VERIFIED QUESTIONS & DETAILED
EXPLANATIONS GRADED A+
A group of cells of the same type form a(n):
organ. organism. atom. tissue. organ
system. - correct answer-tissue.
Which system complements the circulatory system and involves the spleen?
The urinary system.
The lymphatic system.
The digestive system. The
endocrine system.
The reproductive system. - correct answer-The lymphatic system.
The lymphatic system complements the circulatory system by returning blood back to the blood ve
ssels, and consists of lymph nodes, lymph vessels, and lymphoid organs such as the spleen and ton sils.
A group of tissues working together for a specific function form a(n):
organ. organism. positive
feedback system. organ system.
organelle. - correct answer-organ.
Which of the following statements regarding responsiveness, or irritability, is FALSE?
Responsiveness, or irritability, is a necessary life function.
, All body cells are irritable to some extent.
Because nerve cells are slightly irritable and communicate rapidly with each other via hormones, t he
nervous system bears the major responsibility for responsiveness.
You do not need to think about responsiveness, such as involuntarily pulling your hand away from a
painful stimulus.
None of the statements is false. - correct answer-
Because nerve cells are slightly irritable and communicate rapidly with each other via hormones, th e
nervous system bears the major responsibility for responsiveness.
The ability of the body to maintain a relatively stable internal environment is referred to as:
equilibrium. homeostasis. metabolism. negative
feedback. positive feedback. - correct answer-
homeostasis.
This refers to maintaining a relatively stable internal environment even though the outside world is
continuously changing.
The anatomical term meaning away from the midline is
distal.
inferior.
lateral.
medial. proximal. - correct
answer-lateral.
The anatomical term meaning close to the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk is:
distal.
inferior.
lateral.
