Front

How does the Integumentary System contribute to homeostasis?

Back

The Integumentary System contributes to homeostasis by regulating body temperature and protecting against pathogens.

Front

What role do sweat glands play in the Integumentary System?

Back

Sweat glands help regulate body temperature through the process of sweating.

Front

What is the difference between voluntary and involuntary muscles?

Back

Voluntary muscles are under conscious control (e.g., skeletal muscles), while involuntary muscles operate without conscious control (e.g., cardiac and smooth muscles).

Front

How do muscles work to produce movement?

Back

Muscles work to produce movement by contracting and pulling on bones, which act as levers.

Front

What is the significance of maintaining posture in the Muscular System?

Back

Maintaining posture is significant as it helps keep the body aligned and balanced, preventing injury.
