Biology Quiz on Systems and Processes

How does the circulatory system work with the digestive system?

• By eliminating body waste such as urine

• by transporting nutrients absorbed from the food to the rest of the body

• by facilitating the movement of food through the digestive system

• by eliminating carbon dioxide and providing oxygen needed for cells to convert nutrients to usable energy

Where does the complete digestion of food take place?

• mouth

• stomach

• small intestines

• large intestines

How does the liver help in the assimilation process?

• The liver secretes bile.

• The liver converts glucose to glycogen.

• The liver removes excess amino acids.

• The liver converts protein to an amino acid

Which of this shows how the respiratory system aid in digestion?

• By eliminating body waste such as urine

• to deliver nutrients absorbed from the food to the rest of the body

• by facilitating the movement of food through the digestive system

• by eliminating carbon dioxide and providing oxygen needed for cells to convert nutrients to usable energy

What role does the stem play in transport?

• It produces sugars through photosynthesis.

• It absorbs carbon dioxide for cellular respiration.

• It stores excess water in specialized cells called stomata.

• It contains vascular bundles to move materials between roots and leaves.

How do roots directly support the transport system?

• By producing glucose through photosynthesis.

• By transporting sugars to the leaves via phloem.

• By absorbing water and minerals from the soil.

• By releasing oxygen into the atmosphere.

Which statement best describes how plant organs collaborate in the transport system?

• Roots absorb sunlight, stems store water, and leaves produce minerals.

• Roots absorb water/minerals, stems transport via vascular bundles, and leaves produce sugars.

• Leaves transport water to roots, stems absorb CO₂, and roots release oxygen.

• Stems perform photosynthesis, roots store sugars, and leaves absorb nutrients.

Which leaf function is critical for the transport system?

• Storing starch in the root system.

• Loading sugars into phloem and transpiring water to pull xylem sap upward.

• Absorbing nitrogen directly from the air.

• Anchoring the plant in the soil.

If a pea plant with yellow seeds (YY) is crossed with a pea plant with green seeds (yy), what will be the genotype of the F1 generation?

• YY

• Yy

• yy

• Both YY and Yy

The vascular bundle acts as the transport system in plants. Which of this allows the transfer of sugar in bidirectional motion?

• xylem

• phloem

• stem

• leaves
