Trashketball 1: Regulation & Reproduction

An increase in the amount of testosterone hormones in a male’s blood during puberty causes an increase in bone density. This allows the bones to absorb much more force without breaking. This demonstrates the effect of the endocrine system on the –

• skeletal system

• muscular system

• lymphatic system

• nervous system

Excess water is removed from the blood by the kidneys. This demonstrates the excretory system working with which of the following systems?

• digestive system

• muscular system

• respiratory system

• circulatory system

Which body system works with the endocrine system to distribute hormones?

• nervous

• circulatory

• digestive

• skeletal

One of the primary roles of the reproductive organs is the production of which of the following kinds of specialized cells?

• gamete cells

• nervous cells

• epithelial cells

• Helper T cells

• reproductive

• endocrine

• circulatory

• digestive

• respiratory

• muscular

In females, the ovaries serve a vital role as part of which of the two following systems?

• reproductive and muscular systems

• circulatory and endocrine systems

• endocrine and reproductive systems

Hormones are made by several glands in the brain. The brain communicates with the body primarily through the actions of what two body systems?

• endocrine and nervous systems

• nervous and skeletal systems

• endocrine and integumentary systems

• muscular and nervous systems

Which of the following scenarios demonstrates a direct interaction between the muscular system and the reproductive system?

• Oxygen is absorbed at a faster rate by the mother during labor

• Contractions force a baby through the birth canal

• Hormones are released to cope with the birthing pains

• Heat released by muscles causes the body to sweat during labor

Which of the following levels of organization lists the levels in order from the most complex level to the simplest level?
