organs that cause movement when stimulated; the three types are smooth, cardiac, and skeletal.

• Which of the following is not a function of the skeletal system?
• Providing the shape and form of our bodies
• Supporting and protecting the body
• Producing Blood
• Storing vitamins

D Storing vitamins is not a function of the skeletal system.

• What is the number of bones included in the human skeletal system?
• 412
• 103
• Over 300
• 206

D There are 206 bones in the skeletal system.

• are connected to by , and are connected to each otherby

.

• Muscles are connected to bones by tendons, and bones are connected to each other byligaments. 2 / 3

• Tendons are connected to bones by ligaments, and bones are connected to each other bytendons.
• Muscles are connected to bones by ligaments, and bones are connected to each other bytendons.
• Ligaments are connected to bones by tendons, and bones are connected to each other bybands.

A Muscles are connected to bones by tendons, and ligaments connect bones to each other.Note: Muscles that cause movement of a joint are connected to two different bones and contract to pull them together.An example would be the contraction of the biceps and a relaxation of the triceps. This produces a bend at the elbow. The contraction of the triceps and relaxation of the biceps produces the effect of straightening the arm.

• The consists of all the organs involved in the formation and release of urineand

includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra.

• The digestive system consists of all the organs involved in the formation and release of urineand

includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra.

• The reproductive system consists of all the organs involved in the formation and release ofurine

and includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra.

• The renal system consists of all the organs involved in the formation and release of urine andincludes

the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra.

• The kidney system consists of all the organs involved in the formation and release of urineand

includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra.C The renal system consists of all the organs involved in the formation and release of urine andincludes the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra.

• is a classification of organisms into different categories based on theirphysical

characteristics and presumed natural relationship.

• Biology
• Taxonomy
• Grouping
• Nomenclature

B Taxonomy is a classification of organisms into different categories based on their physical characteristics and presumed natural relationship.

• The order of the hierarchy of levels in the biological classification of

organisms is:

• Kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species
• Phylum, kingdom, class, order, family, genus, and species
• Order, phylum, class, kingdom, family, genus, and species
• Kingdom, phylum, order, class, family, genus, and species
